■Operating conditions of function
This function is operable when all of the following conditions are met:
●The LTA system detects lane lines or
the path of preceding or surrounding
vehicles (except when the preceding vehicle is small, such as a motorcy-cle).
●The dynamic radar cruise control is operating.
●The lane width is approximately 3 to 4 m (10 to 13 ft.).
●The turn signal lever is not being oper-ated.
●The vehicle is not being driven around a sharp curve.
●The vehicle is not accelerating or decelerating more than a certain
amount.
●The steering wheel is not being turned
with a large force.
●The hands off steering wheel warning
( P.296) is not operating.
●The vehicle is being driven in the
center of a lane.
■Temporary cancelation of functions
●When the operating conditions are no
longer met, a function may be tempo- rarily canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again,
operation of the function will automati- cally be restored. ( P.295)
●If the operating conditions of a func- tion are no longer met while the func-tion is operating, a buzzer may sound
to indicate that the function has been temporarily canceled.
●The steering assist operation of the function can be overridden by the steering wheel operation of the driver.
■Lane departure warning function
when the LTA is operating
●Even if the LDA warning method is
changed to vibration of the steering wheel, if the vehicle deviates from the lane while the LTA is operating, the
warning buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
●If steering wheel operation equivalent to that necessary for a lane change is
WARNING
■Before using the LTA system
●Do not overly rely on the LTA sys-tem. The LTA system is not a sys-
tem which provides automated assistance in driving and it is not a system which reduces the amount
of attention necessary for safe driv- ing. The driver is solely responsible for paying attention to their sur-
roundings and operating the steer- ing wheel as necessary to ensure safety. Also, the driver is responsi-
ble for taking adequate breaks when fatigued, such as when driv-ing for a long time.
●Failure to perform appropriate driv-ing operations and pay careful
attention may lead to an accident.
●When not using the LTA system,
turn it off using the LTA switch.

The LDA system warns the driver if
the vehicle may deviate from the
current lane or course*, and also
can slightly operate the steering
wheel to help avoid deviation from
the lane or course*.
The front camera is used to detect
lane lines or a course*.
*: Boundary between the asphalt and
grass, soil, etc., or structures, such
as a curb, guardrail, etc.
■Lane departure alert function
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane or course*, a warning is dis-
played on a display, and either a
warning buzzer will sound or the
steering wheel will vibrate to alert
the driver.
Check the area around your vehicle
and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to the
center of the lane or course*.
If the system determines that the vehi-
cle may collide with a vehicle in an
adjacent lane, the lane departure alert
will operate even if the turn signals are
operating.
*: Boundary between the asphalt and
grass, soil, etc., or structures, such
as a curb, guardrail, etc.
■Lane departure prevention
function
If the system determines that the
vehicle is likely to depart from its
lane or course*, it provides assis-
tance through steering wheel oper-
ations to help avoid deviation from
the lane or course.
If the system determines that the steer-
ing wheel has not been operated for a
certain amount of time or the steering
wheel is not being firmly gripped, a
warning message may be displayed
and a warning buzzer may sound to
alert the driver.
If the system determines that the vehi-
cle may collide with a vehicle in an
adjacent lane, the lane departure pre-
vention function will operate even if the
turn signals are operating.
*: Boundary between the asphalt and

one side, the system will operate only for the recognized side.)• The lane width is approximately 3 m
(9.8 ft.) or more. • The turn signal lever is not being oper-ated. (Except when a vehicle is
detected in the direction that the turn signal lever is operated.)• The vehicle is not being driven around
a sharp curve. • The vehicle is not accelerating or decelerating more than a certain
amount.

Dynamic radar cruise
control
This dynamic radar cruise con-
trol detects the presence of
vehicles ahead, determines the
current vehicle-to -vehicle dis-
tance, and operates to main-
tain a suitable distance from
the vehicle ahead. The desired
vehicle-to-vehicle distance can
be set by operating the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance switch.
Use the dynamic radar cruise
control only on highways and
expressways.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the responsi- bility of the driver. Do not overly rely
on this system, and pay careful attention to the surrounding condi-tions in order to ensure safe driving.
●The dynamic radar cruise control provides driving assistance to
reduce the driver’s burden. How- ever, there are limitations to the assistance provided. Read the fol-
lowing items carefully. Do not overly rely on this system and always drive carefully.
Conditions under which the system may not operate correctly: P.313
●Set the speed appropriately accord- ing to the speed limit, traffic flow,
road conditions, weather condi- tions, etc. The driver is responsible for confirming the set speed.

■Situations in which the curve speed reduction function may not operate
In situations such as the following, the curve speed reduction function may not operate:
●When the vehicle is being driven around a gentle curve
●When the accelerator pedal is being depressed
●When the vehicle is being driven around an extremely short curve
If a detected vehicle in the passing
lane is traveling slower than your
vehicle, overtaking will be sup-
pressed.
The overtaking prevention function will
not operate if the passing lane is con-
gested or vehicles are traveling at low
speeds.
This function is not available for vehi-
cles without a DCM.
If your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 80 km/h (50 mph) or
more and a lane change to the
passing lane is performed, when
the turn signal lever is operated and
the lane is changed, the vehicle will
accelerate up to the set speed to
assist in overtaking.
For vehicles with a DCM: The system’s
recognition of which lane is the passing
lane is determined by location informa-
tion and the driving condition of sur-
rounding vehicles. The support for lane
change function and overtaking preven-
tion function may not operate if it is diffi-
cult to obtain location information or
there are few surrounding vehicles.
For vehicles without a DCM: The sys-
tem’s recognition of which lane is the
passing lane may be based solely on
the location of the steering wheel in the
vehicle (left-hand drive/right-hand
drive). If the vehicle is driven in a loca-
tion where the passing lane is on the
opposite side of that where the vehicle
was originally sold, the vehicle may
accelerate when the turn signal lever is
operated away from the passing lane.
(e.g. The vehicle was manufactured for
a right-hand traffic location, but is being
driven in a left-hand traffic location. The
vehicle may accelerate when the turn
signal lever is operated to the right.)
If your vehicle is being driven at approx-
imately 80 km/h (50 mph) or more and
the lane is changed to that with a vehi-
cle traveling slower than your vehicle,
when the turn signal lever is operated
the vehicle will gradually decelerate to
assist in changing lanes.

BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on the
inner side of the rear bumper
on the left and right side to
assist the driver in confirming
safety when changing lanes.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur- roundings.
●The Blind Spot Monitor is a supple-mentary function which alerts the driver that a vehicle is in a blind
spot of the outside rear view mirrors or is approaching rapidly from
behind into a blind spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot Moni-tor. As the function cannot judge if it
is safe to change lanes, over reli- ance could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
As the system may not function cor- rectly under certain conditions, the
driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
