2023 TOYOTA BZ4X cruise control

2785-4. Using the driving support systems
Owners Manual_USA_M42C01_enthe following cond
itions are met:
●The LTA system detects lane lines
or the path of preceding or sur-
rounding vehicles (except when
the preceding vehicle is small,
such as a motorcycle).
●The dynamic radar cruise control
is operating.
●The lane width is approximately
10 to 13 ft. (3 to 4 m).
●The turn signal le ver is not being
operated.
●The vehicle is not being driven
around a sharp curve.
●The vehicle is not accelerating or
decelerating more than a certain
amount.
●The steering wheel is not being
turned with a large force.
●The hands off steering wheel
warning ( P.278) is not operat-
ing.
●The vehicle is being driven in the
center of a lane.
■Temporary cancelation of func-
tions
●When the operating conditions are
no longer met, a function may be
temporarily canceled. However,
when the operation conditions are
met again, operation of the func-
tion will automatically be restored.
(  P.277)
●If the operating conditions of a
function are no longer met while
the function is operating, a buzzer
may sound to indicate that the
function has been temporarily
canceled.
●The steering assist operation of
the function can be overridden by
the steering wheel operation of
the driver.
■Lane departure warning func-
tion when the LTA is operating
●Even if the LDA warning method is
changed to vibration of the steer-
ing wheel, if the vehicle deviates from the lane while the LTA is
operating, the warning buzzer will
sound to aler
t the driver.
●If steering wheel operation equiv-
alent to that necessary for a lane
change is detected, the system
will determine the vehicle is not
deviating from the lane and the
warning will not operate.
■Hands off steering wheel warn-
ing operation
In the following si tuations, a mes-
sage urging the driver to grip the
steering wheel and the icon shown
in the illustration will be displayed on
the multi-information display to warn
the driver. If the system detects that
the steering wheel is held, the warn-
ing will be canceled. When using the
system, make sure to grip the steer-
ing wheel firmly, regardless of
whether the warning is operating or
not.
●When the system determines the
driver is not hold ing the steering
wheel while the function is operat-
ing
If no operations are detected for a
certain amount of time, a buzzer will
sound, the warning will operate, and
the function will be temporarily can-
celed. This warnin g may also oper-
ate if the driver only operates
steering wheel a small amount con-
tinuously.
Depending on the condition of the
vehicle, handle control condition
and road surface, t he warning func-
tion may not operate.

Dynamic radar cruise
control
This dynamic radar cruise
control detects the pres-
ence of vehicles ahead,
determines the current vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance, and
operates to maintain a suit-
able distance from the vehi-
cle ahead. The desired
vehicle-to-vehicle distance
can be set by operating the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance
switch.
Use the dynamic radar
cruise control only on high-
ways and expressways.

Driving
WARNING
●Set the speed appropriately
according to the speed limit,
traffic flow, road conditions,
weather conditions, etc. The
driver is responsible for confirm-
ing the set speed.
●Even if the system is operating
correctly, the condition of a pre-
ceding vehicle as recognized by
the driver and detected by the
system may differ. Therefore, it
is necessary for the driver to
pay attention, assess risks, and
ensure safety. Over-reliance on
this system to drive the vehicle
safely may lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious
injury.
■Precautions for the driving
assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to
the assistance provided by the
system. Over-reliance on this sys-
tem may lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Details of support provided for
the driver’s vision The dynamic
radar cruise control is only
intended to help the driver in
determining the distance
between the driver’s own vehi-
cle and a designated preceding
vehicle. It is not a system which
allows for careless or inattentive
driving, and is not a system
which assists in poor visibility
conditions. The driver must pay
attention to their surroundings,
even when the vehicle stops.
●Details of suppor t provided for
the driver’s judgement The
dynamic radar cruise control
determines whether the dis-
tance between the driver’s own
vehicle and a designated pre-
ceding vehicle is within a set
range. It is not capable of mak-
ing any other type of judgement.
Therefore, it is absolutely nec-
essary for the driver to remain
vigilant and to determine
whether or not t here is a possi-
bility of danger.
●Details of suppor t provided for
the driver’s operation The
dynamic radar cruise control
does not include functions
which will prevent or avoid colli-
sions with vehicles ahead of
your vehicle. Ther efore, if there
is ever any possibility of danger,
the driver must take immediate
and direct control of the vehicle
and act appropriately in order to
ensure safety.
■Situations in which the
dynamic radar cruise control
should not be used
Do not use the d ynamic radar
cruise control in the following situ-
ations. As the system will not be
able to provide appropriate con-
trol, using it may lead to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Roads where there are pedes-
trians, cyclists, etc.
●When driving on a highway or
expressway entrance or exit
●When the approach warning
sounds frequently
●Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly:

