The system can detect the fol-
lowing (The detectable objects 
differs depending on the func-
tion.):
Vehicles
 Bicyclists 
Pedestrians
■Pre-collision warning
When the system determines 
that the possibility of a frontal 
collision is high, a buzzer will 
sound and a warning message 
will be displayed on the multi-
information display to urge the 
driver to take evasive action.
“BRAKE!”
■Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines 
that the possibility of a frontal 
collision is high, the system 
applies greater braking force in 
relation to how strongly the 
brake pedal is depressed.
■Pre-collision braking
If the system determines that 
the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is extremely high, the 
brakes are automatically applied 
to help avoid the collision or 
reduce the impact of the colli-
sion.
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system 
uses a radar sensor and 
front camera to detect 
objects ( P.212) in front of 
the vehicle. When the sys-
tem determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with an 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 possi-
bility of a frontal collision 
with an object is extremely 
high, the brakes are auto-
matically applied to help 
avoid the collision or help 
reduce the impact of the col-
lision.
The pre-collision system can 
be disabled/enabled and the 
warning timing can be 
changed. ( P.215)

objects that may contact your 
vehicle, such as thick grass, tree 
branches, or a banner
• When driving through steam or  smoke
• When driving near an object that  reflects radio waves, such as a 
large truck or guardrail
• When driving near a TV tower,  broadcasting station, electric 
power plant, radar equipped vehi-
cles, etc., or other location where 
strong radio waves or electrical 
noise may be present
• When there are many things  which can reflect  the radio waves 
of the radar in the vicinity (tunnels, 
truss bridges, gravel roads, snow 
covered road that have tracks, 
etc.)
• While making a right/left turn,  when an oncoming vehicle or a 
crossing pedestrian has already 
exited the path of your vehicle
• While making a right/left turn,  closely in front of an oncoming 
vehicle or a crossing pedestrian. • While making a 
right/left turn, 
when an oncoming vehicle or a 
crossing pedestrian stops before 
entering the path  of your vehicle
• While making a  right/left turn, 
when an oncoming vehicle turns 
right/left in fron t of your vehicle
• While steering into the direction of  oncoming traffic
■Situations in which the system 
may not operate properly
●In some situations such as the fol-
lowing, an object may not be 
detected by the radar sensor and 
front camera, pre venting the sys-
tem from opera ting properly:
• When a detectable object is 
approaching your vehicle
• When your vehicle or a detectable  object is wobbling
• If a detectable object makes an  abrupt maneuver (such as sudden 
swerving, acceleration or deceler-
ation)
• When your vehicle approaches a  detectable object rapidly
• When a detectable  object is not 
directly in front of your vehicle
• When a detectable  object is near 
a wall, fence, gua rdrail, manhole 
cover, vehicle, steel plate on the 
road, etc.

situations, such as the following, 
the emergency steering assist 
may not operate.
• When the white (yellow) lane lines  are difficult to see, such as when 
they are faint, diverging/merging, 
or a shadow is cast upon them
• When the lane is wider or nar-
rower than normal
• When there is a light and dark pat- tern on the  road surface, such as 
due to road repairs
• When the target is too close
• When there is insufficient safe or  unobstructed space for the vehicle 
to be steered into
• If oncoming vehicle is present
• If VSC function is operating
●In some situations such as the fol-
lowing, sufficien t braking force or 
steering force may not be 
obtained, preventing the system 
from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot  operate to their full extent, such as 
when the brake  parts are 
extremely cold, ext remely hot, or 
wet
• If the vehicle is not properly main- tained (brakes or  tires are exces-
sively worn, imprope r tire inflation 
pressure, etc.)

Depending on the vehicle condition 
and road conditions, the warning 
may not operate. Also, if the system 
determines that the vehicle is driv-
ing around a curv e, warnings will 
occur earlier than  during straight-
lane driving.
●When the system determines that 
the driver is driving without hold-
ing the steering wheel while the 
steering wheel assist of the steer-
ing assist function is operating.
If the driver continues to keep their 
hands off of the steering wheel and 
the steering wheel  assist is operat-
ing, the buzzer sounds and the 
driver is warned. Each time the 
buzzer sounds, the continuing time 
of the buzzer becomes longer.
The buzzer also sounds even if the 
alert type is set to  .
■Vehicle sway warning function

WARNING
●Assisting the driver to operate 
the vehicle
The dynamic radar cruise control 
with full-speed range does not 
include function s which will pre-
vent or avoid collisions with vehi-
cles ahead of your vehicle. 
Therefore, if there is ever any 
possibility of da nger, the driver 
must take immediate and direct 
control of the vehicle and act 
appropriately in order to ensure 
the safety of all involved.
■Situations unsuitable for 
dynamic radar cruise control 
with full-speed range
Do not use dynamic radar cruise 
control with full-speed range in 
any of the following situations. 
Doing so may result 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

with full-speed range can be set 
when
●The shift position is in D.
●The desired set speed can be set 
when the vehicle speed is approx-
imately 20 mph (30 km/h) or more. 
(However, when the vehicle speed 
is set while driving at below 
approximately 20 mph [30 km/h], 
the set speed will be set to 
approximately 20 mph [30 km/h].)
■Accelerating after setting the 
vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by oper-
ating the accelerator pedal. After 
accelerating, the set speed 
resumes. However, during vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode, 
the vehicle spee d may decrease 
below the set speed in order to 
maintain the distance to the preced-
ing vehicle.
■When the vehicle stops while 
follow-up cruising
●Pressing the “+RES” switch while 
the vehicle ahead stops will 
resume follow-up  cruising if the 
vehicle ahead starts off within 
approximately 3 seconds after the 
switch is pressed.
●If the vehicle ahead starts off 
within 3 seconds after your vehicle 
stops, follow-up c ruising will be 
resumed.
■Automatic cancelation of vehi-
cle-to-vehicle d istance control 
mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control 
mode is automatically canceled in 
the following situations.
●VSC is activated.
●TRAC is activated for a period of 
time.
●When the VSC or TRAC system is 
turned off.
●The sensor cannot detect cor-
rectly because i t is covered in 
some way.
●When the brake control or output 
restriction control of a driving sup-
port system operates. (For exam-
ple: Pre-Collision System, Drive-
Start Control)
●The parking brake is operated.

heard and the brake pedal response 
may change, but the se are not mal-
functions.
■Warning messages and buzzers 
for dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are 
used to indicate a system malfunc-
tion or to inform the driver of the 
need for caution while driving. If a 
warning message is shown on the 
multi-information  display, read the 
message and follow the instruc-
tions.( P.210, 451)
■When the sensor may not be 
correctly detecting the vehicle 
ahead
In the case of the following and 
depending on the conditions, oper-
ate the brake pedal when decelera-
tion of the system is insufficient or 
operate the accelerator pedal when 
acceleration is required.
As the sensor may  not be able to 
correctly detect th ese types of vehi-
cles, the approach warning 
(  P.244) may not be activated.
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the 
same lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends 
(trailers with no load on board,
