WARNING
■Front camera installation area 
on the windshield
If the system determines that the 
windshield may be fogged up, it 
will automatically operate the 
heater to defog the part of the 
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around 
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as 
touching it may cause burns.

be heard and the brake pedal 
response may change, but this 
does not indicate a malfunction.
●When the system is operating, the 
brake pedal may feel stiffer than 
expected or sink.  In either situa-
tion the brake pedal can be 
depressed further. Further 
depress the brake pedal as nec-
essary.
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system 
uses sensors to detect 
objects ( P.191) in the path 
of the vehicle. When the 
system determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with a detectable 
object is high, a warning 
operates to urge the driver 
to take evasive action and 
the potential brake pressure 
is increased to help the 
driver avoid the collision. If 
the system determines that 
the possibility of a collision 
is extremely high, the 
brakes are automatically 
applied to help avoid the 
collision or help reduce the 
impact of the collision.
The pre-collision system 
can be disabled/enabled 
and the warning timing can 
be changed. ( P.200)

PDA (Proactive driv-
ing assist)
When a detectable object 
(P.212) is detected, the 
proactive driving assist 
operates the brakes and 
steering wheel to help pre-
vent the vehicle from 
approaching too close to 
the object.
WARNING
■For safe use
Driving safely is  solely the respon-
sibility of the driver.
●The proactive driving assist is 
designed to provide some 
assistance for regular braking 
and steering operations, as well 
as helping to prevent the vehicle 
from approaching too close to a 
detectable object. However, the 
scope of this assistance is lim-
ited.
The driver should perform brake 
and steering operations as neces-
sary. Read the following items 
carefully. Do not overly rely on the 
proactive driving assist and 
always drive carefully.( P.213)
●The proactive driving assist is 
not a system which reduces the 
amount of attention necessary 
for safe driving. Even if the sys-
tem is operating correctly, the 
surrounding conditions as rec-
ognized by the driver and 
detected by the system may dif-
fer. It is necessary for the driver 
to pay attention, assess risks, 
and ensure safety. Over-reli-
ance on this system to drive the 
vehicle safely may lead to an 
accident resulting in death or 
serious injury.
●Proactive driving assist is not a 
system which allows for inatten-
tive driving and is not a system 
which assists in poor visibility 
conditions. The driver is solely 
responsible for paying attention 
to their surroundings and driving 
safely.

*: If equipped
When the front camera  detects a sign or information 
of a sign is available from the 
navigation system, the sign 
will be displayed on the dis-
p l a y.
 Multiple signs can be dis-
played.
Depending on the specifications of 
the vehicle, the number of dis-
played signs may be limited.
■Operating conditions of sign 
display
Signs will be displayed when the fol-
lowing conditions are met:
●The system has detected a sign
In the following si tuations, a dis-
played sign may stop being dis-
played:
●When a new sign has not been 
detected for a certain distance
●When the system determines that 
the road being driven on has 
changed, such as after a left or 
right turn
■Situations in which the display 
function may not operate prop-
erly
In the following situ ations, the RSA 
system may not operate properly 
and may not detect signs or may 
display the incorrect sign. However, 
this does not indicate a malfunction.
●When a sign is dirty, faded, tilted 
or bent
●When the contrast of an electronic 
sign is low
●When all or part of a sign is hidden 
by a tree, utility pole, etc.
●When a sign is d etected by the 
front camera for a short amount of 
time
●When the driving state (turning, 
changing lanes, etc.) is judged 
incorrectly
RSA (Road Sign 
Assist)*
The RSA system detects 
specific road signs using 
the front camera and/or nav-
igation system (when speed 
limit information is avail-
able) and warns the driver 
via displays and buzzers.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the 
responsibility of the driver. Pay 
careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to 
ensure safe driving.
●Do not rely solely upon the 
RSA. The RSA assists the 
driver by providing road sign 
information, but it is not a 
replacement for the driver’s own 
vision and awareness. Driving 
safely is solely the responsibility 
of the driver. Pay careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions in order to ensure safe 
driving.
■Situations in which the RSA 
should not be used
●When it is necessary to disable 
the system:  P. 1 8 4

