1

: A speed limit sign with a value greater than 130 may not be recognized

and a wrong speed limit may be displayed.

*

2

: If the turn signal indicator is not operated when changing lanes, the mark

does not display.

In the following situations, the RSA system alerts the driver using a
warning display.
● When the vehicle speed exceeds the speed warning threshold

applied to the speed limit of the sign displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display, the sign color becomes inverted.

● If it is detected that your vehicle is overtaking when a no overtaking

sign is displayed on the multi-information display, the sign flashes.

Depending on the situation, traffic environment (traffic direction,
speed, unit) may be detected incorrectly and a warning display may
not operate properly.

■

Automatic turn-off of RSA sign display
One or more signs automatically turn off in the following situations.

●

A new sign is not recognized for a certain distance.

●

The road changes due to a left or right turn, etc.

■

Conditions in which the function may not operate or detect correctly
In the following situations, RSA does not operate normally and may not rec-
ognize signs, display the incorrect sign, etc. However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.

●

The camera sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact being applied to
the sensor, etc.

●

Dirt, snow, stickers, etc., are on the windshield near the camera sensor.

●

In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms

●

Light from an oncoming vehicle, the sun, etc., enters the camera sensor.

●

The sign is dirty, faded, tilted or bent, and if an electronic sign, the contrast
is poor.

●

All or part of the sign is hidden by the leaves of a tree, a pole, etc.

●

The sign is only visible to the camera sensor for a short amount of time.

●

The driving scene (turning, lane change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.

●

Even if it is a sign not appropriate for the currently traveled lane, such a sign
exists directly after a freeway branches, or in an adjacent lane just before
merging.

●

Stickers are attached to the rear of the preceding vehicle.

●

A sign resembling a system compatible sign is recognized.

●

The vehicle is driven in a country with a different direction of traffic.

●

Side road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight
of the camera sensor) while the vehicle is traveling on the main road.

●

Roundabout exit road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if posi-
tioned in sight of the camera sensor) while traveling on a roundabout.

●

The speed information displayed on the meter and that displayed on the
Navigation system (if equipped) may be different due to the Navigation sys-
tem or Multimedia system using map data.

■

When driving vehicle in country with different speed unit
Since RSA recognizes signs based on the set unit of the meter, it is neces-
sary to change the set unit of the meter. Adjust the set unit of the meter to the
speed unit of signs in the current location. (

→P. 649)

■

Turning the system on/off

Use the meter control switches to select 

 while the vehicle is stopped and

press 

, and select 

 and press 

.

■

Speed limit sign display
If the engine switch was last turned to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without
smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with smart entry & start system)
while a speed limit sign was displayed on the multi-information display, the
same sign displays again when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode
(vehicles with smart entry & start system).

■

Customization
Setting (e.g. speeding warning threshold) can be changed.
