Lane Tracing Assist

LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)

LTA functions

When driving on a road with clear lane lines
with the dynamic radar cruise control operat-
ing, lane lines and preceding and surrounding
vehicles are detected using the front camera
and radar sensor, and the steering wheel is op-
erated to maintain the vehicle’s lane position.

Use the this function only on highways and ex-
pressways.
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 provided using the path of preceding
and surrounding vehicles.
If the system determines that the steering wheel has not been operated for a certain
amount of time or the steering wheel is not being firmly gripped, the driver will be
alerted via a display and this function will be temporarily canceled.
If the steering wheel is firmly gripped, the function will begin operating again.

When the function is operating, if the vehicle is
likely to depart from its lane, the driver will be
alerted via a display and buzzer.

When the buzzer sounds, check the area around
the vehicle and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to the center of
the lane.

WARNING

Before using the LTA system

Do not overly rely on the LTA system. The LTA system is a system which provides
automated assistance in driving. However, as it is not a system which reduces the
amount of attention necessary for safe driving. The driver is solely responsible for
paying attention to their surroundings and operating the steering wheel as necessary
to ensure safety. Also, the driver is responsible for taking adequate breaks when
fatigued, such as when driving for a long time.
Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention may lead
to an accident.

When not using the LTA system, turn it off using the LTA switch.

LCA (Lane Change Assist)

LCA functions

This function is linked to the LTA and provides assistance in performing lane
changes through steering wheel operations when the turn signal lever is held
partway

When not using the LCA system, turn it off using the LCA switch.
Use the this function only on highways and expressways.
The steering assist operation can be overridden by the steering wheel operation of the
driver.
The lane change assist function is not designed to operate when changing lanes at a
junction.

WARNING

Before using the LCA system

Do not overly rely on the LCA system.
The LCA system is a system which provides automated assistance in driving. However,
as it is not a system which reduces the need for checking an adjacent lane for
other vehicles, approaching vehicles, etc. when changing lanes. The driver is solely
responsible for paying attention to their surroundings 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 careful attention may lead
to an accident.
