■Pre-collision warning
When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, a buzzer will sound and a
warning message wil l be displayed
on the multi-information display to
urge the driver to take evasive
action.
■Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, the system applies greater
braking force in relation to how
strongly the brake pedal is
depressed.
■Pre-collision braking
If the system determines that the
possibility of a fr ontal collision is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or reduce the impact of
the collision.
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)*
The pre-collision system uses
a radar sensor and front cam -
era to detect objects ( →P.355)
in front of the vehicle. When
the system determines that the
possibility of a fr ontal collision
with an object is high, a warn -
ing operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action and the
potential brake pressure is
increased to help the driver
avoid the collision. If the sys -
tem determines that the possi -
bility of a fronta l collision with
an object is extremely high,
the brakes are automatically
applied to help avoid the colli -
sion or help reduce the impact
of the collision.
The pre-collision system can be
disabled/enabled and the warn -
ing timing can be changed.

LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist)*
When driving on highways and
freeways with white (yellow)
lane lines, this function alerts
the driver when the vehicle
might depart from its lane or

tance by operating the steering
wheel to keep the vehicle in its
lane or course*. Furthermore,
the system provides steering
assistance when dynamic
radar cruise control with full-
speed range is operating to
keep the vehic le in its lane.

white (yellow) l ane lines or a
course* using the front cam -
era. Additionally, it detects pre -
ceding vehicles using the front
camera and radar.
