■Operation of the lane departure
alert function/lane departure
prevention function
●Depending on the vehicle speed,
road conditions, lane departure
angle, etc., operation of the lane
departure prevention function may
not be felt or the function may not
operate.

warning buzzer may operate even
if vibration is selected through a
customize setting.
●If a course* is not clear or straight,
the lane departure alert function or
lane departure prevention function
may not operate.
●The lane departure alert function
or lane departure prevention func-
tion may not operate if the system
judges that the vehicle is inten-
tionally being ste ered to avoid a
pedestrian or parked vehicle.
●Vehicles with BSM: It may not be
possible for the sys tem to judge if
there is danger of a collision with a
vehicle in an adjacent lane.
●The steering assist operation of
the lane departure prevention
function can be overridden by the
steering wheel operation of the
driver.

■Hands off steering wheel warn-
ing operation
In the following si tuations, a mes-
sage urging the driver to operate the
steering wheel and an icon will be
displayed and a buzzer will sound to
warn the driver. When using the sys-
tem, make sure to grip the steering
wheel firmly, rega rdless of whether
the warning is operating or not.

●In the following si tuations, system
operation will be canceled :
• When the dynamic radar cruise control is operating
• When the PCS is off
• Situations in whi ch some or all of
the functions of the system cannot
operate : P. 1 6 5
• When the P, R or N shift position is selected
When the vehicle speed falls below

●In the following si tuations, system
operation may be canceled :
• When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving sup-
port system operates
(For example: PCS, drive-start
control)
• When the system determines that a detected object has moved
away from the vehicle
●In the following situations, system
assistance may be canceled :

detected
• When the brake pedal has been
depressed
• When the accelerator pedal has been depressed
• When the steering wheel has
been operated wi th more than a
certain amount of force
• When the turn signal lever is oper-

WARNING
■Situations in which the sys-
tem may not ope rate properly
●Situations in which the lane may
not be detected :
P.166
●When a detectable object stops
immediately before entering the
path of the vehicle
●When passing extremely close
to a detectable object behind a
guardrail, fence, etc.
●When changing lanes while
overtaking a detectable objec
●When passing a detectable
object that is changing lanes or
turning left/right
●When there are objects (guard-
rails, power poles, trees, walls,
fences, poles, traffic cones,
mailboxes, etc.) in the surround-
ing area
●When there are patterns or a
painting ahead of the vehicle
that may be mistaken for a
detectable object
●When passing through a place
with a low structure above the
road (tunnel with a low ceiling,
traffic sign, signboard, etc.)
●When driving on snowy, icy, or
rutted roads
2004-5. Using the driving support systems
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
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 when a preceding
vehicle cuts in front of your vehicle,
the curve speed reduction function
will be canceled.
■Situations in which the curve
speed reduction function may
not operate
In situations such as the following,
the curve speed reduction function
may not operate:
●When the vehicle is being driven
around a gentle curve
●When the accele rator 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-hand drive). If

the vehicle is driven in a location
where the passing lane is 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 traffic location, but is
being driven in a left-hand traffic
location. The vehicle may acceler-
ate 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.
The settings of Dynamic radar
cruise control can be changed
through customize settings.

WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver.
Therefore, do not overly rely on
this system. The driver is solely
responsible for paying attention
to the vehicle’s surroundings
and driving safely.
●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.
■Situations in which cruise
control should not be used
Do not use the cruise control in
the following situ ations. As the
system will not be able to provide
appropriate control, using it may
lead to an acciden t resulting in
death or serious injury.
●On roads with sharp bends
●On winding roads
●On slippery roads, such as
those covered with rain, ice or
snow
●On steep downhills, or where
there are sudden changes
between sharp up and down
gradients

BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver in
confirming safety when
changing lanes.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
●The driver is solely responsible
for safe driving. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe
your surroundings.
●The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary function which alerts
the driver that a vehicle is in a
blind spot of the outside rear
view mirrors or is approaching
rapidly from behind into a blind
spot. Do not overly rely on the
Blind Spot Monitor. As the func-
tion cannot judge if it is safe to
change lanes, over reliance
could lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury. As
the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual
confirmation of safety is neces-
sary.

The tire pressure warning system
does not replace routine tire inflation
pressure checks . Make sure to
check tire inflation pressure as part
of your routine o f daily vehicle
checks.
■Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to dis-
play the tire inflation pressure
after the engine switch is turned to
ON. It may also take a few min-
utes to display the tire inflation
pressure after infl ation pressure
has been adjusted.
●Tire inflation pressure changes
with temperature.
The displayed values may also be
different from the values mea-
sured using a tire pressure gauge.
■Situations in which the tire
pressure warning system may
not operate properly
●In the following cases, the tire
pressure warning system may not
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used.
• A tire has been replaced with a
tire that is not an OE (Original
Equipment) tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a
tire that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. are equipped.
• An auxiliary-support ed run-flat tire
is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, particularly around the
wheels or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is extremely higher than the speci-
fied level.
