Curve speed reduction function
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 distance 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
Support for lane change
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 ( lefthand 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 manufactured for a right-hand traffic location , but is being driven in a left-hand traffic location . The vehicle may accelerate when the turn signal lever is operated to the right .)
If your vehicle is being driven at approximately 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 changing lanes .
