Driving
eling at an extremely low speed
Immediately after the vehicle speed
has been set
When the accelerator pedal is
depressed
When a curve is detected, the vehicle
speed will begin being reduced. When
the curve ends, the vehicle speed
reduction will end.
Depending on the situation, the vehicle
speed will then return to the set vehicle
speed.
In situations where vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance control needs to operate, such as
when a preceding vehicle cuts in front of
your vehicle, the curve speed reduction
function will be canceled.
■ Situations in which the curve speed
reduction function may not operate
In situations such as the following, the curve
speed reduction function may not operate:
● When the vehicle is being driven around
a gentle curve
● When the accelerator pedal is being
depressed
● When the vehicle is being driven around
an extremely short curve
While a warning of the driver monitor
is being displayed, the vehicle acceler-
ation will be restrained.
When the warning of the driver moni-
tor disappears, the restrained acceler-
ation control will end.
If your vehicle is being driven at
approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) or
more and a lane change to the passing
lane is performed, when the turn signal
lever is operated and the lane is
changed, the vehicle will accelerate up
to the set speed to assist in overtaking.
The system’s recognition of which lane is
the passing lane may be based solely on
the location of the steering wheel in the
vehicle (left-hand drive/right-hand drive).
If the vehicle is driven in a location where
the passing lane is on the opposite side of
that where the vehicle was originally sold,
the vehicle may accelerate when the turn
signal lever is operated away from the
passing lane. (e.g. The vehicle was manu-
factured to be driven on roads for right-
hand drive vehicles [that overtake on the
right], but is being used on roads for left-
hand drive vehicles [that overtake on the
left]. In this case, the vehicle may acceler-
ate when the turn signal lever is operated
to the right.)
If your vehicle is being driven at approxi-
mately 50 mph (80 km/h) or more and
the lane is changed to that with a vehicle
traveling slower than your vehicle, when
the turn signal lever is operated the vehicle
will gradually decelerate to assist in chang-
