WARNING
●
Assisting the driver to judge
proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control
determines whether the following
distance between the driver's own
vehicle and a designated vehicle
traveling ahead is within a set
range. It is not capable of making
any other type of judgement.
Therefore, it is absolutely neces-
sary for the driver to remain vigi-
lant and to determine whether or
not there is a possibility of danger
in any given situation.
●
Assisting the driver to operate
the vehicle
The dynamic radar cruise control
does not include functions which
will prevent or avoid collisions
with vehicles ahead of your vehi-
cle. Therefore, if there is ever any
possibility of danger, the driver
must take immediate and direct
control of the vehicle and act
appropriately in order to ensure
the safety of all involved.
■
Situations unsuitable for
dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise
control in any of the following situ-
ations.
Doing so may result in inappropri-
ate speed control and could
cause an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
