Operational conditions
The pre-collision system is enabled and the system determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is high.
Each function is operational at the following speeds:
●
Pre-collision warning:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 10 and 180 km/h (7 and 110 mph). (For
detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between approximately 10 and 80 km/h [7
and 50 mph].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or pedestrian ahead is
approximately 10 km/h (7 mph) or more.
●
Pre-collision brake assist:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 30 and 180 km/h (20 and 110 mph). (For
detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between approximately 30 and 80 km/h
[20 and 50 mph].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or pedestrian ahead is
approximately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more.
●
Pre-collision braking:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 10 and 180 km/h (7 and 110 mph). (For
detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between approximately 10 and 80 km/h [7
and 50 mph].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or pedestrian ahead is
approximately 10 km/h (7 mph) or more.
The system may not operate in the following situations:
●
If a 12-volt battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected and then the vehi-
cle has not been driven for a certain amount of time
●
If the shift position is in R

Cancelation of the pre-collision braking
If either of the following occur while the pre-collision braking function is operating, 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 possibility of a colli-
sion
●
In some situations such as the following, the system may determine that there is a possi-
bility of a frontal collision and operate.
• When passing a vehicle or pedestrian
• When changing lanes while overtaking a preceding vehicle
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle that is changing lanes
The pre-collision system detects pedestrians
based on the size, profile, and motion of a
detected object. However, a pedestrian 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. (
P. 319)
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle that
is making a left/right turn
• When passing a vehicle in an oncoming
lane that is stopped to make a right/left turn

WARNING
■
Before using LDA system
Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. The LDA system does not automatically 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 pay-
ing careful attention to the surrounding 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.
■
To avoid operating LDA system by mistake
When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system off.
■
Situations unsuitable for LDA system
Do not use the LDA system in the following situations.
The system may not operate properly and lead to an accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●

●
When the tires have been excessively worn, or when the tire inflation pressure is low.
●
Tires which differ by structure, manufacturer, brand or tread pattern are used.
●
Objects or patterns that could be mistaken for white (yellow) lines are present on the
side of the road (guardrails, curbs, reflective poles, etc.).
●
Vehicle is driven on a snow-covered road.
●
White (yellow) lines are difficult to see due to rain, snow, fog, dust, etc.
●
Asphalt repair marks, white (yellow) line marks, etc. are present due to road repair.
●
