vehicle automatically accel-
erates and decelerates to 
match the speed changes of 
the preceding vehicle even 
if the accelerator pedal is 
not depressed. In constant 
speed control mode, the 
vehicle runs at a fixed 
speed.
Use the dynamic radar 
cruise control on freeways 
and highways.

WARNING
■Before using dynamic radar 
cruise control
●Driving safely is the sole 
responsibility of  the driver. Do 
not rely solely on the system, 
and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attent ion to your sur-
roundings.
●The dynamic radar cruise con-
trol provides driving assistance 
to reduce the driver’s burden. 
However, there ar e limitations to 
the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions 
carefully. Do not  overly rely on 
this system and always drive 
carefully.
• When the sensor may not be  correctly detecting the vehicle 
ahead: 
P. 2 2 3
• Conditions under which the  vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode may not function cor-
rectly: 
P. 2 2 4

WARNING
●Set the speed appropriately 
depending on the speed limit, 
traffic flow, road conditions, 
weather conditions, etc. The 
driver is responsible for check-
ing the set speed.
●Even when the system is func-
tioning normally, the condition of 
the preceding vehicle as 
detected by the system may dif-
fer from the condition observed 
by the driver. Therefore, the 
driver must always remain alert, 
assess the danger of each situ-
ation and drive safely. Relying 
solely on this system or assum-
ing the system ensures safety 
while driving can lead to an 
accident, resulting in death or 
serious injury.
●Switch the dynamic radar cruise 
control setting to off, using the 
cruise control main switch when 
not in use.
■Cautions regarding the driv-
ing assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to 
the assistance provided by the 
system.
Failure to do so may cause an 
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
●Assisting the driver to measure 
following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control 
is only intended to help the driver 
in determining the following dis-
tance between the driver’s own 
vehicle and a designated vehicle 
traveling ahead. It is not a mecha-
nism that allows careless or inat-
tentive driving, and it is not a 
system that can assist the driver 
in low-visibilit y conditions. 
It is still necessary for driver to 
pay close attention to the vehi-
cle’s surroundings.
●Assisting the driver to judge 
proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control 
determines whether the following 
distance between the driver’s own 
vehicle and a designated vehicle 
traveling ahead is within a set 
range. It is not capable of making 
any other type of judgement. 
Therefore, it is absolutely neces-
sary for the driver to remain vigi-
lant and to determine whether or 
not there is a possibility of danger 
in any given situation.
●Assisting the driver to operate 
the vehicle
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 
the safety of all involved.

WARNING
■Situations unsuitable for 
dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise 
control in any of the following situ-
ations. 
Doing so may resu lt in inappropri-
ate speed control and could 
cause an accident resulting in 
death or serious injury.
●Roads where there are pedes-
trians, cyclists, etc.
●In heavy traffic
●On roads with sharp bends
●On winding roads
●On slippery roads, such as 
those covered with rain, ice or 
snow
●On steep downhills, or where 
there are sudden changes 
between sharp up and down 
gradients 
Vehicle speed may exceed the 
set speed when driving down a 
steep hill.
●At entrances to freeways and 
highways
●When weather conditions are 
bad enough that they may pre-
vent the sensors from detecting 
correctly (fog, snow, sand-
storm, heavy rain, etc.)
●When there is rain, snow, etc. 
on the front surface of the radar 
or front camera
●In traffic conditions that require 
frequent repeated acceleration 
and deceleration
●During emergency towing
●When an approach warning 
buzzer is heard often

driver position versus right side driver  position.) If the vehicle is driven to a 
region where the overtaking lane is on a different side from where the vehi-
cle is normally driven, the vehicle may  accelerate when the turn signal lever 
is operated in the opposite direction to the overtaking lane (e.g., if the driver 
normally operates the vehicle in a region where the overtaking lane is to the 
right but then drives to a region where the overtaking lane is to the left, the 
vehicle may accelerate when the ri ght turn signal is activated).
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower 
than the set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then 
returns to constant speed cruising.
1 Press the cruise control main 
switch to activate the cruise 
control.
Dynamic radar cruise control indi-
cator will come on and a message 
will be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display. Press the switch 
again to deactivate the cruise con-
trol.
If the cruise control main switch is 
pressed and held for 1.5 seconds 
or more, the system turns on in 
constant speed control mode. 
( P.222)
2 Accelerate or decelerate, 
with accelerator pedal opera-
tion, to the desired vehicle  speed (at or above approxi-
mately 20 mph [30 km/h]) 
and press the “-SET” switch 
to set the speed.
Cruise control “SET” indicator will 
come on.
The vehicle speed at the moment 
the switch is released becomes the 
set speed.
To change the set speed, press 
the “+RES” or “-SET” switch 
until the desired set speed is 
displayed.

Driving
Select a distance from the table 
below. Note that the distances 
shown correspond to a vehicle 
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). 
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance 
increases/decreases in accor-
dance with vehicle speed.
1 Pressing the cancel switch 
cancels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled 
when the brake pedal is depressed.
2Pressing the “+RES” switch 
resumes the cruise control  and returns vehicle speed to 
the set speed.
However, cruise control does not 
resume when the vehicle speed is 
approximately 16 mph (25 km/h) or 
less.
When your vehicle is too close 
to a vehicle ahead, and suffi-
cient automatic deceleration via 
the cruise control is not possi-
ble, the display will flash and the 
buzzer will sound to alert the 
driver. An example of this would 
be if another driver cuts in front 
of you while you are following a 
vehicle. Depress the brake 
pedal to ensure an appropriate 
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
■Warnings may not occur 
when
In the following instances, warn-
ings may not occur even when
