Lane Departure Warning
When vehicle speed is approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h) or more, this function warns the
driver if the system detects that the vehicle is likely to depart the traffic lane.
When Lane Departure Warning activates, a buzzer sounds 6 short beeps, and the area
around the lane indicator on the departing side flashes in yellow.
* The illustration depicts a vehicle departing the left lane.
WARNING
Lane Departure Warning will not operate in all conditions. It also will not auto-
matically return the vehicle to the original lane. If the driver relies only on the
Lane Departure Warning to keep the vehicle in the lane, lane departure may
occur, resulting in an accident.
The Lane Departure Warning activates when it detects lane markings. How-
ever, it is not a function which can detect the edge of a road (shoulders or
side ditches, etc.) and warn the driver.

Conventional Cruise Control
75
Conventional Cruise Control
Conventional Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. It can be used to travel at a con-
stant speed by maintaining the vehicle speed that was set by the driver. Please remember
that you should not exceed posted speed limits.
About Conventional Cruise Control
WARNING
xWhen Conventional Cruise Control is functioning, the system does not per-
form tracking control to maintain following distance, as when using Adap-
tive Cruise Control.
Strive for safe driving and operate the brake pedal to decelerate the vehi-
cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi-
cle in front.
xUnder the following conditions, do not use the Conventional Cruise
Control. Doing so may result in an accident.
- Roads with heavy traffic or roads with sharp curves
You may fail to drive at a speed that is appropriate for the road condi-
tions, possibly resulting in an accident.
- Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or slippery road surfaces
The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle.
- Steep downhill grades
The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.
- On a steep continuous downhill grade
The brakes may overheat.
CAUTION
When using Cruise Control, be sure to check the EyeSight display area to
confirm which Cruise Control mode is selected: Adaptive Cruise Control or
Conventional Cruise Control.
xIf Adaptive Cruise Control is selected,
“” (Adaptive Cruise Control
indicator) illuminates.
xIf Conventional Cruise Control is selected,
“” (Conventional Cruise
Control indicator) illuminates.
NOTE
xWhen the (CRUISE) switch is first turned on, the Adaptive Cruise
Control is set.
xTo change the Cruise Control mode, press and hold the / (fol-
lowing distance setting) switch for approximately 2 seconds or longer.
(This is effective only when the main Cruise Control is on and neither
Adaptive Cruise Control nor Conventional Cruise Control are set.)
xConventional Cruise Control can be used even when EyeSight is tempo-
rarily turned off.

Conventional Cruise Control

Conventional Cruise Control can be set when the following conditions are met.
- The selector lever is in the position and the paddle shift is not operated.
- The brake pedal is released.

Press the (CRUISE) switch. At this time, (Adaptive Cruise Control) and the
“following distance setting” are displayed on the EyeSight display area of the multi infor-
mation display. The set vehicle speed display will read “- - MPH”.
When the (CRUISE) switch is pressed, the initial cruise control mode is always
Adaptive Cruise Control.
If the switch is pressed once more, the EyeSight display will turn off. It will also automatically
turn off when the engine is stopped.
