When later is selected, the
emergency steering assist
(excluding the active steering
function) will not operate in most
cases.
 Vehicles with a driver monitor
camera: When the system
determines that the driver is
not facing forward, the pre-
collision warning and emer-
gency steering assist will
operate at the earlier timing,
regardless of the user setting.
 When the dynamic radar
cruise control is operating, the
pre-collision warning will
operate at the earlier timing,
regardless of the user setting.
 Vehicles with Traffic Jam
Assist: When the Traffic Jam
Assist is operating, the pre-
collision warning will operate
at the earlier timing, regard-
less 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 this function only on highways
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 provi ded 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 and this function will be
temporarily canceled.

Signs will be displayed when the fol-
lowing conditions are met:
●The system has detected a sign
In the following situations, a dis-
played sign may stop being dis-
played:
●When a new sign has not been
detected for a certain distance
●When the system determines that
the road being driven on has
changed, such as after a left or
right turn
■Situations in which the display
function may not operate prop-
erly
In the following situations, the RSA
system may not operate properly
and may not detect signs or may
display the incorrect sign. However,
this does not indicate a malfunction.
●When a sign is dirty, faded, tilted
or bent
●When the contrast of an electronic
sign is low
●When all or part of a sign is hidden
by a tree, utility pole, etc.
●When a sign is detected by the
front camera for a short amount of
time
●When the driving state (turning,
changing lanes, etc.) is judged
incorrectly
RSA (Road Sign
Assist)*
The RSA system detects
specific road signs using
the front camera and/or nav-
igation system (when speed
limit information is avail-
able) and warns the driver
via displays and buzzers.
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver. Pay
careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving.
●Do not rely solely upon the
RSA. The RSA assists the
driver by providing road sign
information, but it is not a
replacement for the driver’s own
vision and awareness. Driving
safely is solely the responsibility
of the driver. Pay careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions in order to ensure safe
driving.
■Situations in which the RSA
should not be used

play may differ.
In the following situations, the
RSA system will output a warn-
ing to notify the driver.
 If the vehicle speed exceeds
the speed warning threshold
of the speed limit sign dis-
played on the display, the
sign display will be empha-
sized and a buzzer will sound.
 When the RSA system
detects a do not enter sign
and determines that the vehi-
cle has entered a no-entry
area, the do not enter sign
displayed on the display will
flash and a buzzer will sound.
■Operating conditions of the
notification functions
●Excess speed notification function
This function will operate when the
following condition is met:

of time, the system will enter
warning phase 2.
Vehicles with a driver monitor
camera: Depending on the type
of detection of the driver’s unre-
sponsiveness, the system may
skip warning phase 1 and start
the control of warning phase 2.
After entering warning phase 2,
a buzzer will sound in short
intervals and a message will be
displayed to warn the driver, and
the vehicle will slowly deceler-
ate. If driving operations, such
as holding the steering wheel,
are not performed within a cer-
tain amount of time, the system
will determine that the driver is
not responsive and enter the
deceleration stop phase.
The audio system will be muted
until the driver becomes respon-
sive.
When the vehicle is decelerat-
ing, the brake lights may illumi-
nate, depending on the road
conditions, etc.
After entering the deceleration
stop phase, a buzzer will sound
continuously and a message will
be displayed to warn the driver,
and the vehicle will slowly decel-erate and stop. After the vehicle
stops, the system will enter the
stop and hold phase.
After the vehicle is stopped, the
parking brake will be applied
automatically. After entering the
stop and hold phase, the buzzer
will continue sounding continu-
ously and the emergency flash-
ers (hazard lights) will flash to
warn other drivers of the emer-
gency.
■Restricted functions after the
operation is canceled
After shifting to the deceleration
stop phase, the following functions
will not be available until the hybrid

The Traffic Jam Assist function,
through confirmation of the con-
ditions by the driver, provides
lane keeping, accelerat-
ing/decelerating and stopping
support on some highways and
expressways.
This function is operable when
all of the operation conditions
are met. When this function is
operating, it is possible to take
your hands off of the steering
wheel.
Before using the Traffic Jam Assist
function, familiari ze yourself with
the content of the dynamic radar
cruise control and the LTA (Lane
Tracing Assist).
Make sure that the driver steers the
vehicle when entering a service
area/parking area or toll gate, or
when changing lanes.

WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the
responsibility of the driver. Do
not overly rely on this system,
and pay careful attention to the
surrounding conditions in order
to ensure safe driving.
●The Traffic Jam Assist function
is not an automated driving sys-
tem. This function provides the
driver with information and driv-
ing assistance a ccording to the
road shape and conditions, traf-
fic conditions, and the condition
of the driver themself. Always
pay careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions as use of
the system is the responsibility
of the driver.
●Depending on the condition of
the surrounding area, the road,
or the driver, the Traffic Jam
Assist function may not operate
or operation may be sus-
pended. Also, it may not always
be able to achieve the same
level of performance. Read the
operating conditions of the func-
tion carefully. Do not overly rely
on this function and always
drive carefully.
●As the recognition performance
and control performance of the
Traffic Jam Assist function are
limited, driver operation is nec-
essary to ensure safety while
the system is operating. Also,
the steering assist of this sys-
tem is designed to operate only
for slow steering operations
during a traffic jam. While this
function is operating, the lane
deviation control function of the
LDA will not operate. If, for
some reason, the vehicle is
about to deviate the lane, it is
the driver’s responsibility to
drive properly.
●Even if Traffic Jam Assist is
operating properly, the sur-
rounding conditions as recog-
nized by the driver and detected
by the system may differ. There-
fore, it is necessary for the
driver to pay attention, assess
risks, and ensure safety. Over-
reliance on this system to drive
the vehicle safely may lead to
an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
●While the Traffi c Jam Assist
function is operating, as driver
operation may become neces-
sary, the driver must ensure
they have clear visibility of their
surroundings.
●In certain situations, a message
urging the driver to hold the
steering wheel may be dis-
played by the Traffic Jam Assist
function. In this case, hold the
steering wheel and drive the
vehicle manually to ensure
safety.
