sor or the area around the sen-
sor

obstruct a sensor or light are
temporarily installed to the vehi-
cle

fog, condensation, or ice.
●If water droplets cannot be
properly removed from the area
of the windshield in front of the
front camera by the windshield
wipers, replace the wiper insert
or wiper blade.
●Do not attach window tint to the
windshield.
●Replace the windshield if it is
damaged or cracked. If the

■Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly
●When the height or inclination of
the vehicle has been changed due
to modifications
●When the windshield is dirty,
fogged up, cracked or damaged
●When the ambient temperature is
high or low
●When mud, water, snow, dead
insects, foreign matter, etc., is
attached to the fr ont of the sensor

as heavy rain, fog, snow, or a
sandstorm
●When water, snow, dust, etc. is
thrown up in front of the vehicle, or
when driving through mist or
smoke
●When the headlig hts are not illu-
minated while driving in the dark,
such as at night o r when in a tun-
nel
●When the lens of a headlight is
dirty and illumination is weak
●When the headlights are mis-
aligned
●When a headlight is malfunction-
ing
●When a the headlights of another vehicle, sunlight, or reflected light
shines directly into the front cam-
era
●When the brightness of the sur-
rounding area changes suddenly
●When driving near a TV tower,
broadcasting station, electric
power plant, radar equipped vehi-
cles, etc., or other location where
strong radio waves or electrical
noise may be present
●When a wiper blade is blocking
the front camera
●When in a location or near objects
which strongly reflect radio waves,
such as the following:
• Tunnels
• Truss bridges
• Gravel roads
• Rutted, snow-covered roads
• Walls
• Large trucks
• Manhole covers
• Guardrail
• Metal plates
●When near a step or protrusion

unloaded truck
●When a detectable vehicle has a
low front or rear end, such as a
low bed trailer
●When a detectable vehicle has
extremely high ground clearance
WARNING
●Do not modify or change the
headlights and other lights.
■Front camera installation area
on the windshield
If the system determines that the
windshield may be fogged up, it
will automatically operate the
heater to defog the part of the
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as
touching it may cause burns.

Driving
The LDA system warns the
driver if the vehicle may deviate
from the current lane or course
*,
and also can slightly operate the
steering wheel to help avoid
deviation from the lane or
course
*.
The front camera is used to
detect lane lines or a course
*.
*: Boundary between the asphalt and grass, soil, etc., or structures,
such as a curb, guardrail, etc.
■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 a display,
and either a warning buzzer will
sound or the steering wheel will
vibrate to alert the driver.
Check the area around your vehicle
and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to
the center of the lane or course
*.
Vehicles with BSM: If the system
determines that the vehicle may
collide with a vehicle in an adjacent
lane, the lane de parture alert will
operate even if the turn signals are
operating.
*: Boundary between the asphalt and grass, soil, etc., or structures, such as a curb,
guardrail, etc.
■Lane departure prevention
function
If the system determines that
the vehicle is likely to depart
from its lane or course
*, it pro-
vides assistance through steer-
ing wheel operations to help
avoid deviation from the lane or
course.
If the system determines that the
steering wheel has not been oper-
ated for a certain amount of time or
the steering wheel is not being
firmly gripped, a warning message
may be displayed and a warning
buzzer may sound to alert the
driver.
Vehicles with BSM: If the system
determines that the vehicle may
collide with a vehicl e in an adjacent
lane, the lane departure prevention
function will operate even if the turn
signals are operating.
