WARNING
■
Before using dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range
Driving safely is the sole responsibility
●
of the driver. Do not rely solely on the
system, and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attention to your surround-
ings.
The dynamic radar cruise control with
●
full-speed range provides driving
assistance to reduce the driver's bur-
den. However, there are limitations to
the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions carefully.
Do not overly rely on this system and
always drive carefully.
• When the sensor may not be correctly
detecting the vehicle ahead: P.213
• Conditions under which the vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode may
not function correctly: P.214
●
Set the speed appropriately depend-
ing on the speed limit, traffic flow, road
conditions, weather conditions, etc.
The driver is responsible for checking
the set speed.
Even when the system is functioning
●
normally, the condition of the preced-
ing vehicle as detected by the system
may differ from the condition
observed by the driver. Therefore, the
driver must always remain alert, assess
the danger of each situation and drive
safely. Relying solely on this system or
assuming the system ensures safety
while driving can lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●
Switch the dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range setting to off,
using the cruise control main switch
when not in use.

Cautions regarding the driving assist
systems
Observe the following precautions, as
there are limitations to the assistance
provided by the system.
Failure to do so may cause an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
Assisting the driver to measure follow-
●
ing distance
The dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is only intended to help
the driver in determining the following
distance between the driver's own vehi-
cle and a designated vehicle traveling
ahead. It is not a mechanism that allows
careless or inattentive driving, and it is
not a system that can assist the driver in
low-visibility conditions.
It is still necessary for driver to pay close
attention to the vehicle's surroundings.
