4-5. Using the driving support systems
P.284
The Traffic Jam Assist function,
through confirmation of the conditions
by the driver, provides lane keeping,
accelerating/decelerating and stop-
ping support on some highways and
expressways.
This function is operable when all of the
operation conditions are met. When
this function is operating, it is possible
to take your hands off of the steering
wheel.
Before using the Traffic Jam Assist func-
tion, familiarize yourself with the content of
the dynamic radar cruise control and the
LTA (Lane Tracing Assist).
Make sure that the driver steers the vehi-
cle when entering a service area/parking
area or toll gate, or when changing lanes.
■ Driver monitor camera recording
When the operation of Traffic Jam
Assist is started, the following message
will be displayed:
“Allow Driver Monitor Camera
Recording?”
When recording is approved, the system
records images of the area around the
driver in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an SRS airbag being
deployed or the vehicle hitting an object on
the road. (P.7)

Traffic Jam Assist Function
■ For safe use
● Driving safely is solely the responsibil-
ity of the driver. Do not overly rely on
this system, and pay careful attention
to the surrounding conditions in order
to ensure safe driving.
● The Traffic Jam Assist function is not
an automated driving system. This
function provides the driver with infor-
mation and driving assistance accord-
ing to the road shape and conditions,
traffic conditions, and the condition of
the driver themself. Always pay careful
attention to the surrounding condi-
tions as use of the system is the
responsibility of the driver.
● Depending on the condition of the sur-
rounding area, the road, or the driver,
the Traffic Jam Assist function may not
operate or operation may be sus-
pended. Also, it may not always be
able to achieve the same level of per-
formance. Read the operating condi-
tions of the function carefully. Do not
overly rely on this function and always
drive carefully.
● As the recognition performance and
control performance of the Traffic Jam
Assist function are limited, driver oper-
ation is necessary to ensure safety
while the system is operating. Also, the
steering assist of this system is
designed to operate only for slow
steering operations during a traffic
jam. While this function is operating,
the lane deviation control function of
the LDA will not operate. If, for some
reason, the vehicle is about to deviate
the lane, it is the driver’s responsibility
to drive properly.
