Driving
●When the system determines that
the driver is not securely holding
the steering wheel, or the steering
wheel is not being operated when
the steering assist operation of the
lane departure prevention function
is operating
The length of time that the warning
buzzer operates will become longer
as the frequency o f the steering
assist operating i ncreases. Even if
the system judges that the steering
wheel has been operated, the warn-
ing buzzer will sound for a certain
amount of time.
■Break suggestion function
If the vehicle is swaying, a message
will be displayed and a warning
buzzer will sound to u rge the driver
to take a break.
Depending on the condition of the
vehicle and road surface, the break
suggestion functi on may not oper-
ate.
The LDA system can be enabled/disabled through a
customize setting. (
P.386)
The settings of the LDA can
be changed on the customize
settings. ( P.386)

WARNING
■Situations in which the sys-
tem may not operate properly
In the following situations, the
system may not operate properly
and the vehicle may depart from
its lane. Do not overly rely on
these functions. The driver is
solely responsible for paying
attention to their surroundings
and operating the steering wheel
as necessary to ensure safety.
●When the boundary between
the asphalt and grass, soil, etc.,
or structures, such as a curb,
guardrail, etc. is not clear or
straight
●When the vehicle is struck by a
crosswind or the turbulence of
other nearby vehicles
●Situations in which the lane may
not be detected: P.166
●Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly:
P.165
●Situations in which some or all
of the functions of the system
cannot operate: P.166
●When it is necessary to disable
the system: P.161

Driving
PDA (Proactive driv-
ing assist)
When a detectable object
(P.188) is detected, the
proactive driving assist
operates the brakes and
steering wheel to help pre-
vent the vehicle from
approaching too close to
the object.
WARNING
■For safe use
Driving safely is solely the respon-
sibility of the driver.
●The proactive driving assist is
designed to provide some
assistance for regular braking
and steering operations, as well
as helping to prevent the vehicle
from approaching too close to a
detectable object. However, the
scope of this assistance is lim-
ited.
The driver should perform brake
and steering operations as neces-
sary. Read the following items
carefully. Do not overly rely on the
proactive driving assist and
always drive carefully.( P.189)
●The proactive driving assist is
not a system which reduces the
amount of attention necessary
for safe driving. Even if the sys-
tem is operating correctly, the
surrounding conditions as rec-
ognized by the driver and
detected by the system may dif-
fer. It is necessary for the driver
to pay attention, assess risks,
and ensure safety. Over-reli-
ance on this system to drive the
vehicle safely may lead to an
accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
●Proactive driving assist is not a
system which allows for inatten-
tive driving and is not a system
which assists in poor visibility
conditions. The driver is solely
responsible for paying attention
to their surroundings and driving
safely.
■When turning proactive driv-
ing assist off

may not operate properly

■Hands off steering wheel warn-
ing operation
In the following situations, a mes-
sage urging the dr iver to grip the
steering wheel and the icon shown
in the illustration will be displayed on
the display to warn the driver. If the
system detects that the steering
wheel is held, the warning will be
canceled. When using the system,
make sure to grip the steering wheel
firmly, regardless of whether the
warning is operating or not.
●When the system determines the
driver is not holding the steering
wheel while the lane centering
function is operating
If no operations are detected for a
certain amount of time, a buzzer will
sound, the warnin g will operate.
This warning may also operate if the
driver only operates steering wheel
a small amount continuously.
■Warning operation after preced-
ing vehicle deceleration assis-
tance has ended
After preceding vehicle decelera-
tion assistance has ended, if the
driver does not operate the brake
pedal or accelerator pedal and the vehicle approaches the preceding
vehicle, the displa
y will flash and a
buzzer will sound to urge the driver
to decelerate. If the system deter-
mines that the driver is operating the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal,
the warning will be canceled.
