■Warning message in radar cruise mode (if equipped)
In the following cases, the warn ing message may not be displayed even if vehicle-to-vehi-
cle distance decreases:
●When your vehicle and the vehicle ahead are traveling at the same speed or the vehicle
ahead is traveling more quickly than your vehicle
●When the vehicle ahead is traveling at a very low speed
●Immediately after cruise control speed is set
●At the instant the accelerator pedal is depressed
■Open door warning message (GS350/GS200t only)
The open door warning message continues to display until a door or the trunk is fully
closed, even if the engine switch is turned off. However, approximately 20 minutes after a
door or the trunk is not fully closed, the battery-saving function operates and the display
turns off even though a door or the trunk is not fully closed.
■Warning buzzer
In some cases, the buzzer may not be heard because of noisy place or an audio sound.
