2-4. Using other driving systems
LKA (Lane-Keeping Assist)
: If equipped
While driving on a freeway or motor highway that has lane markings,
this system recognizes the lanes using a camera as a sensor to
assist the driver with staying in the lane. The LKA system has two
functions.
■ Lane departure warning function
If the system judges that the vehicle may deviate from its lane, it
alerts the driver using rapid be eping, indications on the multi-
information display, and a sensory warning
* given via the steer-
ing wheel.
*: A slight steering torque is applied for a short period of time in
the direction of the center of the lane.
■ Lane keeping assist function
This function will be active when the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode of the cruise control ( P. 270) is set with vehicle
speed above approx. 50 mph (approx. 75 km/h) and while the
lane departure warning function is active. When the lane keep-
ing assist function is active , a slight steering torque will be
applied, to help the driver mainta in the vehicle inside the lane.

536 5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
CAUTION
■Replacing a flat tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area around
the brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet
or other body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to
loosen and the tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 76 ft•lbf (103
N•m, 10.5 kgf•m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
• When installing a tire, only use wheel nuts that have been specifically designed for that wheel.
• If there are any cracks or deformations in the bolt screws, nut threads or bolt holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install the wheel nuts with the tapered end facing inward. ( P. 452)
■
After using the tools and jack
Before driving, make sure all the tools and jack are securely in place in
their storage location to reduce the po ssibility of personal injury during a
collision or sudden braking.
■When stowing the flat tire
●Make sure the rear seatbacks are in their original position.
●Secure it using a tire tie-down belt. Otherwise, the flat tire may fly out
in case of sudden braking or an a ccident, resulting in death or serious
injury.
