4-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
Before using the LTA system
■
Do not overly rely on the LTA
●
system. The LTA system is not a
system which provides auto-
mated assistance in driving and
it is not a system which reduces
the amount of attention neces-
sary 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 care-
ful attention may lead to an
accident.
When not using the LTA system,
●
turn it off using the LTA switch.
Operating conditions of func-
■
tion
This function is operable when all of
the following conditions are met:
The LTA system detects lane lines
●
or the path of preceding or sur-
rounding vehicles.
The dynamic radar cruise control
●
is operating.
The lane width is approximately
●
10 to 13 ft. (3 to 4 m).
The turn signal lever is not being
●
operated.
The vehicle is not being driven
●
around a sharp curve.
The vehicle is not accelerating or
●
decelerating more than a certain
amount.
The steering wheel is not being
●
turned with a large force.
The hands off steering wheel
●
warning (P.259) is not operat-
ing.
The vehicle is being driven in the
●
center of a lane.
Temporary cancelation of func-
■
tions
When the operating conditions are
●
no longer met, a function may be
temporarily canceled. However,
when the operation conditions are
met again, operation of the func-
tion will automatically be restored.
(P.258)
If the operating conditions of a
●
function are no longer met while
the function is operating, a buzzer
may sound to indicate that the
function has been temporarily
canceled.
The steering assist operation of
●
the function can be overridden by
the steering wheel operation of
the driver.
Lane departure warning func-
■
tion when the LTA is operating
Even if the LDA warning method is
●
changed to vibration of the steer-
ing wheel, if the vehicle deviates
from the lane while the LTA is
operating, the warning buzzer will
