Operating the switch turns
on the lights as follows:U.S.A.
Canada
1 The side marker, parking,
tail, license plate, instrument
panel lights, daytime running
lights ( P.248) turn on.
2 The headlights and all
lights listed above (except
daytime running lights) turn
on.
3 The headlights, daytime
running lights ( P.248) and all the lights listed above turn
on and off automatically.
4 Off (for the U.S.A. only)
■AUTO mode can be used when
The power switch is in ON.
■Daytime running light system
●The daytime runn ing lights illumi-
nate using the same lights as the
parking lights and illuminate but at
a higher intensity. (On some mod-
els: Using the same lights as the
headlights but at a lower intensity.)
●To make your vehicle more visible
to other drivers during daytime
driving, the daytime running lights
turn on automatically when all of
the following conditions are met.
(The daytime running lights are
not designed for use at night.)
• The EV system is operating
• The parking brake is released
• The headlight switch is in the
or position
• The surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain
on after they illumi nate, even if the
parking brake is set again.
●For the U.S.A.: Daytime running
lights can be turned off by operat-
ing the switch.
●Compared to turning on the head-
lights, the daytime running light
system offers greater durability
and consumes less electricity, so
it can help improve electricity con-
sumption.
■Headlight control sensor
The sensor may not function prop-
erly if an object is placed on the sen-
sor, or anything that blocks the
sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light
and may cause t he automatic head-
light system to malfunction.

The headlights can be oper-
ated manually or automati-
cally.

Constant speed cruising:
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle drives at the speed set by the driver.
If the set vehicle speed is exceeded while driving down a hill, the set vehicle
speed display will blin k and a buzzer will sound.
Deceleration and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set vehicle
speed is detected
When a vehicle is detected driving ahead of your vehicle, the v ehicle auto-
matically decelerates and if a greater reduction in vehicle spe ed is neces-
sary, the brakes are applied (the stop lights will come on at t his time). The
vehicle is controlled to maintai n the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the
driver, in accordance with changes in the speed of the precedin g vehicle. If
vehicle deceleration is not sufficient and the vehicle approaches the vehicle
ahead, the approach wa rning will sound.
Acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower
than the set vehicle speed
The vehicle accelerates until th e set vehicle speed is reached and then
resumes constant speed cruising.
Starting off: If a preceding vehi cle stops, the vehicle will also stop
(controlled stop). After the preceding vehicle starts off, pressing
the “RES” switch or depressing the accelerator pedal will resum e
follow-up cruising (start off operation). If a start off operat ion is not
performed, the controlled stop will continue.
Basic functions

3005-4. Using the driving support systems
Owners Manual_USA_M42C01_en
Operation of this system is sep-
arated into 4 control states.
Through control state “warning
phase 1” and “warning phase 2”,
the system determines if the
driver is aware and responsive
while outputting a warning and
controlling the vehicle speed. If
the system determines the
driver is not responsive, it will
operate in control state “deceler-
ation stop phase” and “stop hold
phase” and decelerate and stop
the vehicle. It will then operate
continuously in “stop hold
phase”.
■Operating conditions
This system operates when all of
the following conditions are met:
●When the LTA is on
●When the vehicle speed is
approximately 30 mph (50 km/h)
or more
■Operation cancelation condi-
tions
In the following si tuations, system
operation will be canceled:
●When LTA control has been can-
celed (the LTA switch has been
pressed, etc.)
●When the dynamic radar cruise
control has been canceled
●When driver operations are
detected (the steering wheel is
held, the brake pedal, accelerator
pedal, parking brake, hazard light
switch, or turn signal lever is oper-
ated)
●When the driving assist switch is
pressed while in the stop and hold
phase
●When the power switch has been
turned from ON to OFF
●Situations in which some or all of
the functions of the system cannot
operate: P. 2 6 4
■LTA control when operation is
canceled
When emergency driving stop sys-
tem operation is canceled, LTA con-
trol may also be canceled.
If driving operations are not
detected after the hands off
steering wheel warning oper-
ates, a buzzer will sound inter-
mittently and a message will be
displayed to warn the driver, and
the system will judge if the driver
is responsive or not. If driving
operations, such as holding the
steering wheel, are not per-
WARNING
●After this system operates, pas-
sengers should attend to the
driver as necessary and take
appropriate hazard prevention
measures, such as moving to a
place where safety can be
ensured, such as the shoulder
of the road or b ehind a guard-
rail.
●This system detects the condi-
tion of the driver through the
operation of the steering wheel.
This system may operate if the
driver is aware but intentionally
and continuously does not oper-
ate the vehicle. Also, the system
may not operate if it cannot
determine that the driver is not
responsive, such as if they are
leaning on the steering wheel.

Driving
formed within a certain amount
of time, the system will enter
warning phase 2.
After entering warning phase 2,
a buzzer will sound in short
intervals and a message will be
displayed to warn the driver, and
the vehicle will slowly deceler-
ate. If driving operations, such
as holding the steering wheel,
are not performed within a cer-
tain amount of time, the system
will determine that the driver is
not responsive and enter the
deceleration stop phase.
The audio system will be muted
until the driver becomes respon-
sive.
When the vehicle is decelerating,
the brake lights may illuminate,
depending on the road conditions,
etc.
After entering the deceleration
stop phase, a buzzer will sound
continuously and a message will
be displayed to warn the driver,
and the vehicle will slowly decel-
erate and stop. After the vehicle
stops, the system will enter the
stop and hold phase.
After the vehicle is stopped, the
parking brake will be applied automatically. After entering the
stop and hold phase, the buzzer
will continue sounding continu-
ously and the emergency flash-
ers (hazard lights) will flash to
warn other drivers of the emer-
gency.

PKSB (Parking Sup-
port Brake)*
The Parking Support Brake
system consists of the fol-
lowing functions that oper-
ate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such
as when parking. When the
system determines that the
probability of a collision
with a detected object or
pedestrian is high, a warn-
ing operates to urge the
driver to take evasive
action. If the system deter-
mines that the possibility of
a collision with a detected
object or pedestrian is
extremely high, the brakes
are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or
help reduce the impact of
the collision.
