WARNING

Do not rely completely on the MRCC with
Stop & Go function:

The MRCC with Stop & Go function system
has detection limitations depending on the
type of vehicle ahead and its conditions,
the weather conditions, and the road
conditions. Additionally, the system may be
unable to decelerate sufficiently to avoid
hitting the vehicle ahead if the vehicle
ahead applies the brakes suddenly or
another vehicle cuts into the driving lane,
which could result in an accident.
Always drive carefully and verify the
surrounding conditions and depress the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safe distance from vehicles
ahead or on-coming vehicles.

Do not use the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system in the following locations.
Using the MRCC with Stop & Go function
system at the following locations may
result in an unexpected accident:

General roads other than highways
(Driving under these conditions using the
MRCC with Stop & Go function system is
not possible.)

Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy and there is
insufficient space between vehicles.

Roads where frequent and repetitive
acceleration and deceleration occur
(Driving under these conditions using the
MRCC with Stop & Go function system is
not possible).

When entering and exiting interchanges,
service areas, and parking areas of
highways (If you exit a highway while
headway control is in use, the vehicle
ahead will no longer be tracked and your
vehicle may accelerate to the set speed).

Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound
roads (Tires could spin causing you to
lose vehicle control, or the stop hold
control may not operate.)

Long, descending slopes (to maintain
distance between vehicles, the system
automatically and continuously applies
the brakes which could result in the loss
of brake power.)

Two-wheeled vehicles such as
motorcycles or bicycles are ahead.

Slopes with a steep gradient (The vehicle
ahead may not be detected correctly,
your vehicle may slide while stopped by
the stop hold control, and it may
accelerate suddenly after it starts
moving.)
