porarily canceled. This warning also oper-
ates in the same way when the driver
continuously operates the steering wheel
only a small amount.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to “Steering wheel vibration”.
●When the system determines that the
vehicle may not turn and instead depart
from its lane while driving around a curve
Depending on the vehicle condition and
road conditions, the warning may not oper-
ate. Also, if the system determines that the
vehicle is driving around a curve, warnings
will occur earlier than during straight-lane
driving.
●When the system determines that the
driver is driving without holding the steer-
ing wheel while the st eering wheel assist
of the steering assist function is operat-
ing.
If the driver continue s to keep their hands
off of the steering wheel and the steering
wheel assist is operating, the buzzer sounds

*: If equipped
When the front camera recognizes a
sign, the sign will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
When the driving support system information is selected, a maximum
of 3 signs can be displayed.
(
P.77)
 When a tab other than the driving
support system information is
selected, only a recognized speed
limit sign or do not enter sign (when
notification is necessary) will be dis-
played. ( P.77)
If signs other than speed limit signs are rec-
ognized, they will be displayed in an over-
lapping stack under the current speed limit
sign.
The following types of road signs,
including electronic signs and blinking
signs, are recognized.
A non-official or a recently introduced traf-
fic sign may not be recognized.
RSA (Road Sign Assist)*
The RSA system recognizes spe-
cific road signs using the front cam-
era to provide information to the
driver via the display.
If the system judges that the vehicle
is being driven over the speed limit,
performing prohibited actions, etc.
in relation to the recognized road
signs, it alerts the driver using a
warning display and warning
buzzer.
WARNING
■Before using the RSA
Do not rely solely upon the RSA system.
RSA is a system which supports the
driver by providing information, but it is
not a replacement for a driver’s own
vision and awareness. Drive safely by
always paying careful attention to the
traffic rules.
Indication on the multi-informa-
tion display
Supported types of road signs

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.
