After the camera sensor recognizes a sign, it is displayed on the multi-
information display when the vehicle passes the sign.
● When the driving assist system
information is selected, a maxi-
mum of 3 signs can be dis-
played. ( P. 332)
● When other than the driving
assist system information is
selected, a speed limit sign or
an all canceled sign can be dis-
played. ( P. 332)
A no overtaking sign and a speed
limit sign with supplemental mark
are not displayed. However, if
signs other than speed limit signs
are recognized, they are men-
tioned in a stack under the current
speed limit sign.

■Automatic turn-off of RSA sign display
One or more signs automatically turn off in the following situations.
● A new sign is not recognized for a certain distance.
● The road changes due to a left or right turn, etc.
■ Conditions in which the function may not operate or detect correctly
In the following situations, RSA does not operate normally and may not rec-
ognize signs, display the incorrect sign, etc. However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
● The camera sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact being applied to
the sensor, etc.
● Dirt, snow, stickers, etc., are on the windshield near the camera sensor.
● In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
● Light from an oncoming vehicle, the sun, etc., enters the camera sensor.
● The sign is dirty, faded, tilted or bent, and if an electronic sign, the contrast
is poor.
● All or part of the sign is hidden by the leaves of a tree, a pole, etc.
● The sign is only visible to the camera sensor for a short amount of time.
● The driving scene (turning, lane change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.
● Even if it is a sign not appropriate for the currently traveled lane, such a sign
exists directly after a freeway branches, or in an adjacent lane just before
merging.
● Stickers are attached to the rear of the preceding vehicle.
● A sign resembling a system compatible sign is recognized.
● The vehicle is driven in a country with a different direction of traffic.
● Side road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight
of the camera sensor) while the vehicle is traveling on the main road.
● Roundabout exit road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if posi-
tioned in sight of the camera sensor) while traveling on a roundabout.
● The speed information displayed on the meter and that displayed on the
navigation system (if equipped) may be different due to the navigation sys-
tem using map data.

WARNING
■To avoid inadvertent dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed
range activation
Switch the dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range off using the
“ON-OFF” button when not in use.
■ Situations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed
range
Do not use dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range in any of the
following situations.
Doing so may result in inappropriate speed control and could cause an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury.
● Roads where there are pedestrians, cyclists, etc.
● In heavy traffic
● On roads with sharp bends
● On winding roads
● On slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow
● On steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between sharp up
and down gradients
Vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when driving down a steep hill.
● At entrances to freeways and highways
● When weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sen-
sors from detecting correctly (fog, snow, sandstorm, heavy rain, etc.)
● When there is rain, snow, etc., on the front surface of the radar sensor or
camera sensor
● In traffic conditions that require frequent repeated acceleration and decel-
eration
● When your vehicle is towing a trailer or during emergency towing
● When an approach warning buzzer is heard often

This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehicles
up to approximately 100 m (328 ft.) ahead, determines the current
vehicle-to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suit-
able following distance from the vehicle ahead.
Note that vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long
downhill slopes.

When constant speed control mode is selected, your vehicle will main-
tain a set speed without controlling the vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
Select this mode only when vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
does not function correctly due to a dirty radar sensor.
With the cruise control off,
press and hold the “ON-OFF”
button for 1.5 seconds or more.
Immediately after the “ON-OFF”
button is pressed, the radar cruise
control indicator will come on.
Afterwards, it switches to the cruise
control indicator.
Switching to constant speed con-
trol mode is only possible when
operating the lever with the cruise
control off.
Accelerate or decelerate, with
accelerator pedal operation, to
the desired vehicle speed
(above approximately 50 km/h
[30 mph]) and push the lever
down to set the speed.
Cruise control “SET” indicator will
come on.
The vehicle speed at the moment
the lever is released becomes the
set speed.

■Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when
● The shift lever is in D.
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 50 km/h (30 mph).
However, when a preceding vehicle is detected, the dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range can be set even if the vehicle speed is at or
below approximately 50 km/h (30 mph).
■ Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After acceler-
ating, the set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.
■ Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the fol-
lowing situations.
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) when
there are no vehicles ahead.
● The preceding vehicle leaves the lane when your vehicle is following at a
vehicle speed below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph). Otherwise, the sen-
sor can not properly detect the vehicle.
● VSC is activated.
● TRC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC off switch.
● The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
● Pre-collision braking is activated.
● The parking brake is operated.
● The vehicle is stopped by system control on a steep incline.
● The following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system
control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The vehicle has been stopped for about 3 minutes.
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any
other reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

■ Automatic cancelation of constant speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is automatically canceled in the following situa-
tions:
● Actual vehicle speed is more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below
the set vehicle speed.
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
● VSC is activated.
● TRC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC off switch.
● Pre-collision braking is activated.
If constant speed control mode is automatically canceled for any other rea-
son, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■ Warning messages and buzzers for dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are used to indicate a system malfunction or
to inform the driver of the need for caution while driving. If a warning message
is shown on the multi-information display, read the message and follow the
instructions.
■ When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depending on the conditions, operate the
brake pedal when deceleration of the system is insufficient or operate the
accelerator pedal when acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types of vehicles, the
approach warning ( P. 345) may not be activated.
● Vehicles that cut in suddenly
● Vehicles traveling at low speeds
● Vehicles that are not moving in the same lane
