The dimmed light in the exterior
mirror indicates when vehicles are
in the blind spot or are approaching from the rear.
If the turn indicator is switched on
while a vehicle is in the critical area,
the steering wheel vibrates briefly
and the light in the exterior mirror
flashes brightly.
The warning is terminated when the
other vehicle has left the critical
area or the turn signal is deacti-
vated.
When the vehicle is unlocked, the
system performs a self-test by
flashing the light.
At speeds over approx. 250 km/h,
155 mph, the system is temporarily
disabled.

WARNING
The system may not respond at all, or
may respond too late, incorrectly or
without justification due to limits of the
system. There is a danger of acci-
dents or damage to property.
Observe the information on the sys-
tem limits and intervene actively if
necessary.

155 mph, the system once again
responds according to the setting.
The system may have limited func-
tionality in the following situations,
for example:
If the speed of the approaching
vehicle is significantly higher
than the driver's own speed.
In thick fog, wet conditions or
snow.
On sharp bends or narrow roads.
If the bumper is dirty, iced up or
covered, for example by stickers.
When a projecting load is being
transported.
A vehicle message is displayed in
the event of limited functionality.
Depending on the selected setting
for warnings, for example the warn-
ing time, it is possible for more
warnings to be displayed. As a
result, there may be an increased
number of premature warnings
about critical situations.
The system responds to vehicles
approaching from behind.Two radar sensors in the rear
bumper monitor the area behind
the vehicle.
If a vehicle is approaching from
behind at appropriate speed, the
system responds as follows:

WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the visibility conditions and traffic situ-
ation correctly. There is a danger of
accidents. Adapt your driving style to
the traffic conditions. Observe the
traffic situation and intervene actively
if the situation warrants it.

The radar sensors are located in

Keep the bumpers clean and unob-
structed in the area of the radar
sensors.
The system is automatically acti-
vated at the start of each journey.
The system is deactivated in the
following situations:
When reversing.The system may have limited func-
tionality in the following situations:
If the speed of the approaching
vehicle is significantly higher
than the driver's own speed.
If the approaching vehicle is trav-
elling slowly.
In thick fog, wet conditions or
snow.
On sharp bends or narrow roads.
If the bumper is dirty, iced up or
covered, for example by stickers.
When a projecting load is being
transported.
The brake lights flash to warn road
users behind your vehicle that you
are performing an emergency brak-
ing manoeuvre. This can reduce
the risk of a rear-end collision.
WARNING
Displays and warnings do not relieve
you of your personal responsibility.
System limitations can mean that
warnings or system responses are
not issued or are issued too late,
incorrectly or without justification.
There is a danger of accidents. Adapt
your driving style to the traffic condi-
tions. Observe the traffic situation and
intervene actively if the situation war-
rants it.

Normal braking: brake lights illu-
minate.
Heavy braking: brake lights flash.
Shortly before the vehicle comes to
a standstill, the hazard warning
lights are activated.
To switch off the hazard warning
lights:
Accelerate.
Press the hazard warning lights
button.
The system can automatically bring
the vehicle to a standstill in certain
accident situations without the
involvement of the driver. The risk
of a further collision and its conse-
quences can thereby be reduced.
After the vehicle has come to a halt,
the brake is released automatically.
In certain situations, it may be nec-
essary to bring the vehicle to a
standstill more quickly.
To do this, for a short time the brak-
ing pressure applied when stepping
on the brake pedal must be higher
than the braking pressure achieved by the automatic braking function.
This action interrupts the automatic
braking process.
In certain situations, it may be nec-
essary to cancel automatic braking,
for example for an evasive
manoeuvre.
Cancel automatic braking:
By depressing the brake pedal.
By depressing the accelerator
pedal.
The system can detect decreasing
attentiveness or the onset of fatigue
in the driver on long monotonous
journeys, for example on motor-
ways. In this situation, it is recom-
mended that you take a break.

WARNING
The system does not relieve you of

Increasing inattention or fatigue might
not be detected, or may not be
detected in good time. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. Make sure that the
driver is rested and alert. Adapt your
driving style to the traffic conditions.

CONTROLS
A vehicle driving ahead of you is
only detected when it is fully in your
driving path.
If another vehicle suddenly pulls
out in front of you, the system might
not be able to re-establish the
selected distance of its own accord.
In some circumstances, it may also
not be possible to restore the
selected distance if you are driving
significantly faster than vehicles in
front, for example when rapidly
approaching a lorry. If a vehicle is
clearly detected in front of you, the
system prompts you to intervene by
braking, and if necessary by taking
evasive action.If the desired speed is too high for
cornering, it will be reduced slightly
in the bend. However, the system
does not detect bends in advance.
For this reason, moderate your
speed when cornering.
The system has a limited detection
range. Situations can arise on tight
bends where a vehicle driving in
front will not be detected or will be
detected very late.
When your vehicle is approaching a
bend, the angle of the bend may
cause the system to respond tem-
porarily to vehicles in the other
lane. If the system responds by
decelerating the vehicle, you may
compensate for this by accelerating
briefly. When the accelerator pedal
is released again, the system will
resume control of the vehicle's
speed.
The vehicle cannot drive off auto-
matically in some situations, for
example:
On steep upward gradients.

In such cases, depress the acceler-

The following restrictions may apply
if the weather or lighting conditions
are unfavourable:
Impaired detection of vehicles.
Brief interruptions when vehicles
have already been detected.
Examples of unfavourable weather
or lighting conditions:
Wet roads.
Snowfall.
Slush.
Fog.
Oncoming light.
Pay attention when driving and
respond to the prevailing traffic con-
ditions. If necessary, intervene
actively, for example by braking,
steering or manoeuvring.
The desired speed is also main-
tained on a downhill stretch. The
vehicle may drive slower than the
desired speed on uphill gradients if
the engine power is not sufficient.The system cannot be activated if
the radar sensor is not correctly
aligned, for example following park-
ing damage.
A vehicle message is displayed if
the system has failed.
Have the system checked by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
The system may have limited func-
tionality if the radar sensor detec-
tion range is partially covered, for
example by the number plate
holder.
The function for detecting and
responding to stationary vehicles
when approaching may be limited
in the following situation:
During the camera calibration
process immediately after vehi-
cle delivery.
Failure or soiling of the camera.

Due to the system limits, a collision

The function is available at speeds
below walking speed when driving
or rolling in reverse.
Pressing the accelerator pedal
interrupts the braking intervention.
After emergency braking to a stop,
it is possible to continue a slow
approach to the obstacle. To
approach, lightly depress the accel-
erator.
If the accelerator is depressed
more firmly, the vehicle pulls away
as normal. Manual braking is possi-
ble at any time.
