Stop & Start Engine System
If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start Engine System when the vehicle is
on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent rolling backwards
until the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automatically
canceled.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details on this system before
attempting to use it.
HILL-START ASSIST CONTROL (HAC)
Rear view monitor system (if equipped)

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+ (TSS 2.5+) is a set of active safety technologies
designed to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic
situations, in certain conditions. TSS 2.5+ is designed to help support the driver’s
awareness, decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving
experience.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for operation, setting adjustments, limitations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautions. For
more information, please go to http://www.toyota.com/safety-sense.
Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)PCS w/PD is designed to provide alert, mitigation, and/or avoidance support in certain conditions, when the system detects a potential collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
The advanced grille-mounted radar system is designed to work with
the forward-facing camera to help recognize a preceding pedestrian or
bicyclist, and provide an alert, mitigation and/or avoidance support in
certain conditions.
Lane Departure Alert with Steering AssistLane Departure Alert with Steering Assist is designed to provide notification when the system detects an unintended lane departure.
The Steering Assist function is designed to provide small corrective steering inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its lane. The Sway Warning function is designed to detect vehicle swaying (based on the vehicle location and steering wheel operation) and alert drivers with an audio and visual alert, urging them to take a break.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the tail lights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams and low beams as appropriate.
Road Sign Assist (RSA)RSA is designed to recognize specific road signs using the forward- facing camera to provide information to the driver via the display.
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)Full-Speed Range DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed. The minimum set speed is approximately 20 MPH, but once activated, the operating speed range is 0-110 MPH.
Lane Tracing Assist (LTA) SystemLTA contains all the features of Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist described below and additionally is designed to help keep the vehicle in the center of a lane by assisting the driver in steering control when using Full-Speed Range DRCC.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, a
buzzer will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the Multi-Information
Display (MID) to urge the driver to take evasive action.
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may provide additional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and may apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision with a preceding vehicle is extremely high, the
system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to help the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to use it.
Monocular camera sensorMillimeterwave radar
As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an alert and then automatic braking if needed.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and information.
Under certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS 2.5+ package
may also help to detect a pedestrian or bicyclist in front of your vehicle using the
forward-facing camera and front grille-mounted radar. The forward-facing camera of
PCS detects a potential pedestrian or bicyclist based on size, profile, and motion
of the detected pedestrian or bicyclist. However, a pedestrian or bicyclist may not
be detected depending on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness
and the motion, posture, size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian or
bicyclist, preventing the system from operating or engaging.
