Lane Departure Warning
When vehicle speed is approximately 32 MPH
(50 km/h) or more, this function warns the
driver if the system detects that the vehicle is
likely to depart the traffic lane.
When Lane Departure Warning activates, a
buzzer sounds 6 short beeps, and the steer-
ing wheel indicator and right/left lane indica-
tors on the meter display all flash at the same
time. Also, a pop-up screen will be displayed
on the multi function display.

The Lane Departure Warning will activate at a faster rate than usual if lane sway was not
avoided after the warning buzzer activated.
* Refer to page 61.
WARNING
Lane Departure Warning will not operate in all conditions. It also will not auto-
matically return the vehicle to the original lane. If the driver relies only on the
Lane Departure Warning to keep the vehicle in the lane, lane departure may
occur, resulting in an accident.
The Lane Departure Warning activates when it detects lane markings. How-
ever, it is not a function which can detect the edge of a road (shoulders or
side ditches, etc.) and warn the driver.

Conventional Cruise Control
65
Conventional Cruise Control
Conventional Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. It can be used to travel at a con-
stant speed by maintaining the vehicle speed that was set by the driver (approximately 25
MPH (40 km/h) to 90 MPH (145 km/h)). Please remember that you should not exceed
posted speed limits.
About Conventional Cruise Control
WARNING
xWhen Conventional Cruise Control is functioning, the system does not per-
form tracking control to maintain following distance, as when using Adap-
tive Cruise Control.
Strive for safe driving and operate the brake pedal to decelerate the vehi-
cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi-
cle in front.
xUnder the following conditions, do not use the Conventional Cruise
Control. Doing so may result in an accident.
- Roads with heavy traffic or roads with sharp curves
You may fail to drive at a speed that is appropriate for the road condi-
tions, possibly resulting in an accident.
- Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or slippery road surfaces
The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle.
- Steep downhill grades
The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.
- On a steep continuous downhill grade
The brakes may overheat.
- When towing a trailer.
CAUTION
When using Cruise Control, be sure to check the display screen to confirm
which Cruise Control mode is selected: Adaptive Cruise Control or
Conventional Cruise Control.
