WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may cause death
or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in
the vehicle must wear their seat
belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supple-
mental devices to be used with
the seat belts.
●The SRS driver airbag deploys
with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious
injury especially if the driver is
very close to the airbag. The
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA)
advises:
Since the risk zone for the driver’s
airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75
mm) of inflation, placing yourself
10 in. (250 mm) from your driver
airbag provides you with a margin
of safety. This distance is mea-
sured from the center of the steer-
ing wheel to your breastbone. If
you sit less than 10 in. (250 mm)
away now, you can change your
driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reach-
ing the pedals comfortably.

The pre-collision setting can
be changed on the customize
settings. ( P.442)
When the pre-collision warn-
ing timing is changed, the
emergency steering assist
(excluding the active steering
function) timing will also be
changed.
When "Later" is selected, the
emergency steering assist
(excluding the active steering
function) will not operate in
most cases.
When the dynamic radar
cruise control is operating, the
pre-collision warning will
operate at the “Earlier” timing,
regardless of the user setting.
When driving on a road with
clear lane lines with the
dynamic radar cruise control
operating, lane lines and pre-
ceding and surrounding vehi-
cles are detected using the
front camera and radar sen-
sor, and the steering wheel is
operated to maintain the vehi-
cle’s lane position.
Use the this function only on high-
ways and expressways.
If the dynamic radar cruise control
is not operating, the function will not
operate.
In situations where the lane lines
are difficult to see or are not visible,
such as when in a traffic jam, sup-
port will be provided using the path
of preceding and surrounding vehi-
cles.
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, the driver will be
alerted via a display and this func-
tion will be temporarily canceled.
If the steering wheel is firmly
gripped, the func tion will begin
operating again.
LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist)
LTA functions
2204-5. Using the driving support systems
the following conditions 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.220) 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.219)
●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.
