About EyeSight
EyeSight
EyeSight is a driving support system that uses a range of functions to assist the driver in making decisions in order to provide for more safe and comfortable driving and to reduce driver fatigue. Making use of images created by stereo camera specially designed by SUBARU, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items.
WARNING
Drivers are responsible for driving safely. Always comply with all traffic rules and regulations regardless of the fact that your vehicle is equipped with EyeSight. Always maintain a safe following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and driving conditions, and take necessary actions in order to maintain a safe following distance.
Never attempt to drive relying on EyeSight alone.
EyeSight is intended to assist the driver in making decisions in order to reduce the risk of accidents or damage and lessen the burden on the driver.
When an EyeSight warning is activated, pay attention to what is in front of you and to your surroundings, and take necessary actions. This system is not designed to support driving in poor visibility or in extreme weather conditions, or to protect against careless driving when the driver is not paying complete attention to the road ahead. It also cannot prevent collisions from occurring in all driving conditions.
There are limits to the EyeSight recognition performance and control performance. Be sure to read the instructions for each function before using the system, and always use it properly. Improper use may lead to failure of control performance, which could cause an accident.
Refer to the following pages for each function:
•For the Pre-Collision Braking System, refer to page 24.
•For Adaptive Cruise Control, refer to page 36.
•For Lane Keep Assist, refer to page 56.
•For Pre-Collision Throttle Management, refer to page 64.
•For Lane Departure Warning, refer to page 70.
•For Lane Sway Warning, refer to page 73.
•For Lead Vehicle Start Alert, refer to page 76.
•For Conventional Cruise Control, refer to page 77.
The EyeSight system in your vehicle is designed for use in countries in which traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road. EyeSight for LHD vehicles such as yours is not designed for use in countries in which vehicles are driven on the left-hand side of the road.
•The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below. When these conditions occur, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Also, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control and Conventional Cruise Control.
-The tire pressure is not correct.*1

CAUTION
•The characteristics of the stereo camera are similar to those of human eyes. For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the forward direction have the same effect on the stereo camera. They also make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles and traffic lanes.
•Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the range of the stereo camera’s field of view. Also, after an object enters the range of the camera’s field of view, it may take some time for the system to detect it as a controllable target and to warn the driver.
Low objects surrounding the vehicle cannot be detected.
S01970
•Under the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the system to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and obstacles on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these conditions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time.
-Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particular, the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied, or poorly performing wipers are used.
-When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams of oncoming traffic, etc.)
-When the front windshield washer is in use.
-When raindrops, water drops, or dirt on the windshield are not wiped off sufficiently
-When the windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected, these will reduce the stereo camera's field of view.
-When the vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other factors.
-When the stereo camera’s field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
-When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind, or when the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow, dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
4
-When passing through the entrance or exit of a tunnel
-When the rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (for example a low bed trailer, etc.)
-When the obstacle is a fence, a wall or a shutter, etc. with a uniform pattern (a striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front
-When the obstacle is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front
-When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on
-When driving through a banner or flag, low branches on a tree or thick/tall vegetation
-On steep uphill or downhill grades
-When the stereo camera is obstructed by a hand, etc. (If even one of the lenses are obstructed, the system does not operate properly.)
-When it is completely dark and no objects are detected
-When the area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when completely covered in snow, etc.)
-When accurate detection is not possible due to reflections in the windshield
•Under the conditions listed below, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. If this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the conditions improve.
-The temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle was left in bright sunshine, or the temperature inside the vehicle is low, such as after the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environment.
-Immediately after the engine starts
•Under the conditions listed below, it is difficult to recognize vehicles in front, motorcycles, pedestrians, obstacles on the road, traffic lanes, etc. Also, the EyeSight system may temporarily stop operating. If the EyeSight system repeatedly stops operating several times, contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.
-When the stereo camera lenses are smeared such as from fingerprints.
-When the stereo camera has become misaligned due to a strong impact
•When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system, turn off the Pre-Colli- sion Braking System ( refer to page 34) and the Lane Departure Warning ( refer to page 72), and stop using the Adaptive Cruise Control and Conventional Cruise Control. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.
•When the Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light is illuminated, the PreCollision Braking System may not operate properly. If the indicator light is illuminated, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Also, do not use the Adaptive Cruise Control or Conventional Cruise Control.

