Driving
While driving on a road with
clear white (yellow) lane lines,
the LTA system warns the driver
if the vehicle may deviate from
the current lane
*, and also can
slightly operate the steering
wheel to help avoid deviation
from the lane. Also, while the
dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range is operat-
ing, this system will operate the
steering wheel to maintain the
vehicle’s lane position.
The LTA system recognizes
white (yellow) lane lines
* using
the front camera. Additionally, it
detects preceding vehicles
using the front camera and
radar.
*: May recognize the boundaries between the asphalt and the side
of the road, such as grass, soil, or
the curb, to be road lanes

Assist)
Summary of functions
WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LTA
system. The LTA system does
not automatically drive the vehi-
cle or reduce the amount of
attention that m ust be paid to
the area in front of the vehicle.
The driver must always assume
full responsibilit y for driving
safely by paying careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions and operating the steering
wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must
take adequate breaks when
fatigued, such as from driving
for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate
driving operations and pay care-
ful attention may lead to an
accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●When connecting a trailer which
can be connected with Toyota’s
official TBC ECU, the lane cen-
tering function will be disabled
automatically when LTA detects
a trailer connection.
When other trailer is connected,
turn off the lane centering func-
tion if a trailer is connected and
it is not automatically disabled.
After trailer disconnect and
power switch is turned off, lance
centering function can be turned
on.

■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.
WARNING
●When the vehicle is lifted up,
except in the following cases.
• When using a Toyota official lift kit up to 4 in. (101 mm), includ-
ing tire height. Aftermarket lift

with full-speed range is not operat-
ing, the lane centering function
does not operate.
In situations where the white (yel-
low) lane lines are d ifficult to see or
are not visible, such as when in a
traffic jam, this function will operate
to help follow a preceding vehicle
by monitoring the position of the
preceding vehicle.

Driving
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.
