WARNING
Always check the surrounding area
visually before actually putting the
vehicle in reverse:
The system is only designed to assist
you in checking for vehicles at the rear
when putting the vehicle in reverse.
Due to certain limitations with the
operation of this system, the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator
lights may not flash or it might be
delayed even though a vehicle is
behind your vehicle. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check
the rear.
RCTA operation
1. The RCTA system operates when the selector lever is shifted to the
reverse (R) position.
2. If there is the possibility of a collision with an approaching
vehicle, the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator lights
flashes and the warning beep is
activated simultaneously.
Rear view monitor (vehicles with
Rear view monitor)
The RCTA warning indication in the
rearview monitor also synchronizes
with the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator light on
the door mirrors.
360°view monitor (vehicles with
360°view monitor)
The RCTA warning indication in the
360°view monitor also
synchronizes with the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator light on the door mirrors.
Function for canceling illumination
dimmer
If the BSM warning indicator lights turn
on when the parking lights are turned
on, the brightness of the BSM warning
indicator lights is dimmed.
If the BSM warning indicator lights are
di fficult to see due to glare from
surrounding brightness when traveling
on snow-covered roads or under foggy
conditions, press the dimmer
cancellation button to cancel the
dimmer and increase the brightness of
BSM warning indicator lights when
they turn on.
Refer to Dashboard Illumination on
page 4-14.
NOTE
The system may operate under the
following conditions even if a vehicle
is not approaching.
An object that re flects the radio
waves of the radar such as a
parked vehicle, guardrail, or wall is
directly next to your vehicle.
A vehicle approaching from the
rear left and right side of your
vehicle slows down.
A vehicle approaching from the
rear left and right side of your
vehicle makes a right or left turn
directly in front of your vehicle.

Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)*
▼ Tra
ffic Jam Assist (TJA)
The TJA is a system designed to reduce
driver fatigue during
traffic jams when
driving on expressways or highways.
The TJA consists of a headway control
function and a steering assist function.
Headway control function
The function performs headway
control to maintain a constant distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle
ahead at a preset vehicle speed
without you having to depress the
accelerator or brake pedal.
Steering assist function
When vehicle lane lines are detected,
the function assists your steering
operation to follow the vehicle lane
lines.
When vehicle lane lines are not
detected, the function assists your
steering operation to follow the
trajectory of the vehicle ahead.
Also refer to the fo llowing information
before using the TJA.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-71.
Refer to Front Radar Sensor on page
4-77.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the TJA and
always drive carefully:
The TJA is not an automated driving
system. Therefore, the function has
limitations. Do not rely completely
on the system and always stay on
course using the steering wheel.
Set a vehicle speed within the speed
limit according to the road
conditions and the weather
conditions.
The TJA may not be able to detect a
vehicle ahead depending on the type
of vehicle ahead and its conditions,
the weather conditions, and the road
conditions. Additionally, the system
might be unable to decelerate
suffi ciently if the vehicle ahead
applies the brakes suddenly or
another vehicle cuts into your lane,
which could result in an accident.
Do not use the system under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident:
The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways and highways.
The vehicle is driven on roads with
sharp curves or with heavy tra ffic
where su fficient distances between
vehicles cannot be kept.
The vehicle is driven on roads where
acceleration and deceleration are
frequently repeated.
The vehicle is exiting the main lane
on an expressway to enter an
interchange, a rest area, or a parking
area.
The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
The vehicle is driven on a long
downslope.
The vehicle is driven on a steep
slope.
A two-wheeled vehicle such as a
motorcycle or bicycle is traveling
ahead.
The vehicle is being towed.
Proximity warnings activate
frequently.

Under bad weather conditions (rain,
fog , and snow).
Tires other than the speci fied size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
Switch the TJA off when it is not being
used.
Leaving the TJA on when it is not in use
is dangerous as it could operate
unexpectedly, resulting in an accident.
Do not get out of the vehicle while
the stop hold control is operating.
Getting out of the vehicle while the
stop hold control is operating is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Before leaving the vehicle, switch the
TJ A off, shift the selector lever to the P
position, and apply the parking brake.
NOTE
The TJA does not operate with the
following objects.
On-coming vehiclesPe d e s t r i a n sStationary objects (such as
stopped vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely low speed, the system may
not detect it correctly.
A brake operation sound may be
heard by the TJA control, however, it
does not indicate a problem.
The brake lights turn on while the
brakes and stop hold control are
operating by the TJA control.
When any of the following
conditions is met, the TJA may not be
able to detect white (yellow) lane
lines or vehicles ahead correctly and
the TJA may not operate normally.
A condition under which the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
cannot detect a target object is
met.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-71.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
cannot recognize the area in front
of the vehicle.
The visibility of white (yellow) lane
lines is poor.
There are multiple white (yellow)
lane lines.
There is a misleading line which
looks like a white (yellow) lane
line.
The distance to the vehicle ahead
is close.
The width of the vehicle lane is
narrow or wide.
A vehicle ahead is driving
erratically.

few seconds after the vehicle ahead
starts moving during stop hold control,
the vehicle-ahead indication on the
multi-information display flashes to
urge you to resume driving. If you still
do not resume driving after the
indicator light flashes, a sound is
activated to urge you to resume

▼360° View Monitor
The 360°View Monitor consists of the
following functions
which assist the
driver in checking the area surrounding
the vehicle using various indications in
the center display and a warning sound
while the vehicle is being driven at low
speeds or while parking.
To p v i e w
The top view displays an image of
the vehicle from directly above on
the center display by combining the
images taken from the 4 cameras set
on all sides of the vehicle. The top
view displays on the right side of the
screen when the front view or rear
view screen is being displayed. The
top view assists the driver in
checking the area surrounding the
vehicle when the vehicle is moving
forward or in reverse.
Front view/front wide view
The image from the front of the
vehicle is displayed on the center
display.
The view from the front assists the
driver in checking the front of the
vehicle by displaying guide lines on
the displayed image taken from the
front of the vehicle.
Side view
The images taken from the front left
and right sides of the vehicle are
displayed on the center display.
The side view assists the driver in
checking the front sides of the
vehicle by displaying guide lines on

Parking sensor
If there are any obstructions near the
vehicle while the top view/side view
is displayed, an obstruction
detection indication turns on around
the bumper in the center display.
The parking sensors use ultrasonic
sensors to detect obstructions
around the vehicle when the vehicle
is driven at low speeds, such as
during garage or parallel parking,
and notifies the driver of the
approximate distance from the
vehicle to the surrounding
obstruction using sound and an
obstruction detection indication.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on
page 4-198.
