4-5. Using the driving support systems
LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
While driving on a road with clear
white (yellow) lane lines, the LTA
system warns the driver if the vehi-
cle 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.
*
: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil, or
a curb
Before using LTA system
■
●
Do not rely solely upon the LTA sys-
tem. 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 pay-
ing 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.
■
Situations unsuitable for LTA system
In the following situations, use the LTA
switch to turn the system off. Failure to do
so may lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
Vehicle is driven on a road surface
●
which is slippery due to rainy weather,
fallen snow, freezing, etc.
Vehicle is driven on a snow-covered
●
road.
White (yellow) lines are difficult to see
●
due to rain, snow, fog, dust, etc.
Vehicle is driven in a temporary lane
●
or restricted lane due to construction
work.
