nate using the same lights as the
headlights and illuminate darker
than the headlights.
●To make your vehicle more visible
to other drivers during daytime
driving, the daytime running lights
turn on automatically when all of
the following condi tions are met.
(The daytime running lights are
not designed for use at night.)
• The hybrid system is operating.
• The parking brake is released
• The headlight switch is in the
or
* position
*: When the surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain
on after they illumi nate, even if the
parking brake is set again.
●Daytime running lights can be
turned off by operating the switch.
●Compared to turning on the head-
lights, the daytime running light
system offers gr eater durability
and consumes less electricity, so
it can help improve fuel economy.
■Headlight control sensor
The sensor may not function prop-
erly if an object is placed on the sen-
sor, or anything that blocks the
sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interfere s with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light
and may cause the automatic head-
light system to malfunction.
■Automatic light off system
●When the headlights are on: The
headlights and tail lights turn off
30 seconds after the driver’s door
is opened and clos ed if the power switch is turned to ACC or OFF.
(The lights turn off immediately if
on the key is pressed after all
the doors are closed.)
●When only the tail lights are on:
The tail lights turn off automati-
cally if the power switch is turned
to ACC or OFF and the driver’s
door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the
power switch to ON, or turn the light
switch off once and then back to
or .
■Light reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds when the power
switch is turned t o OFF or ACC and
the driver’s door is opened while the
lights are turned on.
■Automatic headlight leveling
system (if equipped)
The level of the headlights is auto-
matically adjusted according to the
number of passengers and the load-
ing condition of the vehicle to
ensure that the headlights do not
interfere with o ther road users.
■Windshield wiper linked head-
light illumination
When driving during daytime with
the headlight switch turned to , if
the windshield wipers are used, the
headlights will turn o n automatically
after several se conds to help
enhance the visibility of your vehi-
cle.
■12-volt battery-saving function
In order to prevent the 12-volt bat-
tery of the vehicle from discharging,
if the headlights and/or tail lights are
on when the power switch is turned
off the 12-volt battery saving func-
tion will operate and automatically
turn off all the lig hts after approxi-
mately 20 minutes. When the power
switch is turned to ON, the 12-volt
battery-saving function will be dis-
abled.

• When vehicles ahead are repeat-edly detected and then hidden
due to repeated curves, road
dividers or roadside trees
• When a vehicle ahead approaches from a far lane
• When a vehicle ahead is far away
• When a vehicle ahead has no lights
• When the lights of a vehicle ahead are dim
• When a vehicle ahead is reflecting
strong light, such as own head-
lights
• Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly: P. 2 1 1
●The headlights may change to the
low beams if a vehi cle ahead that
is using fog lights without its head-
lights turned on is detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic
signals, and illumi nated billboards
or signs may cause the high
beams to change to the low
beams, or the low beams to
remain on.
●The following may change the tim-
ing at which the headlights
change to the low beams:
• The brightness of lights of vehi-
cles ahead
• The movement and direction of vehicles ahead
• The distance betw een the vehicle
and a vehicle ahead
• When a vehicle ahead only has
lights illuminate d on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradi-
ent, curve, condi tion of the road
surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and amount of luggage
●The headlights may change
between the high beams and low
beams unexpectedly.
●Bicycles and other small vehicles
may not be detected.
●In the following situations, the sys-
tem may not be abl e to correctly
detect the brightness of the sur- roundings. This may cause the
low beams to remain on or the
high beams to flash or dazzle
pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In
such a case, it
is necessary to
manually change between the
high beams and low beams.
• When there are lights similar to headlights or tail lights in the sur-
rounding area
• When headlights or tail lights of vehicles ahead are turned off,
dirty, changing color, or not aimed
properly
• When the headlights are repeat-
edly changing between the high
beams and low beams.
• When use of the high beams is
inappropriate or when the high
beams may be flashing or daz-
zling pedestrians or other drivers.
• When the vehicl e is used in an
area in which vehicles travel on
the opposite side of the road of
the country for which the vehicle
was designed, for example using
a vehicle designed for right-hand
traffic in a left-ha nd traffic area, or
vice versa
• When it is necessary to disable
the system: P. 2 0 7

PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system
uses sensors to detect
objects ( P.213) 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.222)
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.
Never use the pre-collision
system in place of normal
braking operations. This sys-
tem cannot help avoid or
reduce the impact of a colli-
sion in every situation.
Over-reliance on this system
to drive the vehicle safely may
lead to an accident resulting
in death or serious injury.
●Although the pre-collision sys-
tem is designed to help avoid or
help reduce the impact of a col-
lision, its effectiveness may
change according to various
conditions. Therefore, it may not
always be able to achieve the
same level of performance.
Read the followin g items care-
fully. Do not overl y rely on this
system and always drive care-
fully.

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.

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
