: If equipped
This function is linked to the LTA
and provides assistance in per-
forming lane changes through
steering wheel operations.
Use the this function only on high-
ways and expressways.
The steering assist operation can
be overridden by the steering wheel
operation of the driver.
The lane change assist function is
not designed to operate when
changing lanes at a junction.
■ Operating conditions of func-
tion
This function is operable when all of
the following conditions are met:
● The LTA is operating.
● The lane change assist function is
enabled by a customize setting.
● The vehicle speed is between
approximately 55 and 85 mph (90
and 140 km/h).
● The system detects a broken
white line on the side which the
lane change is to be performed.
● A vehicle is not detected in the
lane toward which the turn signal
is operated.
● The steering wheel is not being
turned with a large force.
LCA (Lane Change
Assist)
*
LCA functions
■ Before using the LCA system
● Do not overly rely on the LCA
system.
The LCA system is not a system
which provides automated assis-
tance in driving and it is not a sys-
tem which reduces the need for
checking an adjacent lane for
other vehicles, approaching vehi-
cles, etc. when changing lanes.
The driver is solely responsible for
paying attention to their surround-
ings and operating the steering
wheel as necessary to ensure
safety.
Also, do not use the LCA to
change lanes into which a lane
change should not be performed
(oncoming lanes, road shoulders,
etc.).
● Failure to perform appropriate
driving operations and pay care-
ful attention may lead to an
accident.
