Driving
■There is no vehicle ahead
Your vehicle maintains the set speed without 
having to keep your foot on the brake or 
accelerator pedal.
If there previously was a vehicle detected 
ahead that kept your vehicle from traveling at 
the set speed, ACC with LSF accelerates your 
vehicle to the set speed, and then maintains it.
■When you depress the accelerator pedal
You can temporarily increase th e vehicle speed. In this case, there is no audible or 
visual alert even if a vehicle is in the ACC with LSF range.
ACC with LSF stays on unless you cancel it.  Once you release the accelerator pedal, 
the system resumes an appropriate speed for keeping the following interval while a 
vehicle ahead is within the ACC with LSF range.
■A vehicle detected ahead is within ACC with LSF  range and slows to a stop
Your vehicle also stop s, automatically. The 
Stopped message appears on the driver 
information interface.
When the vehicle ahead of you starts again, 
the vehicle icon on the driver information 
interface blinks. If you press the  RES/+ or –/
SET  button, or depress the accelerator pedal, 
ACC with LSF operates again within the prior 
set speed.
1 When in Operation
Limitations
You may need to use the brake to maintain a safe

conditions. 2 ACC with LSF Conditions and Limitations  
P. 421
3WARNING
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped 
while the ACC with  LSF system is 
operating can result in the vehicle 
moving without operator control.
A vehicle that moves without operator 
control can cause a crash, resulting in 
serious injury or death.
