• When driving on a hill
• If the radar sensor or front camera is mis- aligned
●In some situations such as the following,
sufficient braking force may not be
obtained, preventing the system from
performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to their full extent, such as when the brake
parts are extremely cold, extremely hot,
or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively worn,
improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery surface
■If VSC is disabled
●If VSC is disabled ( P.299), the pre-col-
lision brake assist and pre-collision brak-
ing functions are also disabled.
●The PCS warning light will turn on and
“VSC Turned Off Pre-Collision Brake
System Unavailable” will be displayed on
the multi-information display.
*: If equipped
When the system detects a vehicle
approaching from the left or right in
front of your vehicle when approaching
an intersection, a notification will be
displayed on the head-up display and
panoramic view monitor
*.
*: Refer to “NAVIGATION AND MULTI-
MEDIA SYSTEM OWNER’S MAN-
UAL”.
When the system determines that your
vehicle may be about to enter an inter-
section even though a vehicle is
approaching from the left or right in
front of your vehicle, a buzzer will
sound and a message will be displayed
on the multi-information display to
urge you to depress the brake pedal.
 Head-up display
FCTA (Front Cross Traffic
Alert)*
When approaching an intersection
at low speed, the radar sensors on
the front side of the vehicle can
detect approaching vehicles to the
left and right of the front of the vehi-
cle. In this case, the head-up display
is used to inform the driver of
detected vehicles.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of the
function
The driver is solely responsible for safe
driving. Always driv e safely, taking care
to observe your surroundings.
The FCTA system is a supplementary
system that informs the driver of vehicles
approaching from the left and right of the
front of the vehicle.
Do not overly rely on the FCTA system.
Over reliance on the system may lead to
an accident, resulting in death or serious
injury.
The details of the warning display may
differ from the actual traffic conditions.
Although the warnin g display will stop
being displayed after a certain amount of
time, this does not indicate that vehicles
or pedestrians are no longer around your
vehicle.

■If the PCS warning light illuminates and
a message is displayed on the
multi-information display
The system may be temporarily unavailable
or may be malfunctioning.
When driving on highways and free-
ways with white (yellow) lane lines, this
function alerts the driver when the
vehicle might depart from its lane or
course
* and provides assistance by
operating the steering wheel to keep
the vehicle in its lane or course
*. Fur-
thermore, the system provides steering
assistance when dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range is operat-
ing to keep the vehicle in its lane and
when changing lanes (vehicles with
Lexus Safety System + A).
The LTA system recognizes white (yel-
low) lane lines or a course
* using the
front camera. Additionally, it detects
preceding and surrounding vehicles
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System +
A) using the front camera and radar.

Functions included in LTA system

2304-5. Using the driving support systems
■Steering assist function
When the system determines that the
vehicle might depart from its lane or
course
*, the system provides assis-
tance as necessary by operating the
steering wheel in small amounts for a
short period of time to keep the vehicle
in its lane.
If the system detect s that the steering
wheel has not been operated for a fixed
amount of time or the steering wheel is not
being firmly gripped, a warning is displayed
on the multi-information display and the
function is temporarily canceled. If the
steering assist function is canceled, release
the steering wheel and then grip it again to
enable the function.
Vehicle with BSM: When the system deter-
mines that the vehicle might depart from its
lane and that the possibility of a collision
with an overtaking vehicle in the adjacent
lane is high, the steeri ng assist function will
operate even if the turn signals are operat-
ing.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as grass, soil, or a curb
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the vehicle is swaying within a
lane, the warning buzzer will sound and
a message will be displayed on the
multi-information display to alert the
driver.

Driving■Lane centering function
This function is linked with dynamic
radar cruise control with full-speed
range and provides the required assis-
tance by operating the steering wheel
to keep the vehicle in its current lane.
When dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is not operating, the lane
centering function does not operate.
In situations where the white (yellow) lane
lines are difficult to see or are not visible,
such as when in a traffic jam, this function
will operate to help follow a preceding
vehicle by monitoring the position of the
preceding vehicle.
If the system detect s that the steering
wheel has not been operated for a fixed
amount of time or the steering wheel is not
being firmly gripped, a warning is displayed
on the multi-information display and the
function is temporarily canceled.
■Lane change assist function (vehi-
cles with Lexus Safety System + A)
This function is linked to the dynamic
radar cruise control with full-speed
range and provides assistance for per-
forming lane changes by operating the
steering wheel when you hold the turn
signal lever partway (lane change posi-
tion). ( P.175)
When lane change assist function is
operating, the acceleration and decel-
eration of the vehicle is controlled
while the preceding vehicle and vehi-
cles driven in the lane toward which the
turn signal is oper ated are monitored.
When the lane center ing function is not
operating, the lane change assist function
will not operate.
The lane change assist function should not
be operated when ch anging lanes on a
road that is diverging or merging.
