WARNING
■
Before using LTA system
●
Do not rely solely upon the LTA system. The LTA system does not auto-
matically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by paying careful attention to the surround-
ing conditions and operating the steering wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such
as from driving for a long period of time.
●
Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
●
When not using the LTA system, use the LTA switch to turn the system off.
■
Situations unsuitable for LTA system
In the following situations, use the LTA switch to turn the system off. Failure
to do so may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.

fallen snow, freezing, etc.
