Emergency Lane Keeping
(ELK)
*
▼Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK)
The ELK is a system designed to assist
the driver’s steering wheel operation to
avoid danger.
The ELK consists of the Blind Spot
Assist function to prevent your vehicle
from colliding with vehicles on
adjacent lanes, and the Road Keep
Assist function to prevent your vehicle
from deviating from the road.
Refer to Blind Spot Assist on page
4-129.
Refer to Road Keep Assist on page
4-133.
▼
Blind Spot Assist*
The Blind Spot Assist function assists
the driver in avoiding collisions with
vehicles in adjacent lanes (excluding
vehicles approaching in the opposite
direction).
The Blind Spot Assist function detects
white lines (yellow lines) on the vehicle
lane using the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) and detects vehicles on adjacent
lanes using the rear side radar sensors.
If there is a possibility of a collision
with a vehicle in an adjacent lane
when you try to change lanes or if you
may deviate from your lane, it assists
your steering wheel operation to keep
you in the driving lane.
When the steering wheel operation
assist operates, a warning sound and
warning indications on displays alert
the driver of the possibility of a
collision. Furthermore, if the possibility
of a collision increases, a warning
