the leaves of a tree, a pole, etc.
●The sign is only visible to the front
camera for a short amount of time.
●The driving scene (turning, lane
change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.
●If a sign not appropriate for the
currently traveled lane, but the
sign exists directly after a freeway
branches, or in an adjacent lane
just before merging.
●Stickers are attached to the rear of
the preceding vehicle.
●A sign resembling a system com-
patible sign is recognized.
●Side road speed signs may be
detected and displayed (if posi-
tioned in sight of the front camera)
while the vehicle is traveling on
the main road.
●Roundabout exit road speed signs
may be detected and displayed (if
positioned in sight of the front
camera) while traveling on a
roundabout.
●The front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered due to the carried load.
●The surrounding brightness is not
sufficient or changes suddenly.
●When a sign inte nded for trucks,
etc. is recognized.
●The navigation system map data
is outdated.
●The navigation system is not oper-
ating.
●The speed information displayed
on the meter and on the naviga-
tion system may be different due
to the navigation system using
map data.
■Speed limit sign display

the Stop & Start system when
the vehicle is on an incline,
when the brake pedal is
released, brake force is tempo-
rarily maintained to prevent the
vehicle from rolling backwards
before the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated,
the maintained brake force is
automatically canceled.

This function operates on flat
surfaces as well as steep
inclines.
 Sound may be generated
from the brake system, but
this does not indicate a mal-
function.
