■Lane departure alert func-
tion
When the system determines
that the vehicle might depart
from its lane
*, a warning is dis-
played on the multi-information
display, and either a warning
buzzer will sound or the steering
wheel will vibrate to alert the
driver.
When the warning buzzer sounds
or the steering wheel vibrates,
check the area around your vehicle
and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to
the center of the lane.
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane and that the possibility of a col-
lision with an overtaking vehicle in
the adjacent lane is high, the lane
departure alert will operate even if
the turn signals are operating.
*: May recognize the boundaries between the asphalt and the side
of the road, such as grass, soil, or
the curb, to be road lanes
■Steering assist function
When the system determines
that the vehicle might depart
from its lane, the system pro-
vides assistance as necessary
by operating the steering wheel
in small amounts for a short
period of time to keep the vehi-
cle in its lane.
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane and that the possibility of a col-
lision with an overta king vehicle in
the adjacent lane is high, the steer-
ing assist function will operate even
if the turn signals are operating.

control continues to keep your vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is ope rated and your vehicle moves to an over-
taking lane while driving at 50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehi cle will accel-
erate to help to overt ake a passing vehicle.
The system’s identification of what is an overtaking lane may be determined
solely based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left side
driver position versus right side driver position.) If the vehi cle is driven to a
region where the overtaking lane is on a different side from wh ere the vehi-
cle is normally driven, the vehicle may accelerate when the tur n 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 right 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 constan t speed cruising.
1Press 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

trol.
If the cruise cont rol main switch is
pressed and held for 1.5 seconds
or more, the syste m turns on in
constant speed control mode. (
