Emergency Driving
Stop System
The emergency driving stop
system is a system which
automatically decelerates
and stops the vehicle within
its lane if the driver
becomes unable to continue
driving the vehicle, such as
if they have suffered a medi-
cal emergency, etc.
During LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist) control, if the sys-
tem does not detect driving
operations, such as if the
driver is not holding the
steering wheel, and deter-
mines the driver is not
responsive, the vehicle will
be decelerated and stopped
within its current lane to
help avoid a collision or
reduce the impact of a colli-
sion.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver. Pay
careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving. The emer-
gency driving stop system is
designed to provide support in
an emergency where it is diffi-
cult for the driver to continue
driving, such as if they have had
a medical emergency. It is not
designed to support driving
while drowsy or in poor physical
health, or inattentive driving.
●Although the emergency driv-
ing stop system is designed to
decelerate the vehicle within its
lane to help avoid or help
reduce the impact of a collision
if the system determines that it
is difficult for the driver to con-
tinue driving, its effectiveness
may change according to vari-
ous conditions. Therefore, it
may not always be able to
achieve the same level of per-
formance. Also, if the operating
conditions are not met, this
function will not operate.
●After the emergency driving
stop system operates, if driving
becomes possible again, imme-
diately begin driving again or, if
necessary, park the vehicle on
the shoulder of the road and set
a warning reflecto r and flare to
warn other drivers of your
stopped vehicle.
●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 behind 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.
Summary of the system
2054-5. Using the driving support systems
4
Driving
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 opera tes when all of
the following cond itions 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 sig nal lever is oper-
ated)
●When the driving assist switch is
pressed while in the stop and hold
phase
●When the engine switch has been
turned from ON to off
●Situations in whic h some or all of
the functions of the system cannot operate:
P. 1 6 6
■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-
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.

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.

via displays and buzzers.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver. Pay
careful attent ion to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving.
●Do not rely so lely upon the
RSA. The RSA assists the
driver by providing road sign
information, but it is not a
replacement for the driver’s own
vision and awareness. Driving
safely is solely the responsibility
of the driver. Pay careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions in order to ensure safe
driving.
■Situations in which the RSA
should not be used

The Safe exit assist will detect a
vehicle present in the detection area
in the followin g situations:
●When the vehicle is stopped and a
vehicle or bicycle, which is travel-
ing parallel to the vehicle, is
approaching within the area that a
door opens (other than the back
door)
■Conditions under which the
system will not detect a vehicle
●Safe exit assist does not detect
the following objects, vehicles,
and bicycles:
• Vehicles or bicycles which are
approaching slowly
*
• Vehicles or bicycles which are determined to have a low possibil-
ity of colliding with a door (other
than the back door) when opened

• Vehicles or bicycles which are
approaching from directly behind*
• Vehicles or bicycles which are approaching from the front*
• Guardrails, walls , signs, parked
vehicles, and other stationary
objects
*
• Pedestrians, animals, etc.*
*
: Depending on the conditions, detection of a vehicle and/or
object may occur.
●In situations such as the following,
safe exit assist will not operate:
• When 3 minutes or more have elapsed since the engine off (the
time which operation is possible
may be extended if a door is
opened and closed)
• When your vehicle is not com- pletely stopped
■Conditions under which the
system may not function cor-
rectly
●The Safe exit assist may not
detect vehicles corr ectly in the fol-
lowing situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sen-
sor or its surrounding area
• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is covering the sensor or sur-
rounding area on the rear bumper
• When the vehicle is stopped on a
wet road surface, such as in a
puddle, while in inclement
weather, such as heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.
• When a vehicle or bicycle approaches from behind a nearby
parked vehicle
• When an approaching vehicle or bicycle suddenly changes direc-
tion
• Immediately after a vehicle or bicycle starts moving
• When the back door is open
• When a bicycle carrier, ramp, or
other accessory is installed to the
back of the vehicle
• When a parked vehicle, wall, sign, person or other stationary object
is behind the vehicle
• When the vehicle is stopped at an angle to the road
• When a vehicle is traveling near
an approaching vehicle or bicycle
• When an approaching vehicle or bicycle is traveling along a station-
ary object, such a wall or sign
• When a vehicle or bicycle is approaching at high speed
• When towing with the vehicle
• When stopped on a steep slope
• When stopped on a curve or at the exit of a curve
●Instances of the Safe exit assist
unnecessarily detecting a vehicle
and/or object may increase in the
following situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned
due to a strong impact to the sen-
