NOTE:
DMS recognizes features such as the posi-
tion of the driver's eyes, nose, mouth and
head by using the camera.
It may not function properly when features
such as the position of the eyes, nose,
mouth and head cannot be recognized.
Adjust the seat and steering wheel position
to adopt the correct driving posture.
Asleep at the wheel warning
When the DMS detects the driver's eyes
being closed, blinking and increasing
yawning etc. while driving at speeds of
approximately 65 km/h (40 mph) or more, it
warns the driver with an alarm if the sys-
tem determines that the driver feels
drowsy.
• When the asleep at the wheel warning is
activated, the drowsy warning light will
come on, the asleep at the wheel warn-
ing in the information display will appear
and the interior buzzer will beep to warn
the driver.
NOTE:
Even if the driver feels awake, if there is
still a suspicion of drowsiness, the warning
signal may be operated every few minutes.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 65 km/h (40
mph) or more while the driver is suspected
to be sleepy, the warning signal may be
operated each time. In such cases, it is
recommended to take a break as soon as
possible.
After the asleep at the wheel warning is
activated, the DMS alert will not be acti-
vated for about five minutes.
Drowsiness warning
If the DMS detects the driver's eyes being
closed or inclination of neck while driving
at approximately 65 km/h (40 mph) or
more, it will warn the driver with a warning
signal.
• When the drowsiness warning is acti-
vated, the drowsy warning light will come
on, the drowsiness warning in the infor-
mation display will appear and the inte-
rior buzzer will beep to warn the driver.
• The drowsiness warning continues to
warn until DMS determines that the
driver has awakened from a doze.
NOTE:
After the drowsiness warning is activated,
the DMS alert will not be activated for
about five minutes.
