Driving
 When the accelerator pedal is
depressed
When a curve is detected, the
vehicle speed will begin being
reduced. When the curve ends,
the vehicle speed reduction will
end.
Depending on the situation, the
vehicle speed will then return to the
set vehicle speed.
In situations where vehicle-to-vehi-
cle distance control needs to oper-
ate, such as whe n a preceding
vehicle cuts in front of your vehicle,
the curve speed r eduction function
will be canceled.
■Situations in which the curve
speed reduction function may
not operate
In situations such as the following,
the curve speed r eduction 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 your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 50 mph (80 km/h)
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 accel-
erate up to the set speed to
assist in overtaking.
The system’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-ha nd drive). If the
vehicle is driven in a location where
the passing lane i s 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 traf-
fic location, but is being driven in a
left-hand traffic location. The vehi-
cle may accelera te when the turn
signal lever is operated to the right.)
If your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) or
more and the lane is changed to
that with a vehicle traveling slower
than your vehicle, when the turn
signal lever is operated the vehicle
will gradually decelerate to assist in
changing lanes.

Emergency Driving
Stop System
The emergency driving stop
system is a system which
automatically decelerates
and stops the vehicle within
its lane if the driver
becomes unable to con-
tinue driving the vehicle,
such as if they have suf-
fered a medical emergency,
etc.
During LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist) control, if the sys-
tem does not detect driving
operations, such as if the
driver is not holding the
steering wheel, and deter-
mines the driver is not
responsive, the vehicle will
be decelerated and stopped
within its current lane to
help avoid a collision or
reduce the impact of a colli-
sion.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver. Pay
careful attent ion to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving. The emer-
gency driving stop system is
designed to provide support in
an emergency where it is diffi-
cult for the dri ver to continue
driving, such as if they have had
a medical emergency. It is not
designed to support driving
while drowsy or in poor physical
health, or inattentive driving.
●Although the emergency driv-
ing stop system is designed to
decelerate the vehicle within its
lane to help avoid or help
reduce the impact of a collision
if the system determines that it
is difficult for the driver to con-
tinue driving, its effectiveness
may change according to vari-
ous conditions. Therefore, it
may not always be able to
achieve the same level of per-
formance. Also, if the operating
conditions are not met, this
function will not operate.
●After the emergency driving
stop system operates, if driving
becomes possible again, imme-
diately begin driving again or, if
necessary, park the vehicle on
the shoulder of the road and set
a warning reflecto r and flare to
warn other drivers of your
stopped vehicle.
