Pedestrians
Stationary objects (stopped vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an extremely low speed, the system may not detect it
correctly.
If there is a structure on the road or an object (such as a monorail) at a low height off the
ground in front of the vehicle, the system may operate. Therefore, do not use the TJA.
Do not use the TJA under conditions in which close proximity warnings are frequently
activated.
If it is necessary to accelerate for a lane change or the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly
causing you to close in on the vehicle rapidly, accelerate using the accelerator pedal or
decelerate using the brake pedal depending on the conditions.
While the TJA is in use, any intended engine braking does not occur even if you shift the
selector lever. If deceleration is required, lower the vehicle speed setting or depress the
brake pedal.
While braking by the TJA control is operating, you might hear an operation sound,
however, this does not indicate a problem.
The brake lights turn on while braking by the TJA control is operating, however, they may
not turn on while the vehicle is on a down slope at the set vehicle speed or traveling at a
constant speed and following a vehicle ahead.
Under the following conditions, the TJA may no t be able to detect white (yellow) lines or
vehicles ahead correctly and the TJA may not operate normally.
The forward sensing camera (FSC) cannot recognize the area in front of the vehicle due
to soiling or fog.
The white (yellow) lane lines are less vi sible because of dirt or paint flaking.
White (yellow) lane lines or vehicles ahe ad are less visible because of bad weather
(rain, fog, or snow).
The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from
construction where there might be multiple white (yellow) lane lines, or they are
interrupted.
The camera picks up an obscure line, such as a temporary line being used for
construction, or because of shade, unmelted snow, or grooves filled with water.
The road surface is wet and shiny after rain, or there are puddles on the road.
Heavy luggage is loaded in the luggage compartment or on the rear seat causing the
vehicle to tilt.
A vehicle in front of your vehicle is running near a white (yellow) lane line making it
less visible.
The windshield is dirty or foggy.
The vehicle is driven through an intersection, a junction, or a fork in the road.
While white (yellow) lane lines cannot be detected due to road or weather conditions.
The surrounding brightness suddenly changes such as when entering or exiting a
tunnel.
