Pressing the cancel switch
cancels the speed control.

The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is depressed.
(When the vehicle has been
stopped by system control,
depressing the brake pedal does
not cancel the setting.)

Pressing the “+RES” switch
resumes the cruise control
and returns vehicle speed to
the set speed.

When your vehicle is too close
to a vehicle ahead, and suffi-
cient automatic deceleration via
the cruise control is not possi-
ble, the display will flash and the
buzzer will sound to alert the
driver. An example of this would
be if another driver cuts in front
of you while you are following a
vehicle. Depress the brake
pedal to ensure an appropriate
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.

RSA (Road Sign

Assist)

The RSA system recognizes
specific road signs using
the front camera to provide
information to the driver via
the display.

If the system judges that the
vehicle is being driven over
the speed limit, performing
prohibited actions, etc.
according to the recog-
nized road signs, it notifies
the driver through a visual
notification and notification
buzzer.

WARNING

■

Before using the RSA

Do not rely solely upon the RSA

system. RSA is a system which

supports the driver by providing

information, but it is not a replace-

ment for a driver’s own vision and

awareness. Drive safely by

always paying careful attention to

the traffic rules.

The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver in
confirming safety when
changing lanes.

WARNING

■

Cautions regarding the use of

the system

The driver is solely responsible for

safe driving. Always drive safely,

taking care to observe your sur-

roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-

plementary function which alerts

the driver that a vehicle is in a

blind spot of the outside rear view

mirrors or is approaching rapidly

from behind into a blind spot. Do

not overly rely on the Blind Spot

Monitor. As the function cannot

judge if it is safe to change lanes,

over reliance could lead to an

accident resulting in death or seri-

ous injury.
As the system may not function

correctly under certain condi-

tions, the driver’s own visual con-

firmation of safety is necessary.