CAUTION
•The stereo camera monitors and detects smears or blurs on the front of the camera. However, detection is not 100% accurate.
Under certain conditions, the function may fail to detect smears or blurs on the front of the stereo camera accurately. In addition, this function may not detect that there is snow or ice on the windshield close to the stereo cam-
era. In such conditions, be sure to keep the windshield clean at all times
(indicated by 
). Otherwise the system may not operate correctly. When this function detects that the front of the stereo camera is smeared or blurred, no EyeSight functions can be activated except for Conventional Cruise Control.
•The stereo camera lenses are precision components. Always observe the following precautions especially when handling lenses.
-Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or clean the lenses. Doing so could damage or soil the lens, and lead to improper system performance.
If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU dealer.

EyeSight Functions
EyeSight includes the following functions.
■Pre-Collision Braking System
This function uses a following distance warning feature to warn the driver to take evasive action when there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or obstacle in front of you. If the driver does not take evasive action, the brakes are applied automatically to help reduce vehicle collision damage or, if possible, help prevent a collision.
Refer to page 24.
■Adaptive Cruise Control
This function maintains the set vehicle speed and when there is a vehicle in front in the same traffic lane, it follows the speed of the vehicle in front up to the maximum of the set vehicle speed.
Refer to page 36.
■Lane Keep Assist
This function helps suppress lane drifting by detecting lane markings (e.g., white lines) on highways and roads, and by assisting steering operation.
Refer to page 56.
■Pre-Collision Throttle Management
This function reduces accidental forward movement caused by the select lever being placed in the wrong position or the accelerator pedal being accidentally depressed, or depressed too strongly.
Refer to page 64.
■Lane Departure Warning
This function warns the driver when the vehicle is about to drift off the road.
Refer to page 70.
■Lane Sway Warning
This function warns the driver when it detects vehicle drifting caused by driver fatigue, failure to concentrate on the road, inattention, strong crosswinds or other factors.
Refer to page 73.
11
■Lead Vehicle Start Alert
This function notifies the driver when the vehicle stopped in front starts moving but the driver’s vehicle remains stationary.

Pre-Collision Braking System
When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with an obstacle in front, the EyeSight system helps to prevent or minimize a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Brake Assist will operate in order to help the driver to prevent or minimize the collision.
This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the D , M or N positions.
WARNING
• Never use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Brake Assist to stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on the Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur.
• When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if necessary.
• The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to prevent rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible or to minimize damage and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehicles, things such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be treated as obstacles. However, there may be cases when detection is not possible depending on a variety of conditions*2. For example, when a vehicle is viewed from the side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in reverse, small animals or children, or walls or doors are not likely to be detected.
• The Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it determines that a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong braking force just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on a variety of conditions*2. Because of this, performance of this function will not always be the same.
• When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to operate even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will be canceled if the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed.
• If the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the system may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the automatic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control.
• When the difference in speed with the obstacle in front is the following figure*1 or more, it may not be possible to avoid a collision. Even if the speed difference is the following figure*1 or less, in cases such as when another vehicle cuts in front of you, or in other cases depending on visibility, the condition of road surface and other factors*2, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate. Pre-Collision Brake Assist also may not activate depending on the conditions*2 listed below.
*1: For vehicles: approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h), For pedestrians: approximately 20 MPH (35 km/h)
*2: Conditions
-Distance to obstacle in front of you, speed difference, proximity conditions, lateral displacement (the amount of offset)
-Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
-Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.)
-When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.)
24
-When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian
•A domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.)
•A guardrail, telephone pole, tree, fence or wall, etc.
-Even if the obstacle is a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian, depending on the brightness of the surroundings as well as the relative movement, and aspect or angle of the object, there may be cases when the system cannot detect it.
-When the system determines that operation by the driver (based on accelerator pedal operation, braking, steering wheel angle, etc.) is intended as evasive action
-Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, tire pressure, whether a temporary spare tire is being used, etc.)
-When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc.
-When the brakes are cold due to outside temperature being low or just after starting the engine.
-When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking performance is reduced)
-When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes are wet and braking performance is reduced)
-Recognition conditions of the stereo camera
In particular, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate in the following cases.
•Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
•When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind, or when the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow, dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
•When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
•When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on
•When approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night
•When ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning
•When a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area illuminated by the headlights
•When affected by strong light from the front (for example, sunlight at dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.)
•When the windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected.
•When fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after washer use
•When the target cannot be correctly recognized because the stereo camera’s view is obstructed by water droplets from rain or the window washer, or by the wiper blades.
•When the stereo camera’s field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
