mines that the possibility of a colli-
sion with a detected object is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action. If the system
determines that the possibility of a
collision with a detected object is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.

cted, the system will
judge that a passenger is not in the front
passenger seat after the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 12 mph (20
km/h) or more.)
●Rear seats (automatic S-FLOW mode
only): A passenger is judged to be in a
rear seat when the system detects the
opening and closing of a rear door or the
operation of the rear air conditioning sys-
tem (RX350L).
If a passenger is judged to be in the vehicle,
the system will retain the judgement for a
certain amount of time after the engine
