TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 (TSS 2.0) is a set of active safety technologies designed
to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic si\
tuations, in
certain conditions. TSS 2.0 is designed to help support the driver’s \
awareness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving exp\
erience.
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™ 2.0
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 Assist (LDA w/SA)
LDA w/SA 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
the driver 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)
LTA contains all the features of LDA described above and additionally
is designed to help keep the vehicle in the center of a lane by assistin\
g
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-I\
nformation
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 addi\
tional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and m\
ay apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is dep\
ressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines tha\
t 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 he\
lp 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 sensorMillimeter
wave radar
As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to f\
irst provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and inf\
ormation.Under certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS 2.0 packa\
ge
may also help to detect a pedestrian or bicyclist in front of your vehic\
le 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 bicycl\
ist may not
be detected depending on the conditions, including the surrounding brigh\
tness
and the motion, posture, size, and angle of the potential detected pedes\
trian or
bicyclist, preventing the system from operating or engaging.
