2022 TOYOTA RAV4 PLUG-IN HYBRID lane assist

3425-5. Using the driving support systems
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode is automatically canceled for any
reasons other than the above, there
may be a malfunction in the system.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
QAutomatic cancelation of constant
speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is auto-
matically canceled in the following situa-
tions:
OActual vehicle speed is more than
approximately 16 km/h (10 mph)
below the set vehicle speed.
OActual vehicle speed falls below
approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
OVSC is activated.
OTRC is activated for a period of time.
OWhen the VSC or TRC system is
turned off.
OWhen the brake control or output
restriction control of a driving support
system operates.
(For example: Pre-Collision System,
Drive-Start Control)
OThe parking brake is operated.
If constant speed control mode is auto-
matically canceled for any reasons other
than the above, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the system. Contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
QThe Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
with Road Sign Assist may not
operate properly when (vehicles
with RSA)
As the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
with Road Sign Assist may not operate
properly in conditions in which RSA may
not operate or detect correctly
(P.331), when using this function,
make sure to check the speed limit sign
displayed.In the following situations, the set speed
may not be changed to the recognized
speed limit by pressing and holding the
“+RES”/“-SET” switch.
OIf speed limit information is not avail-
able
OWhen the recognized speed limit is
the same as the set speed
OWhen the recognized speed limit is
outside of the speed range that the
dynamic radar cruise control system
can operate
QBrake operation
A brake operation sound may be heard
and the brake pedal response may
change, but these are not malfunctions.
QWarning messages and buzzers for
dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are
used to indicate a system malfunction or
to inform the driver of the need for cau-
tion while driving. If a warning message
is shown on the multi-information dis-
play, read the message and follow the
instructions. (P.309, 518)
QWhen the sensor may not be cor-
rectly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depend-
ing on the conditions, operate the brake
pedal when deceleration of the system
is insufficient or operate the accelerator
pedal when acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to cor-
rectly detect these types of vehicles, the
approach warning (P.339) may not be
activated.
OVehicles that cut in suddenly
OVehicles traveling at low speeds
OVehicles that are not moving in the
same lane
OVehicles with small rear ends (trailers
with no load on board, etc.)

BSM function:
When a vehicle is detected in a blind
spot of the outside rear view mirrors or
approaching rapidly from behind into a
blind spot, the outside rear view mirror
indicator on the detected side will illumi-
nate. If the turn signal lever is operated
BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that has 2 functions:
 The BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)
function
Assists the driver in making a
decision when changing lanes
 The RCTA (Rear Crossing
Traffic Alert) function
Assists the driver when backing
up
These functions use the same
sensors.
WARNING
QCautions regarding the use of the BSM function
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, tak-ing care to observe your surround-
ings. The BSM function is a supplementary function which alerts the driver that a
vehicle is in a blind spot of the outside rear view mirrors or is approaching rapidly from behind into a blind spot.
Do not overly rely on the BSM func- tion. As the function cannot judge if it is safe to change lanes, over reliance
could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
As the system may not function cor-
rectly under certain conditions, the driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
QCautions regarding the use of the RCTA function
There is a limit to the degree of recog-
nition accuracy and control perfor- mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The
driver is always responsible for pay- ing attention to the vehicle’s sur-roundings and driving safely.

Driving
OInstances of the BSM function unnec-
essarily detecting a vehicle and/or
object may increase in the following
situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to
a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a guardrail, wall, etc. that
enters the detection area is short
• When driving up and down consecu-
tive steep inclines, such as hills, dips
in the road, etc.
• When vehicle lanes are narrow, or
when driving on the edge of a lane,
and a vehicle traveling in a lane other
than the adjacent lanes enters the
detection area
• When driving on roads with sharp
bends, consecutive curves, or uneven
surfaces
• When the tires are slipping or spinning
• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a following vehicle is short
• When an accessory (such as a bicycle
carrier) is installed to the rear of the
vehicle
• When the vehicle throws up water or
snow behind.
QOperation of the RCTA func-
tion
The RCTA function uses radar sen-
sors to detect vehicles approaching
from the right or left at the rear of
the vehicle and alerts the driver of
the presence of such vehicles by
flashing the outside rear view mirror
indicators and sounding a buzzer.Approaching vehicles

Use fluids that are appropriate to
the prevailing outside tempera-
tures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Power control unit coolant
• Washer fluid
 Have a service technician
inspect the condition of the 12-
volt battery.
 Have the vehicle fitted with four
snow tires or purchase a set of
tire chains for the front tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size
and brand, and that chains match the
size of the tires.*
*: Tire chains cannot be mounted on
vehicles with 235/55R19 tires.
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary prepa-
rations and inspections before
driving the vehicle in winter.
Always drive the vehicle in a
manner appropriate to the pre-
vailing weather conditions.
Pre-winter preparations
WARNING
QDriving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or serious injury.
OUse tires of the specified size.
OMaintain the recommended level of air pressure.
ODo not drive at speeds in excess of the speed limit or the speed limit specified for the snow tires being
used.
OUse snow tires on all, not just some
wheels.
QDriving with tire chains (except
235/55R19 tires)
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehi- cle being unable to be driven safely, and may cause death or serious
injury.
ODo not drive in excess of the speed
limit specified for the tire chains being used, or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
OAvoid driving on bumpy road sur-faces or over potholes.
OAvoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shift-
ing operations that cause sudden engine braking.
OSlow down sufficiently before enter-ing a curve to ensure that vehicle control is maintained.
ODo not use LTA (Lane Tracing Assist) system (if equipped).
NOTICE
QRepairing or replacing snow tires
Request repairs or replacement of snow tires from any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer or legitimate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the operation of the tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters.
