WARNING
■When driving on slippery road surfaces 
Do not accelerate or shift the shift lever suddenly.  
Sudden  changes  in  engine  braking  may  cause  the  vehicle  to  spin  or  skid, 
resulting in an accident. 
■ To prevent an accident when releasing the shift lock 
Before pressing the shift lock override button, make sure to se t the parking 
brake and depress the brake pedal.  
If the accelerator pedal is accidentally depressed instead of t he brake pedal 
when  the  shift  lock  override  button  is  pressed  and  the  shift  le ver  is  shifted 
out  of  P,  the  vehicle  may  suddenly  start,  possibly  leading  to  a n  accident 
resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ Hybrid battery (traction battery) charge 
If  the  shift  lever  is  in  N,  the  hybrid  battery  (traction  batter y)  will  not  be 
charged. To  help  prevent  the  battery  from  discharging,  avoid  le aving the  N 
position selected for an extended period of time.

■ 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 do es 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. 
● The contrast of electronic sign is low. 
● 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. 
● If  a  sign  not  appropriate  for  the  currently  traveled  lane,  but the  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 sign is recognized. 
● Side road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight 
of the front camera) while the vehicle is traveling on the main  road. 
● Roundabout  exit  road  speed  signs  may  be  detected  and  displayed (if  posi- 
tioned in sight of the front camera) while traveling on a round about. 
● The front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load 
● The surrounding brightness is not sufficient or changes suddenly. 
● When a sign intended for trucks, etc. is recognized. 
● The vehicle is driven in a country with a different direction of traffic. 
● The navigation system map data is outdated. (vehicles with navigation sys- 
tem) 
● The navigation system is not operating. (vehicles with navigation system) 
● The speed information displayed on the meter and on the navigation system 
(if equipped) may be different due to the navigation system usi ng map data.

Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising 
When  a  preceding  vehicle  driving  slower  than  the  set  speed 
appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system aut omatically 
decelerates  your  vehicle.  When  a  greater  reduction  in  vehicle  s peed  is 
necessary,  the  system  applies  the  brakes  (the  stop  lights  will  come  on  at 
this time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of  the vehicle 
ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set  by the driver. 
Approach  warning  warns  you  when  the  system  cannot  decelerate  su ffi- 
ciently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle  ahead. 
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also sto p (vehicle is 
stopped by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off,  pushing the 
cruise control lever up or depressing the accelerator pedal (st art-off opera- 
tion)  will  resume  follow-up  crui sing.  If  the  start-off  operation  is  not  per- 
formed, system control continues to keep your vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves t o an over- 
taking  lane  while  driving  at  80  km/h  (50  mph)  or  more,  the  vehi cle  will 
accelerate to help to overtake a passing vehicle.
The  system’s  identification  of  what  is  an  overtaking  lane  may  b e  deter- 
mined solely based on the location of the steering wheel in the  vehicle (left 
side driver position versus right side driver position.) If the  vehicle is driven 
to a region where the overtaking lane is on a different side fr om where the 
vehicle is normally driven, the vehicle may accelerate when the  turn signal 
lever is operated in the opposite direction to the overtaking l ane (e.g., if the 
driver normally operates the vehi cle in a region where the overtaking lane 
is to the right but then drives to a region where the overtakin g lane is to the 
left, the vehicle may accelerate when the right turn signal is  activated).
Example of acceleration  
When  there  are  no  longer  any  preceding  vehicles  driving  slower 
than the set speed
The  system  accelerates  until  the  set  speed  is  reached.  The  syst em  then 
returns to constant speed cruising.

●Adjusting the set speed by the lever 
To  change  the  set  speed,  operate  the  lever  until  the  desired  se t 
speed is displayed. 
Increases the speed
(Except  when  the  vehicle  has 
been  stopped  by  system  control 
in  vehicle-to-vehicle  distance 
control mode)
Decreases the speed 
Fine  adjustment:  Momentarily 
move  the  lever  in  the  desired 
direction. 
Large adjustment: Hold the lever up or down to change the speed , 
and release when the desired speed is reached. 
In  the  vehicle-to-vehicle  distance  control  mode,  the  set  speed  will 
be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine  adjustment:  By  1  km/h  (0.6  mph)*1  or  1  mph  (1.6  km/h)*2 each 
time the lever is operated 
Large  adjustment:  Increases  or  decreases  in  5  km/h  (3.1  mph)*1 or
5mph (8 km/h)*2 increments for as long as the lever is held
In the constant speed control mode ( P. 421), the set speed will be 
increased or decreased as follows:
Fine  adjustment:  By  1  km/h  (0.6  mph)*1  or  1  mph  (1.6  km/h)*2 each 
time the lever is operated 
Large  adjustment: The  speed  will  continue  to  change  while  the  l ever  is 
held.
*1:  When the set speed is shown in “km/h”
*2:  When the set speed is shown in “MPH”
● Increasing the set speed by the accelerator pedal 
Accelerate  with  accelerator  pedal  operation  to  the  desired  vehi - 
cle speed
