LDA (Lane Departure Alert with Yaw Assist
Function)
When driving on highways and freeways with white (yellow) lane
lines, this function alerts the driver when the vehicle might depart from
its lane or course* and provides assistance by applying a brake force
to keep the vehicle in its lane or course*.
The LDA system recognizes white
(yellow) lane lines or a course*
using the front camera. Addition-
ally, it detects preceding vehicles
using the front camera and radar.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass,
soil, or a curb
: If equipped
Summary of functions
WARNING
■ Before using LDA system
● Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. The LDA system does not auto-
matically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by paying careful attention to the surround-
ing conditions and operating the steering wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such
as from driving for a long period of time.
● Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
● When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system
off.

lines that are white).
● The white (yellow) lines cross over a curb, etc.
● The vehicle is driven on a bright surface, such as concrete.
● If the edge of the road is not clear or straight.
● The vehicle is driven on a surface that is bright due to reflected light, etc.
● The vehicle is driven in an area where the brightness changes suddenly,
such as at the entrances and exits of tunnels, etc.
● Light from the headlights of an oncoming vehicle, the sun, etc. enters the
camera.
● The vehicle is driven on a slope.
● The vehicle is driven on a road which tilts left or right, or a winding road.
● The vehicle is driven on an unpaved or rough road.
● The traffic lane is excessively narrow or wide.
● The vehicle is extremely tilted due to carrying heavy luggage or having
improper tire pressure.
● The distance to the preceding vehicle is extremely short.
● The vehicle is moving up and down a large amount due to road conditions
during driving (poor roads or road seams).
● When driving in a tunnel or at night with the headlights off or when a head-
light is dim due to its lens being dirty or it being misaligned.
● The vehicle is struck by a crosswind.
● The vehicle has just changed lanes or crossed an intersection.
● Tires which differ by structure, manufacturer, brand or tread pattern are
used.
● Snow tires, etc. are equipped.

■ Warning message
If the following warning message is displayed on the multi-information dis-
play, and the LDA indicator illuminates in yellow, follow the appropriate trou-
bleshooting procedure. Also, if a different warning message is displayed,
follow the instructions displayed on the screen.
● “LDA Malfunction Visit Your Dealer”
The system may not be operating properly. Have the vehicle inspected by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
● “Lane Departure Alert Unavailable”
• The system is temporarily canceled due to a malfunction in a sensor
other than the front camera. Turn the LDA system off, wait for a little
while, and then turn the LDA system back on.
• The system is temporarily unavaila ble as the vehicle repeatedly departs
from its lane or course* in a short period of time. Turn the engine switch
to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or off
(vehicles with smart entry & start system), and then turn it to the “ON”
position (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with smart entry & start system) again.
● “LDA Unavailable at Current Speed”
The function cannot be used as the vehicle speed exceeds the LDA opera-
tion range. Drive slower.

RSA (Road Sign Assist)
The RSA system recognizes spe-
cific road signs using the front
camera and/or navigation system
(when data is available) 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.
: If equipped
Summary of function
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.
3624-5. Using the driving support systems
HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
When the front camera recognizes a sign, and/or information of a sign
is available from the navigation system, the sign will be displayed on
the multi-information display.
● When the driving support sys-
tem information is selected, a
maximum of 3 signs can be dis-
played. ( P. 151)
● When a tab other than the driv-
ing support system information
is selected, only a recognized
speed limit sign, a no-entry
sign* (when notification is nec-
essary), expressway sign, high-
way sign or Residential area
sign will be displayed.
( P. 151)
A no overtaking sign and a speed limit sign with supplemental mark are
not displayed. However, if signs other than speed limit signs are recog-
nized, they will be displayed in an overlapping stack under the current
speed limit sign.

Driving
HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
In the following situations, the RSA system 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 no-entry sign and detects that
the vehicle has entered a no-entry area based on the map informa-
tion of the navigation system, the no-entry sign flashes and a
buzzer will sound. (For vehicles with navigation system)
● If it is detected that your vehicle is overtaking when a no overtaking
sign is displayed on the multi-information display, 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 indication may
not operate properly.
■ Setting procedure
Setting for “RSA” in of the multi-information display is set to “On”
( P. 151)
■ 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 front camera is misaligned due to a strong impact being applied to the
sensor, etc.
● Dirt, snow, stickers, etc. are on the windshield 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, 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 front camera for a short amount of time.
● The driving scene (turning, lane change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.
