• When driving in inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a
sandstorm
• When the vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc. from a vehicle ahead
• When driving through steam or smoke
• When driving in a place where the surrounding brightness changes sud-
denly, such as at the entrance or exit of a tunnel
• When a very bright light, such as the sun or the headlights of oncoming
traffic, shines directly into the camera sensor
• When the surrounding area is dim, such as at dawn or dusk, or while at
night or in a tunnel
• After the engine has started the vehicle has not been driven for a certain
amount of time
• While making a left/right turn and for a few seconds after making a left/
right turn
• While driving on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve
• If your vehicle is skidding

● 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 multimedia sys-
tem using map data.
■ When driving vehicle in country with different speed unit
Since RSA recognizes signs based on the set unit of the meter, it is neces-
sary to change the set unit of the meter. Adjust the set unit of the meter to the
speed unit of signs in the current location. ( P. 684)
■ Turning the system on/off
Use the meter control switches to select while the vehicle is stopped and
press , and select and press . ( P. 141)
■ Speed limit sign display

enable the Stop & Start system and
the Stop & Start cancel indicator
will turn off.
■Automatic reactivation of the Stop & Start system
Even if the Stop & Start system is disabled by the Stop & Start can-
cel switch, it will be automatically re-enabled once the engine
switch is turned to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without smart
entry & start system) or off (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem), and then the engine is started.
■If the Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed while the vehicle is
stopped
● When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, pressing
the Stop & Start cancel switch will restart the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned off), the engine will not be stopped.
● With the Stop & Start system disabled, pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch will re-enable the system but not stop the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned on), the engine will be stopped.
If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the vehicle is
on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent rolling
backwards until the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
● This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep incline.
● Sound may be generated by the brakes, but this is not a malfunc-
tion.
● The brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur,
but these are not malfunctions.

Press the DPF system switch.
Vehicles without multi-information display
The DPF system warning light will change from solid to slow flashing, and
the idling engine speed will increase.
Vehicles with multi-information display
The DPF system warning message
shown in the illustration appears
on the display, and the idling
engine speed will increase.
Regeneration will take around 30 - 40 minutes to complete.*2
When the DPF system warning light or the DPF system warning mes-
sage goes out, the idling engine speed will have finished returning to
normal.
The DPF system switch may not operate when the vehicle is higher
than 4000 m (13123 ft.) above sea level.
*1: Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to depress the accelera-
tor pedal until the engine speed is increased to 3000 rpm. If the engine
coolant temperature or exhaust gas tem perature is low, it may take a long
time to regenerate, or regeneration may be impossible.
*2: Time required for regeneration differs in accordance with the outside tem-
perature. Also, if the engine speed is still approximately 2000 rpm 10 min-
utes after pressing the DPF system switch, the exhaust gas temperature
may be low. In this case, depress the accelerator pedal to run the engine
at approximately 3000 rpm for a while.
