WARNING
The tyre replacement indicator is not a substitute
for regular tyre checks, including tyre pressure
checks. See “Wheels and tyres” in the “8. Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section. Many factors
including tyre inflation, alignment, driving habits
and road conditions affect tyre wear and when
tyres should be replaced. Setting the tyre re-
placement indicator for a certain driving distance
does not mean your tyres will last that long. Use
the tyre replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tyre checks. Failure
to perform regular tyre checks, including tyre
pressure checks could result in tyre failure. Seri-
ous vehicle damage could occur and may lead to
a collision, which could result in serious personal
injury or death.
3. Other indicator:
This indicator appears when the customer set time
comes for replacing items other than the engine oil,
fuel filter and tyres. You can set or reset the dis-
tance for replacing the items.

ficient for driving, top up the engine oil with the rec-
ommended engine oil. “Engine oil” in the “8. Main-

If this warning is displayed, stop the vehicle with the
engine idling, as soon as it is safe to do so. Then if
the warning turns off, you can continue driving.
21. [4WD tyre size incorrect] warning
This warning may appear if there is a large differ-
ence between the diameters of the front and rear
wheels and tyres. Pull off the road in a safe area,
with the engine idling. Check that all the tyre sizes
are the same, that tyre pressures are correct and
that the tyres are not excessively worn.

intended as an aid to careful driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, and observe all road regulations that
currently apply, including looking out for road
signs.
•The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system
may not function properly under the following
conditions:
•When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the
windscreen in front of the TSR camera unit.
•When the headlights are not bright due to
dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not ad-
justed properly.
•When strong light enters the camera unit.
(For example, the light directly shines on
the front of the vehicle at sunrise or sun-
set.)
•When a sudden change in brightness oc-
curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
•In areas not covered by the navigation sys-
tem.
•If there are deviations in relation to the
navigation, for example due to changes in
the road routing.
•When overtaking buses or trucks with
speed stickers.
Turning the TSR system on and off
Turning the LDW system on or of is done using the
[Settings] menu in the vehicle information display.
For details, see “Vehicle information display” in the

tance] key.
2. Touch [Traffic Sign] to turn the system ON/OFF.
System temporarily unavailable
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under high
temperature conditions (over approximately 40 C

deactivated automatically. The [Not available high
cabin temperature] warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display.
Action to take:
When the interior temperature is reduced, the TSR
system will resume operating automatically.
System Malfunction
If the TSR system malfunctions it will be turned off
automatically and the system [Malfunction]/[System
error] warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
Action to take:

The TSR uses the same multi-sensing front camera
unit that is used by the Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) system, located in front of the interior rear
view mirror. For maintenance of the camera, see
“Multi-sensing camera unit maintenance” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.

The keyfob may not work properly if:
•The keyfob battery is low.
See “Integrated keyfob/Intelligent Key battery
replacement” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section for keyfob battery replace-
ment instructions and the required battery type.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-5

•The MOD system might detect flowing water
droplets on the camera lens, white smoke
from the exhaust, moving shadows, etc.
•The MOD system may not function properly
depending on the speed, direction, distance
or shape of the moving objects.
•If your vehicle sustains damage to the parts
where the camera is installed, leaving it mis-
aligned or bent, the sensing zone may be al-
tered and the MOD system may not detect
objects properly.
•When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
Camera maintenance
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera, the
MOD system may not operate properly. Clean the
camera.
