How to Use the Distance & Speed Alert (DSA)

Operating the DSA

The DSA operates when all of the following conditions are met.

  • The vehicle speed is about 30 km/h (19 mph) or faster.

  • The system determines that the distance to the vehicle ahead is close.

When the DSA operates, the screen display notifies the driver that the distance between your vehicle and a vehicle ahead is close.
