■Enabling/disabling the pre-crash safety system
The pre-crash safety system can be enabled/disabled on ( P. 121,
129) of the multi-information display. The system is automatically enabled each time the engine switch is turned to IGNI-
TION ON mode.
If the system is disabled, the PCS
warning light will turn on and a mes-
sage will be displayed on the multi-
information display.
■Changing the pre-crash warning timing
The pre-crash warning timing can be changed on ( P. 121, 129) of
the multi-information display.
The operation timing setting is retained when the engine switch is turned off.
Far
The warning will begin to operate
earlier than with the default timing.
Middle
This is the default setting.
Near
The warning will begin to operate
later than with the default timing.

: If the turn signal indicator is not operated when changing lanes, the mark does not dis-
play.

:On some models
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.
● On some models: When the RSA system recognizes a no-entry sign and
detects that the vehicle has entered a no-entry area based on the map infor-
mation of the navigation system, the no-entry sign flashes.
Depending on the situation, traffic environment (traffic direction, speed , unit)
may be detected incorrectly and a warning display may not operate properly.
■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.
Warning display

3344-5. Using the driving support systems
GS350_200t_GS F_OM_OM30F83E_(EE)
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehicles up to
approximately 100 m (328 ft.) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle
following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from
the vehicle ahead.
Note that vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill
slopes.
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance button.
Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-
ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the system
applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this time). The system will respond to
changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance set by the driver. Approach wa rning warns you when the system cannot
decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your ve hicle will also stop (vehicle is stopped by
system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pushing the cruise control lever up
or depressing the accelerator pedal will resume follow-up cruising.
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the set
speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then returns to con-
stant speed cruising.

To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired set speed is dis-
played.
Increases the speed
(Except when the vehicle has been
stopped by system control in vehicle-to-
vehicle distance control mode)
Decreases the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily move
the lever in the desired direction.
Large adjustment: Hold the lever up or
down to change the speed, and release
when the desired speed is reached.
In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the set speed will be increas ed
or decreased as follows:
For Europe
Fine adjustment: By 5 km/h (3.1 mph) *1
or 5 mph (8 km/h) *2
each time the lever is
operated
Large adjustment: Increases or decreases in 5 km/h (3.1 mph) *1
or 5 mph (8 km/h) *2
increments for as long as the lever is held
Except for Europe
Fine adjustment: By 1 km/h (0.6 mph) *1
or 1 mph (1.6 km/h) *2
each time the lever is
operated
Large adjustment: Increases or decreases in 5 km/h (3.1 mph) *1
or 5 mph (8 km/h) *2
increments for as long as the lever is held
In the constant speed control mode ( P. 339), the set speed will be increased
or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By 1 km/h (0.6 mph) *1
or 1 mph (1.6 km/h) *2
each time the lever is
operated
Large adjustment: The speed will continue to change while the lever is held.
