■Temporary cancellation of functions
When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be temporarily canceled.
However, when the operation conditions are met again, operation of the function is auto-
matically restored. (→P. 3 2 0 )
■Steering control function
Depending on the vehicle speed, lane departure situation, road conditions, etc., the
operation of the functions may not be reco gnized or the functions may not operate.
■Lane departure alert function
The warning buzzer may be difficult to hear due to external noise, audio playback, etc.
Also, it may be difficult to feel steering wheel vibrations due to the road conditions, etc. (if
equipped)
■Hands off steering wheel alert
Except for Israel: When the system determines that the driver has removed their hands
from the steering wheel while the steering co ntrol function is operating, a warning mes-
sage is displayed on the multi-information display.
If the driver continues to keep their hands off of the steering wheel, the buzzer sounds, a
warning message is displayed and the function is temporarily canceled. This alert also
operates in the same way when the vehicle is driven with the steering wheel lightly
gripped. However, depending on the road conditions, etc., the function may not cancel.
For Israel: When the system determines that the driver has removed their hands from the
steering wheel while the lane departure control function or lane centering function is
operating, a warning message is displayed on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds.
■White (yellow) lines are only on one side of road
The LDA system will not operate for the side on which white (yellow) lines could not be
recognized.

RSA (Road Sign Assist)∗
RSA recognizes specific road signs
using the camera sensor and provides
information to the driver via the multi-
information display.
If the system judges that the vehicle is being driven over the speed limit, perform-
ing prohibited actions, etc., in relation to the recognized road signs, it alerts the
driver using a warning display and warning buzzer
*.
*: This setting needs to be customized.

■Before using the RSA
Do not rely solely upon the RSA system. RSA is a system which supports the driver by
providing information, but it is not a replacement for a driver’s own vision and aware-
ness. Drive safely by always paying careful attention to the traffic rules.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an unexpected accident.

After the camera sensor recognizes a sign, it is displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display when the vehicle passes the sign.
●When the driving assist system infor-
mation is selected, a maximum of 3
signs can be displayed.
(→ P. 121, 129)
●When other than the driving assist
system information is selected, a
speed limit sign or an all canceled
sign can be displayed. ( →P. 121, 129)
A no overtaking sign and a speed
limit sign with supplemental mark are
not displayed. However, if signs other
than speed limit signs are recog-
nized, they are mentioned in a stack
under the current speed limit sign.

The following types of road signs, including electronic signs and blinking signs,
are recognized.

In the following situations, the RSA system alerts the driver using a warning dis-
play.
●When the vehicle speed exceeds the speed warning threshold applied to the
speed limit of the sign displayed on the multi-information display, the sign
color becomes inverted.
●If it is detected that your vehicle is overtaking when a no overtaking sign is dis-
played on the multi-information display, the sign flashes.
●When the RSA system recognizes a no-entry sign and detects that the vehicle
has entered a no-entry area based on the map information of the navigation
system, the no-entry sign flashes.
■Automatic turn-off of RSA sign display
One or more signs automatically turn off in the following situations.
●A new sign is not recognized for a certain distance.
●The road changes due to a left or right turn, etc.
■Conditions in which the function may not operate or detect correctly
In the following situations, RSA does not op erate normally and may not recognize signs,
display the incorrect sign, etc. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
●The camera sensor is misaligned due to a st rong impact being applied to the sensor,
etc.
●Dirt, snow, stickers, etc., are on the windshield near the camera sensor.
●In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
●Light from an oncoming vehicle, the sun, etc., enters the camera sensor.
●The sign is dirty, faded, tilted or bent, and if an electronic sign, the contrast is poor.
●All or part of the sign is hidden by the leaves of a tree, a pole, etc.
●The sign is only visible to the camera sensor for a short amount of time.
●The driving scene (turning, lane change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.
●Even if it is a sign not appropriate for the currently traveled lane, such a sign exists
directly after a freeway branches, or in an adjacent lane just before merging.
●Stickers are attached to the rear of the preceding vehicle.
●A sign resembling a system compatible sign is recognized.
●The vehicle is driven in a country with a different direction of traffic.
●Side road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight of the cam-
era sensor) while the vehicle is traveling on the main road.
●Roundabout exit road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight
of the camera sensor) while traveling on a roundabout.
Warning display

3284-5. Using the driving support systems
GS350_200t_GS F_OM_OM30E87E_(EE)
■When driving vehicle in country with different speed unit
Since RSA recognizes signs based on the set unit of the meter, it is necessary to change
the set unit of the meter. Adjust the set unit of the meter to the speed unit of signs in the
current location. (→P. 6 3 4 )
■Turning the system on/off
■Speed limit sign display
If the engine switch was last turned off while a speed limit sign was displayed on the multi-
information display, the same sign displays again when the engine switch is turned to
IGNITION ON mode.
■Customization
Setting (e.g. speeding warning threshold) can be changed.
(Customizable feature: →P. 6 2 8 )
Select on of the
multi-information display (
→P. 121, 129)
Press on the steering wheel.

Dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed
range

In vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehicle automatically acceler-
ates, decelerates and stops to match the speed changes of the preceding vehicle
even if the accelerator pedal is not depressed. In constant speed control mode,
the vehicle runs at a fixed speed.
Use the dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range on freeways and
highways.
