■Lane departure alert func-
tion
When the system determines that the vehicle might depart
from its lane or course
*, a warn-
ing is displayed on the multi-
information display, and either a
warning buzzer will sound or the
steering wheel will vibrate to
alert the driver.
When the warning buzzer sounds
or the steering wheel vibrates,
check the area around your vehicle
and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to
the center of the lane.
Vehicle with BSM: When the sys-
tem determines that the vehicle
might depart from its lane and that
the possibility of a collision with an
overtaking vehicle in the adjacent
lane is high, the lane departure
alert will operate even if the turn
signals are operating.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as
grass, soil, or a curb
WARNING

Functions included in
LTA system
2944-5. Using the driving support systems
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration crui sing and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed
appears
When a vehicle is detected runni ng ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle s peed is nec-
essary, the system applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this
time). The system will respond to changes i n the speed of the vehicle
ahead in order to maintain the ve hicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver.
Approach warning warns you when the system cannot decelerate suffi-
ciently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you st ops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is
stopped by system control). Afte r the vehicle ahead starts off, pressing the
“+RES” switch or depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will
resume follow-up cruising. If the start-off operation is not performed, system
control continues to keep your vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is ope rated and your vehicle moves to an over-
taking lane while driving at 50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehi cle will accel-
erate to help to overt ake a passing vehicle.
The system’s identifi cation of what is an overtaking lane may be deter-
mined solely based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left
side driver position versus righ t 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 v ehicle 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 vehicle in a region where the over taking lane is
to the right but then drives to a region where the overtaking l ane 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 system then
returns to constan t speed cruising.

*: If equipped
BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that has 2 functions:
The BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor) function
Assists the driver in making a
decision when changing lanes
The RCTA (Rear Cross
Traffic Alert) function
Assists the driver when back-
ing up
These functions use the
same sensors.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the BSM function
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The BSM function is a supple-
mentary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is in a blind
spot of the outside rear view mir-
rors or is approaching rapidly from
behind into a blin d spot. Do not
overly rely on the BSM function.
As the function cannot judge if it is
safe to change lanes, over reli-
ance could lead to an accident
resulting in dea th or serious
injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.

position information will not be
updated. If this accidentally occurs,
either turn the power switch to OFF
and then to ON, or initialize the sys-
tem after checking that the tire pres-
sure is properly adjusted.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
tire pressure warning system
that uses tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters to detect
low tire inflation pressure before
serious problems arise.
The tire pressure warning sys-
tem of this vehicle adopts a 2-
type warning system
When “Adjust Pressure” is
displayed (Normal Warning)
The tire pressure warning light
comes on and a buzzer sounds
when the tire inflation pressure
becomes low due to natural air
leakage or outside temperature.
(Ways of coping: P.470, 523)
When “Immediately Check
tire when Safe” is displayed
(Emergency Warning)
The tire pressure warning light
comes on and a buzzer sounds
when the tire inflation pressure
becomes low suddenly due to a
blowout. (Ways of coping: P.470,
480, 490) However, the system
may not be able to detect sudden
tire ruptures (bursting, etc.).
The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can
be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display. The unit can be changed.

does not replace routine tire inflation
pressure checks. Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as part
of your routine o
f daily vehicle
checks.
■Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to dis-
play the tire inflation pressure
after the power switch is turned to
ON. It may also take a few min-
utes to display the tire inflation
pressure after infl ation pressure
has been adjusted.
