: Do Not Enter
: Stop
: Yield
In the following situations, the RSA sys-
tem will alert the driver.
When the vehicle speed exceeds
the speed warning threshold of the
speed limit sign displayed, the sign
display will be emphasized and a
buzzer will sound.
When the RSA system recognizes a
do not enter sign and determines
that your vehicle has entered a no-
entry area, the displayed sign will
flash and a buzzer will sound.
Depending on the situation, traffic
environment (traffic direction, speed,
unit) may be detected incorrectly and a
warning display may not operate prop-
erly.

■Automatic turn-off of RSA sign display
In the following situations, a displayed
speed limit sign will stop being displayed
automatically:
●A new sign is not recognized for a certain
distance.
In the following situations, do not enter, stop
and yield signs will stop being displayed
automatically:
●The system determines that your vehicle
has passed the sign.
●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 recognize
signs, display the incorrect sign, etc. How-
ever, this does not indicate a malfunction.
●The front camera is misaligned due to a
strong impact being applied to the sen-
sor, etc.
●Dirt, snow, stickers, etc. are on the wind-
shield near the front camera.
●In inclement weather such as heavy rain,
fog, snow or sand storms
●Light from an oncoming vehicle, the sun,
etc. enters the front camera.
●The sign is dirty, faded, tilted or bent.
●All or part of the sign is hidden by the
leaves of a tree, a pole, etc.
●The sign is only visible to the front camera
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

2344-5. Using the driving support systems
■Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) will operate when
The function will operate when the PKSB
OFF indicator is not illuminated or flashing
( P.66, 67) and all of the following condi-
tions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• The shift position is in R.
• The rear camera sensor detects a pedes- trian behind the vehicle while backing up
and the system determines that the possi-
bility of colliding with the detected
pedestrian is high.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control
is operating.
• The Parking Support Brake determines that an emergency brake operation is
necessary to avoid a collision with a
pedestrian.
■The Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) will stop operating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the
following conditions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected behind your vehicle.
●Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was stopped by brake control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by brake control.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle.
■Detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
The detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians) differs
from the detection area of the RCD func-
tion ( P.216). Therefore, even if the RCD
function detects a pedestrian an alert, the
Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) may no t start operating.
■Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
●Some pedestrians, such as the following,
may not be detected by the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear pedestrians),
preventing the function from operating
properly:
• Pedestrians who are bending forward or squatting
• Pedestrians who are lying down
• Pedestrians who are running
• Pedestrians who suddenly enter the detection area
• People riding a bicycle, skateboard, or other light vehicle
• Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing such as a rain coat, long skirt, etc., making
their silhouette obscure
• Pedestrians whose body is partially hid- den by an object, such as a cart or

mode is selected, eco air conditioning
mode may turn off.
1Press the automatic mode switch or
select “AUTO” on the sub function
menu. (P.255)
2
Press the outside/recirculated air
mode switch to switch to automatic
air intake mode.
The air conditioning system automatically
switches between outside air and recircu-
lated air modes.
3Adjust the temperature setting.
4
To stop the operation, press the off
switch or select “Off” on the sub
function menu. ( P.255)
If the fan speed setting or air flow
modes are operated , the automatic
mode indicator goes off. However,
automatic mode for functions other
than that operated is maintained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically accord-
ing to the temperature setting and the
ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until
warm or cool air is ready to flow immedi-
ately after the automatic mode switch is
pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
Cool air may blow around the upper body
even when the heater is on due to sunlight.
■Windshield fog detection function
When automatic mode is set, the humidity
sensor detects fog on the windshield and
controls the air condit ioning system to pre-
vent fog.
■Automatic mode for air intake control
In automatic mode, the system detects
exhaust gas and other pollutants and auto-
matically switches between outside air and
recirculated air modes.
When the dehumidification function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function. The next time the dehumidification
function is turned off, the AUTO mode for
switching between outside air and recircu-
lated air modes is canceled.
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the air-
flow is given to the front seats, reducing
the airflow and air conditioning effect
WARNING
■To prevent burns (vehicles with wind-
shield wiper de-icer)
Do not touch the glass at lower part of
the windshield or to the side of the front
pillars when the wind shield wiper de-icer
is on.
Using automatic mode
NOTICE
■Humidity sensor
In order to detect fog on the windshield,
a sensor which monitors the temperature
of the windshield, the surround humidity,
etc. is installed.
Follow these points to avoid damaging
the sensor:
●Do not disassemble the sensor
●Do not spray the glass cleaner on the
sensor or subject it to strong impacts
●Do not stick anything on the sensor

3046-1. Maintenance and care
To prevent the hybrid battery (traction
battery) air intake vent from becoming
clogged, clean it periodically.
■Cleaning the air intake vent
Remove the dust from the air intake
vent with a vacuum cleaner etc.
Make sure to only use a vacuum to suck
out dust and clogs. Attempting to blow out
dust and clogs using a compressed air
blow gun, etc. may push it into the air intake
vent. ( P.307)
If dust and clogs cannot be completely
removed with the air intake vent cover
installed, remove the cover and clean the
filter.
■Cleaning the filter
If “Maintenance required for Traction
battery cooling parts See owner’s man-
ual” is displayed on the multi-informa-
NOTICE
■Preventing damage to leather sur-
faces
Observe the following precautions to
avoid damage to and deterioration of
leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from leather
surfaces immediately.
●Do not expose the vehicle to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, espe-
cially during summer.
●Do not place items made of vinyl, plas-
tic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather
surface if the vehicle interior heats up
significantly.
■Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.
Vehicle systems such as the audio system
may be damaged if water comes into
contact with electrical components such
as the audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may also
cause the body to rust.
■When cleaning the inside of the wind-
shield
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the
lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
( P.163)
■Cleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow
●Do not use glass cleaner to clean the
rear window, as this may cause dam-
age to the rear window defogger
heater wires or antenna. Use a cloth
dampened with lukewarm water to
gently wipe the window clean. Wipe
the window in strokes running parallel
to the heater wires or antenna.
●Be careful not to scratch or damage
the heater wires or antenna.
