Cancelation of the pre-collision braking
If either of the following occur while the pre-collision braking function is oper-
ating, it will be canceled:
●
The accelerator pedal is depressed strongly.
●
The steering wheel is turned sharply or abruptly.
■
Conditions under which the system may operate even if there is no pos-
sibility of a collision
●
In some situations such as the following, the system may determine that
there is a possibility of a frontal collision and operate.
• When passing a detectable object, etc.
• When changing lanes while overtaking a detectable object, etc.
• When rapidly closing on a detectable object, etc.
• When approaching objects on the roadside, such as detectable objects,
guardrails, utility poles, trees, or walls
The system detects objects based on
their size, profile, motion, etc. However,
an object may not be detected depending
on the surrounding brightness and the
motion, posture, and angle of the
detected object, preventing the system
from operating properly. (
The illustration shows an image of detect-
able objects.
• When approaching a detectable
object in an adjacent lane or on the
roadside, such as when changing the
course of travel or driving on a wind-
ing road

• When there are patterns or paint in front of your vehicle that may be mis-
taken for a detectable object
• When the front of your vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc.
• When a detectable object approaches very close and then stops before
entering the path of your vehicle
• If the front of your vehicle is raised or lowered, such as when on an
uneven or undulating road surface
• When driving on a road surrounded by a structure, such as in a tunnel or
on an iron bridge
• When there is a metal object (manhole cover, steel plate, etc.), steps, or a
protrusion in front of your vehicle
• When approaching an electric toll gate barrier, parking area barrier, or
other barrier that opens and closes
• When using an automatic car wash
• When there is a detectable object or
other object by the roadside at the
entrance of a curve

the radar sensor and front camera, preventing the system from operating
properly:
• When a detectable object is approaching your vehicle
• When your vehicle or a detectable object is wobbling
• If a detectable object makes an abrupt maneuver (such as sudden swerv-
ing, acceleration or deceleration)
• When your vehicle approaches a detectable object rapidly
• When a detectable object is near a wall, fence, guardrail, manhole cover,
vehicle, steel plate on the road, etc.
• When a detectable object is under a structure
• When part of a detectable object is hidden by an object, such as large
baggage, an umbrella, or guardrail
• When multiple detectable objects are close together
• If the sun or other light is shining directly on a detectable object
• When a detectable object is a shade of white and looks extremely bright
• When a detectable object appears to be nearly the same color or bright-
ness as its surroundings

LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
While driving on a road with clear white (yellow) lane lines, the LTA
system warns the driver if the vehicle may deviate from the current
lane or course
*
, and also can slightly operate the steering wheel to
help avoid deviation from the lane or course
*
. Also, while the dynamic
radar cruise control with full-speed range is operating, this system will
operate the steering wheel to maintain the vehicle’s lane position.
The LTA 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.

WARNING
■
Before using LTA system
●
Do not rely solely upon the LTA system. The LTA 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 LTA system, use the LTA switch to turn the system off.
■
