WARNING
■Before using the LCA system
●Do not overly rely on the LCA
system.
The LCA system is not a system
which provides automated assis-
tance in driving and it is not a sys-
tem which reduces the need for
checking an adjacent lane for
other vehicles, approaching vehi-
cles, etc. when changing lanes.
The driver is solely responsible for
paying attention to their surround-
ings and operating the steering
wheel as necessary to ensure
safety.
Also, do not use the LCA to
change lanes into which a lane
change should not be performed
(oncoming lanes, road shoulders,
etc.).
●Failure to perform appropriate
driving operations and pay care-
ful attention may lead to an
accident.