WARNING
●Set the speed appropriately 
according to the speed limit, 
traffic flow, road conditions, 
weather conditions, etc. The 
driver is responsible for confirm-
ing the set speed.
●Even if the system is operating 
correctly, the condition of a pre-
ceding vehicle as recognized by 
the driver and detected by the 
system may differ. Therefore, it 
is necessary for the driver to 
pay attention, assess risks, and 
ensure safety. Over-reliance on 
this system to drive the vehicle 
safely may lead to an accident 
resulting in death or serious 
injury.
■Precautions for the driving 
assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to 
the assistance provided by the 
system. Over-reliance on this sys-
tem may lead to an accident 
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Details of support provided for 
the driver’s vision
The dynamic radar cruise control 
is only intended to help the driver 
in determining the distance 
between the driver’s own vehicle 
and a designated preceding vehi-
cle. It is not a system which allows 
for careless or inattentive driving, 
and is not a system which assists 
in poor visibilit y conditions.
The driver must pay attention to 
their surroundings, even when the 
vehicle stops.
●Details of support provided for 
the driver’s judgement
The dynamic radar cruise control 
determines whether the distance 
between the driver’s own vehicle 
and a designated preceding vehi-
cle is within a set range. It is not 
capable of making any other type 
of judgement. Th erefore, it is 
absolutely necessary for the 
driver to remain vigilant and to 
determine whether or not there is 
a possibility of danger.
●Details of suppor t provided for 
the driver’s operation
The dynamic radar cruise control 
does not include functions which 
will prevent or avoid collisions 
with vehicles ahead of your vehi-
cle. Therefore, if there is ever any 
possibility of danger, the driver 
must take immediate and direct 
control of the vehicle and act 
appropriately in order to ensure 
safety.
■Situations in which the 
dynamic radar cruise control 
should not be used
Do not use the d ynamic radar 
cruise control in the following situ-
ations. As the system will not be 
able to provide appropriate con-
trol, using it may lead to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious 
injury.
●Roads where there are pedes-
trians, cyclists, etc.
●When driving on a highway or 
expressway entrance or exit
●When the approach warning 
sounds frequently
●Situations in which the sensors 
may not operate properly: 
P.188
●Situations in which the lane may 
not be detected: 
P.189

■Accelerating after setting the 
vehicle speed
As with normal dri ving, acceleration 
can be performed by depressing the 
accelerator pedal. After accelerat-
ing, the vehicle will return to the set 
vehicle speed. However, while in 
vehicle-to-vehicle  distance control 
mode, the vehicle speed may 
decrease to below the set vehicle 
speed in order to maintain the dis-
tance from the preceding vehicle.
■When the vehicle  is stopped by 
system control during follow-up 
cruising
●When the “+RES” switch is 
pressed while the vehicle is 
stopped by system control, if the 
preceding vehicle  starts off within 
approximately 3 seconds, fol-
low-up cruising will resume.
●If the preceding vehicle starts off 
within approximately 3 seconds of 
the vehicle being stopped by sys-
tem control, follo w-up cruising will 
resume.
■Automatic cancellation of vehi-
cle-to-vehicle d istance control 
mode
In the following  situations, vehi-
cle-to-vehicle dista nce control mode 
will be canceled  automatically:
●When the brake control or output 
restriction control of a driving sup-
port system operates
(For example: Pre-Collision Sys-
tem, drive-start control)
●When the parking brake has been 
operated
●When the vehicle is stopped by 
system control on a steep incline
●When any of the following are 
detected while the vehicle is 
stopped by system control:
• The driver’s seat belt is unfas- tened
• The driver’s door is opened
• Approximately 3 minutes have  elapsed since the vehicle was 
stopped The parking brake 
may be actived 
automatically.
●Situations in which some or all of 
the functions of the system cannot 
operate:  P. 1 8 9
■Dynamic radar cruise control 
system warning messages and 
buzzers
For safe use:  P. 1 8 4
■Preceding vehicles that the sen-
sor may not detect correctly
In the following situations, depend-
ing on the conditions, if the system 
cannot provide sufficient decelera-
tion or acceleration is necessary, 
operate the brake pedal or accelera-
tor pedal.
As the sensor may  not be able to 
correctly detect th ese types of vehi-
cles, the approach warning 
(  P.226) may not operate.
●When a vehicle cuts in front of 
your vehicle or changes lanes 
away from your vehicle extremely 
slowly or quickly
●When changing lanes
●When a preceding vehicle is driv-
ing at a low speed
●When a vehicle is stopped in the 
same lane as the vehicle
●When a motorcycle  is traveling in 
the same lane as the vehicle
■Conditions under which the 
system may not operate cor-
rectly
In the following situations, operate 
the brake pedal (or accelerator 
pedal, depending on the situation) 
as necessary.
As the sensor may  not be able to 
correctly detect a vehicle, the sys-
tem may not operate properly.
●When a preceding vehicle brakes 
suddenly
●When changing lanes at low 
speeds, such as in a traffic jam
