*: If equipped
●The following situations may
cause incorrect lane detection and
a faulty Lane Departure Warning
to occur.
• There are tire tracks on a wet road or snow-covered road.
• There are boundaries between
snow and asphalt, or marks from
road repair, etc.
• There are the shadows of guard-
rails.
• Lane markings are drawn in dou- ble.
• There are some lane markings left from roadwork or markings from
the previous road.
●When the Lane Departure Warn-
ing OFF indicator is illuminated,
Lane Departure Warning is inac-
tive. ( P.221)Lane Depar ture War n-
ing*
When vehicle speed is
approximately 30 mph (50
km/h) or more, this function
warns the driver if the sys-
tem detects that the vehicle
is likely to depart the traffic
lane.
When Lane Departure Warn-
ing activates, an alert
sounds 3 short beeps and a
pop-up display will be dis-
played.
“Lane Departure”A
WARNING
Lane Departure Wa rning will not
operate in all conditions. It also
will not automatically return the
vehicle to the ori ginal lane. If the
driver relies only on Lane Depar-
ture Warning to keep the vehicle
in the lane, lane departure may
occur, resulting in an accident.
Lane Departure Warning activates
when it detects lane markings.
However, it is not a function which
can detect the edge of a road
(shoulders or side ditches, etc.)
and warn the driver.
NOTICE
In the following situations, Lane
Departure Warning may not acti-
vate:
●Vehicle speed is approximately
30 mph (50 km/h) or less.
●The steering wheel is turned
significantly to either side.
●The vehicle is driving around a
curve whose radius is 0.18
miles (300 m ) or smaller.
●The brake pedal is depressed or
immediately after it is
depressed.
●The following distance behind a
vehicle in front is short.
●The turn signal is operating.
●For approximately 4 seconds
after the turn signal lever has
returned to its or iginal position.

●When moving backward, always
check the back with your eyes
without relying on the help lines.
Otherwise, it may cause an
accident or injury.
●The actual position may be dif-

●Differences may occur due to
the number of passengers or

2624-6. Using other driving systems
■ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem)
Helps to prevent wheel lock
when the brakes are applied
suddenly, or if the brakes are
applied while driving on a slip-
pery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake
pedal is depressed when the
system detects a panic stop sit-
uation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Con-
trol)
Helps the driver to control skid-
ding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road sur-
faces
■TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the drive wheels
from spinning when starting the
vehicle or accelerating on slip-
pery roads
The TRAC system is also
equipped with the brake LSD
function.
■Hill-start assist control
P.259
■EPS (Electric Power Steer-
ing)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort
needed to turn the steering
wheel
■When the TRAC/VSC systems
are operating
The slip indicator will flash while the
TRAC (Including brake LSD func-
tion)/VSC systems are operating.
■Disabling the TRAC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt
or snow, the TRAC system may
reduce power from the engine to the
wheels. Pressing switch to turn
the system off may make it easier
for you to rock the vehicle in order to
free it.
In this case, the brake LSD function
remains on.
To turn the TRAC system off, quickly
press and release switch.
Driving assist systems
To help enhance driving
safety and performance, the
following systems operate
automatically in response to
various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that
these systems are supple-
mentary and should not be
relied upon too heavily
when operating the vehicle.
Summary of the driving
assist systems
2644-6. Using other driving systems
*1: Vehicles with an automatic transmission
*2: Vehicles with a manual transmission
■Sounds and vibrations caused
by the ABS, brake assist, TRAC
and VSC systems
●A sound may be heard from the
engine compartment when the
brake pedal is depressed repeat-
edly, when the engine is started or
just after the vehicle begins to
move. This sound does not indi-
cate that a malfunction has
occurred in any of these systems.
●Any of the following conditions
may occur when t he above sys-
tems are operating. None of these
indicates that a malfunction has
occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.
• The brake pedal may pulsate
slightly after the ABS is activated.
• The brake pedal may move down slightly after the ABS is activated.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is oper-
ated, a motor sou nd (whirring
sound) may be heard. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
■Automatic reactivation of TRAC
and VSC systems
After turning the TRAC and VSC
systems off, the systems will be automatically reactivated in the fol-
lowing situations:
●When the engine switch is turned
off.
●If only the TRAC sy
stem is turned
off, the TRAC will turn on when
vehicle speed is more than
approximately 31 mph (50 km/h).
If both the TRAC and VSC sys-
tems are turned o ff, automatic
reactivation will not occur when
vehicle speed increases.
■Reduced effectiveness of the
EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS sys-
tem is reduced to prevent the sys-
tem from overheating when there is
frequent steering input over an
extended period o f time. The steer-
ing wheel may f eel heavy as a
result. Should this occur, refrain
from excessive steering input or
stop the vehicle and turn the engine
off. The EPS system should return
to normal after a little while.
■Automatic deactivation of
“TRACK” mode
When the engine switch is turned off
after driving in “ TRACK” mode, the
mode is automatically deactivated.

WARNING
■Caution while driving
If possible, cover hot drinks to
prevent burns.
Observe the following precautions
when putting items. Failure to do
so may cause items to be thrown
out in the event of sudden braking
or steering. In these cases, the
items may interfere with pedal
operation or cause driver distrac-
tion, resulting in an accident.
●Do not store items that can eas-
ily shift or roll out.
●Do not stack items higher than
the edge.
●Do not put items that may pro-
trude over the edge.
