WARNING
■Before using LDA system
Do not rely solely upon the LDA system.
The LDA system does not automatically
drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of
attention that must be paid to the area in
front of the vehicle. The driver must
always assume full responsibility for driv-
ing safely by paying careful attention to
the surrounding conditions and operat-
ing the steering wheel to correct the path
of the vehicle. Also, the driver must take
adequate breaks when fatigued, such as
from driving for a long period of time.
Failure to perform appropriate driving
operations and pay careful attention may
lead to an accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
■To avoid operating LDA system by
mistake
When not using the LDA system, use the
LDA switch to turn the system off.
■Situations unsuitable for LDA system
Do not use the LDA system in the follow-
ing situations.
The system may not operate properly
and lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are
equipped.
●When the tires have been excessively
worn, or when the tire inflation pres-
sure is low.
●Tires which differ by structure, manu-
facturer, brand or tread pattern are
used.
●Objects or patterns that could be mis-
taken for white (yellow) lines are pres-
ent on the side of the road (guardrails,
curbs, reflective poles, etc.).
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-covered
road.

●Driving safely is th e sole responsibility
of the driver. Do not rely solely on the
system, and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attention to your
surroundings.
●The dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range provides driving
assistance to reduce the driver’s bur-
den. However, there are limitations to
the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions care-
fully. Do not overly rely on this system
and always drive carefully.
• When the sensor ma y not be correctly
detecting the vehicle ahead:
P.182
• Conditions under which the vehi- cle-to-vehicle distance control mode
may not function correctly:
P.182
●Set the speed appropriately depend-
ing on the speed limit, traffic flow, road
conditions, weather conditions, etc.
The driver is responsible for checking
the set speed.
●Even when the system is functioning
normally, the condition of the preced-
ing vehicle as detected by the system
may differ from the condition
observed by the driver. Therefore, the
driver must always remain alert, assess
the danger of each situation and drive
safely. Relying on this system or assum-
ing the system ensu res safety while
driving can lead to an accident, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
