288 5-4 . Using the driving support systems
RSA ( Road Sign Assist )
The RSA system detects specific road signs using the front camera and / or navigation system ( if equipped ) ( when speed limit information is available ) and warns the driver via displays and buzzers .
WARNING
■ For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the responsibility of the driver . Pay careful attention to the surrounding conditions in order to ensure safe driving .
●Do not rely solely upon the RSA . The RSA assists the driver by providing road sign information , but it is not a replacement for the driver ’ s own vision and awareness . Driving safely is solely the responsibility of the driver . Pay careful attention to the surrounding conditions in order to ensure safe driving .
■ Situations in which the RSA should not be used
When it is necessary to disable the system : �P . 261
■ Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Situations in which the sensors may not operate properly : �P . 264
Display Function
• When the front camera detects a sign or information of a sign is available from the navigation system ( if equipped ), the sign will be displayed on the display .
• Multiple signs can be displayed .
Depending on the specifications of the vehicle , the number of displayed signs may be limited .
■ Operating conditions of sign display
Signs will be displayed when the following conditions are met :
●The system has detected a sign
In the following situations , a displayed sign may stop being displayed :
●When a new sign has not been detected for a certain distance
●When the system determines that the road being driven on has
changed , such as after a left or right turn
■ Situations in which the display function may not operate properly
In the following situations , the RSA
system may not operate properly and may not detect signs or may display the incorrect sign . However ,
this does not indicate a malfunction .
●When a sign is dirty , faded , tilted or bent
●When the contrast of an electronic sign is low
●When all or part of a sign is hidden by a tree , utility pole , etc .
●When a sign is detected by the front camera for a short amount of time
●When the driving state ( turning , changing lanes , etc .) is judged incorrectly
●When a sign is immediately after a
