Driving assist system
WARNING
■ Toyota Safety Sense
The Toyota Safety Sense is designed to operate under the assumption that
the driver will drive safely, and is designed to help reduce the impact to the
occupants and the vehicle in the case of a collision or assist the driver in
normal driving conditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control perfor-
mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The
driver is always responsible for paying attention to the vehicle’s surround-
ings and driving safely.

LDA (Lane Depar ture Alert With Yaw Assist
Function)
When driving on a road with clear white (yellow) lane lines, this func-
tion alerts the driver when the vehicle might depart from its lane or
course* and provides assistance by applying a brake force to keep
the vehicle in its lane or course*.
The LDA system recognizes white
(yellow) lane lines or a course*
using the front camera. Addition-
ally, it detects preceding vehicles
using the front camera and radar.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass,
soil, or a curb

Summary of functions
WARNING
■ Before using LDA system
● Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. The LDA system does not auto-
matically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by paying careful attention to the surround-
ing conditions and operating the steering wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such
as from driving for a long period of time.
● Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
● When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system
off.

■Yaw assist function
When the system determines
that the vehicle might depart
from its lane or course*, the
system provides assistance as
necessary by applying a brake
force for a short period of time
to keep the vehicle in its lane.
*: Boundary between asphalt and
the side of the road, such as
grass, soil, or a curb
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the vehicle is swaying
within a lane, the warning
buzzer will sound and a mes-
sage will be displayed on the
multi-information display to alert
the driver.

■ Temporary cancelation of functions
When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be temporarily
canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again, operation
of the function is automatically restored. ( P. 291)
■ Yaw assist function
● Depending on the vehicle speed, lane departure situation, road conditions,
etc., the driver may not feel the func tion is operating or the function may not
operate at all.
● The yaw assist of the function is overridden by the driver’s steering wheel
operation.
● Do not attempt to test the operation of the yaw assist function.
● A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the brake pedal
is depressed, when the yaw assist function is operating. This sound does
not indicate that a malfunction is occurred in the LDA system.

used, or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
● Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
● Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting
operations that cause sudden engine braking.
● Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.
