■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 accelerator pedal is
being depressed
●When the vehicle is being driven
around an extremely short curve
While a warning of the driver
monitor is being displayed, the
vehicle acceleration will be
restrained.
When the warning of the driver
monitor disappears, the restrained
acceleration control will end.
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 accel-
erate 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 decel-
erate to assist in changing
lanes.
The settings of Dynamic radar
cruise control can be changed
through customize settings.

Driving
Emergency Driving
Stop System
The emergency driving stop
system is a system which
automatically decelerates
and stops the vehicle within
its lane if the driver
becomes unable to continue
driving the vehicle, such as
if they have suffered a medi-
cal emergency, etc.
During LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist) control, if the sys-
tem does not detect driving
operations, such as if the
driver is not holding the
steering wheel, and deter-
mines the driver is not
responsive, the vehicle will
be decelerated and stopped
within its current lane to
help avoid a collision or
reduce the impact of a colli-
sion.
The vehicle will also decel-
erate/stop during the Traffic
Jam Assist (if equipped)
controls, when no driver’s
response to the vehicle’s
warning to hold the steering
wheel is detected.
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. The emer-
gency driving stop system is
designed to provide support in
an emergency where it is diffi-
cult for the driver to continue
driving, such as if they have had
a medical emergency. It is not
designed to support driving
while drowsy or in poor physical
health, or inattentive driving.
●Although the emergency driv-
ing stop system is designed to
decelerate the vehicle within its
lane to help avoid or help
reduce the impact of a collision
if the system determines that it
is difficult for the driver to con-
tinue driving, its effectiveness
may change according to vari-
ous conditions. Therefore, it
may not always be able to
achieve the same level of per-
formance. Also, if the operating
conditions are not met, this
function will not operate.
●After the emergency driving
stop system operates, if driving
becomes possible again, imme-
diately begin driving again or, if
necessary, park the vehicle on
the shoulder of the road and set
a warning reflector and flare to
warn other drivers of your
stopped vehicle.
●After this system operates, pas-
sengers should attend to the
driver as necessary and take
appropriate hazard prevention
measures, such as moving to a
place where safety can be
ensured, such as the shoulder
of the road or behind a guard-
rail.

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.