■Preceding vehicles that the sen-
sor may not detect correctly
In the following situations, depend-
ing on the conditions, if the system
cannot provide sufficient decelera-
tion or accelerati on is necessary,
operate the brake pedal or accelera-
tor pedal.
As the sensor may not be able to
correctly detect these types of vehi-
cles, the approach warning
(  P.294) may not operate.
●When a vehicle cuts in front of
your vehicle or changes lanes
away from your vehicle extremely
slowly or quickly
●When changing lanes
●When a preceding vehicle is driv-
ing at a low speed
●When a vehicle i s stopped in the
same lane as the vehicle
●When a motorcycle is traveling in
the same lane as the vehicle
■Conditions under which the
system may not operate cor-
rectly
In the following situations, operate
the brake pedal (or accelerator
pedal, depending on the situation)
as necessary.
As the sensor may not be able to
correctly detect a vehicle, the sys-
tem may not operate properly.
●When a preceding vehicle brakes
suddenly
●When changing lanes at low
speeds, such as in a traffic jam
In situations where the vehicle
approaches a preceding vehicle
and the system cannot provide
sufficient deceleration, such as
if a vehicle cuts in front of the
vehicle, a warning display will
flash and a buzzer will sound to
alert the driver. Depress the
brake pedal to ensure appropri-
ate vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
■Warnings may not occur
when
In the following situations, the
warning may not operate even
though the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance is short.
 When the preceding vehicle is
traveling at the same speed
or faster than your vehicle
 When the preceding vehicle is
traveling at an extremely low
speed
 Immediately after the vehicle
speed has been set

Driving
 When the accelerator pedal is
depressed
When a curve is detected, the
vehicle speed will begin being
reduced. When the curve ends,
the vehicle speed reduction will
end.
Depending on the situation, the
vehicle speed will then return to the
set vehicle speed.
In situations where vehicle-to-vehi-
cle distance control needs to oper-
ate, such as whe n a preceding
vehicle cuts in front of your vehicle,
the curve speed r eduction function
will be canceled.
■Situations in which the curve
speed reduction function may
not operate
In situations such as the following,
the curve speed r eduction function
may not operate:
●When the vehicle is being driven
around a gentle curve
●When the accelerator pedal is
being depressed
●When the vehicle is being driven
around an extremely short curve
If your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 50 mph (80 km/h)
or more and a lane change to
the passing lane is performed,
when the turn signal lever is
operated and the lane is
changed, the vehicle will accel-
erate up to the set speed to
assist in overtaking.
The system’s recognition of which
lane is the passing lane may be
based solely on the location of the
steering wheel in the vehicle (left-
hand drive/right-ha nd drive). If the
vehicle is driven in a location where
the passing lane i s on the opposite
side of that where the vehicle was
originally sold, the vehicle may
accelerate when the turn signal
lever is operated away from the
passing lane. (e.g. The vehicle was
manufactured for a right-hand traf-
fic location, but is being driven in a
left-hand traffic location. The vehi-
cle may accelera te when the turn
signal lever is operated to the right.)
If your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) or
more and the lane is changed to
that with a vehicle traveling slower
than your vehicle, when the turn
signal lever is operated the vehicle
will gradually decelerate to assist in
changing lanes.
