●If the operation conditions
( P.249) are no longer met while
the lane centering function is
operating, the steering wheel may
vibrate and the buzzer may sound

Driving
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 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 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 pe rformed, 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 identification of what is an overtaking lane may be determined
solely based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left side
driver position versus right side driver position.) If the vehi cle is driven to a
region where the overtaking lane is on a different side from wh ere the vehi-
cle is normally driven, the vehicle may accelerate when the tur n signal lever
is operated in the opposite direction to the overtaking lane (e .g., if the driver
normally operates the vehicle in a region where the overtaking lane is to the
right but then drives to a region where the overtaking lane is to the left, the

Owners Manual_USA_M0C031_envehicle 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.

switch to activate the cruise
control.
Dynamic radar cruise control indi-
cator will come on and a message
will be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display. Press the switch
again to deactivate the cruise con-
trol.
If the cruise cont rol main switch is
pressed and held for 1.5 seconds
or more, the syste m turns on in
constant speed control mode.

Outside rear view mirror indi-
cators
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 illuminate. If the
turn signal lever is operated toward
the detected side, the outside rear
view mirror indicator flashes.
■Outside rear vie w mirror indica-
tor visibility
In strong sunlight, the outside rear

to see.
■When “Blind Spot Monitor
Unavailable” is shown on the
multi-information display
Ice, snow, mud, etc., may be
attached to the rear bumper around
the sensors. ( P.269) The system
should return to normal operation
after removing the ice, snow, mud,
etc., from the rear bumper. Addition-
ally, the sensors may not operate
normally when drivin g in extremely
hot or cold environments.
BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver for
lane changing decision.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to o bserve your sur-
roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary function which alerts
the driver that a v ehicle 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 Blind Spot
Monitor. As the function cannot
judge if it is safe to change lanes,
over reliance could lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.

The tire pressure warning system
does not replace routine tire inflation
pressure checks. Make sure to
check tire inflation pressure as part
of your routine of 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 inflation pressure
has been adjusted.
●Tire inflation pressure changes
with temperature. The displayed
values may also be different from
the values measured using a tire
pressure gauge.
■Situations in which the tire
pressure warning system may
not operate properly
●In the following cases, the tire
pressure warning system may not
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are
used.

tire that is not an OE (Original
Equipment) tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a
tire that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. , are equipped.
• An auxiliary-support ed run-flat tire
is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on

wheels or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is
extremely higher than the speci-
fied level.
• If wheels without tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters
are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters is
not registered in the tire pressure
warning computer.
