CAUTION
•In the following situations, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Other-
wise the Pre-Collision Braking System may activate unexpectedly.
- When the vehicle is being towed

Adaptive Cruise Control
33
Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The vehicle in front in the same
traffic lane is detected by means of the stereo cameras, and your vehicle tracks the vehicle
in front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed) while automatically maintaining
a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in front. The system uses
the vehicle’s conventional braking system to stop your vehicle when the vehicle in front is
stopped. The vehicle is capable of being controlled at a speed between approximately 0 and
90 MPH (145 km/h). Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits.Continued on next page Ÿ
WARNING
•This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function
that handles all traffic conditions.
• Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not
intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to
what is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration
while driving, or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to pre-
vent rear-end collisions.
Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following dis-
tance behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings
and the driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other
action as necessary.
• Set the set vehicle speed within a range that is appropriate to the road con-
ditions and surrounding environment.
• Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there
are no malfunctions of the tires or brakes.
Ÿ Refer to the separate “Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
• The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below.
When these conditions occur, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control.

Lane Departure Warning
59
Lane Departure Warning
When vehicle speed is approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h) or more, this function warns the
driver if the system detects that the vehicle is likely to depart the traffic lane.
When Lane Departure Warning activates, a buzzer sounds 6 short beeps, and the steering
wheel indicator and right/left lane indicator on the meter display all flash at the same time.
* The illustration depicts a vehicle departing the left lane.
WARNING
Lane Departure Warning will not operate in all conditions. It also will not auto-
matically return the vehicle to the original lane. If the driver relies only on the
Lane Departure Warning to keep the vehicle in the lane, lane departure may
occur, resulting in an accident.
The Lane Departure Warning activates when it detects lane markings. How-
ever, it is not a function which can detect the edge of a road (shoulders or
side ditches, etc.) and warn the driver.
