Driving
●When the system determines that the
driver is driving without holding the steer-
ing wheel while the system is operating
If the driver continue s to keep their hands
off of the steering wheel, the buzzer sounds,
the driver is warned and the function is tem-
porarily canceled. This warning also oper-
ates in the same way when the driver
continuously operates the steering wheel
only a small amount.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to “Steering wheel vibration”.
●When the system determines that the
vehicle may not turn and instead depart
from its lane while driving around a curve
Depending on the vehicle condition and
road conditions, the warning may not oper-
ate. Also, if the system determines that the
vehicle is driving around a curve, warnings
will occur earlier than during straight-lane
driving.
●When the system determines that the
driver is driving without holding the steer-
ing wheel while the st eering wheel assist
of the steering assist function is operat-
ing.
If the driver continue s to keep their hands
off of the steering wheel and the steering
wheel assist is operating, the buzzer sounds
and the driver is warned. Each time the
buzzer sounds, the continuing time of the
buzzer becomes longer.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to “Steering wheel vibration”.
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the system determines that the vehi- cle is swaying while the vehicle sway warn-
ing function is operating, a buzzer sounds
and a warning message urging the driver to
rest and the symbol sh
own in the illustration
are simultaneously di splayed on the multi-
information display.
Depending on the vehicle and road condi-
tions, the warning may not operate.
■Warning message
If the following warning message is dis-
played on the multi-in formation display and
the LTA indicator illuminates in orange, fol-
low the appropriate troubleshooting proce-
dure. Also, if a different warning message is
displayed, follow the instructions displayed
on the screen.
●“LTA Malfunction Visit Your Dealer”
The system may not be operating properly.
Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus
dealer.
●“LTA Unavailable”
The system is temporarily canceled due to a
malfunction in a sensor other than the front
camera. Turn the LTA system off, wait for a
little while, and then turn the LTA system
back on.
●“LTA Unavailable at Current Speed”
The function cannot be used as the vehicle
speed exceeds the LTA operation range.

*:If equipped
When the front camera recognizes a
sign, the sign will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
When the driving support system information is selected, a maximum
of 3 signs can be displayed.
(
P.81)
 When a tab other than the driving
support system information is
selected, the following types of road
signs will be displayed. ( P.81)
• Speed limit sign
• Do Not Enter sign (when notification is
necessary)
If signs other than speed limit signs are rec-
ognized, they will be displayed in an over-
lapping stack under th e current speed limit
sign.
The following types of road signs,
including electronic signs and blinking
signs, are recognized.
A non-official or a recently introduced traf-
fic sign may not be recognized.
RSA (Road Sign Assist)*
The RSA system recognizes spe-
cific road signs using the front cam-
era to provide information to the
driver via the display.
If the system judges that the vehicle
is being driven over the speed limit,
performing prohibited actions, etc.
according to the recognized road
signs, it notifies the driver through a
visual notification and notification
buzzer.
WARNING
■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 awareness. Drive safely by
always paying careful attention to the
traffic rules.

driver position.) If the vehicle is driven to a region where the overtaking lane is on a differ-
ent side from where the vehicle is normally driven, the vehicle may accelerate when the
turn signal lever is operated in the opposite direction to the overtaking lane (e.g., if the
driver normally operates the vehicle in a region where the overtaking lane is to the right but
then drives to a region where the overtaking la ne is to the left, the vehicle may accelerate
when the right turn signal is activated).
Example of acceleration
