*: If equippedWhen the front camera recog-
nizes a sign and/or information
of a sign is available from the
navigation system, the sign will
be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display.
When the driving support sys-
tem information is selected, a
maximum of 3 signs can be

 When a tab other than the
driving support system infor-
mation is selected, the follow-
ing types of road signs will be
displayed. ( P.92, 101)
• Speed limit sign
• Do Not Enter sign (when notifica-
tion is necessary)
If signs other than speed limit signs
RSA (Road Sign
Assist)*
The RSA system recognizes
specific road signs using
the front camera and/or nav-
igation system (when speed
limit information is avail-
able) to provide information
to the driver via the display.
If the system judges that the
vehicle is being driven over
the speed limit, performing
prohibited actions, etc.
according to the recog-
nized road signs, it notifies
the driver through a visual
notification and notification
buzzer.
WARNING
■Before using the RSA
Do not rely solely upon the RSA
system. RSA is a system which
supports the driver by providing
information, but it is not a replace-
ment for a driver’s own vision and
awareness. Drive safely by
always paying careful attention to
the traffic rules.
