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.

Conventional Cruise Control
Conventional Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. It can be used to travel at a con-
stant speed by maintaining the vehicle speed that was set by the driver. Please remember
that you should not exceed posted speed limits.
About Conventional Cruise Control
WARNING
•When Conventional Cruise Control is functioning, the system does not per-
form tracking control to maintain following distance, as when using Adap-
tive Cruise Control.
Strive for safe driving and operate the brake pedal to decelerate the vehi-
cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi-
cle in front.
• Under the following conditions, do not use the Conventional Cruise
Control. Doing so may result in an accident.
- Roads with heavy traffic or roads with sharp curves You may fail to drive at a speed that is appropriate for the road condi-
tions, possibly resulting in an accident.
- Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or slippery road surfaces The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle.
- Steep downhill grades The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.
- On a steep continuous downhill grade The brakes may overheat.

track the vehicle in front is not performed. Operate the accelerator and brake
pedals as necessary.
NOTE
•On a downhill grade, automatic braking may operate in order to maintain
the set vehicle speed.
• When driving on a curve, the vehicle may not accelerate, or may deceler-
ate, even if the set speed is higher than the current vehicle speed.
• To return to Adaptive Cruise Control use, cancel the Conventional Cruise
Control then briefly press the (following distance setting) switch.
