4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
• When vehicles ahead cannot be
detected due to repeated curves, road dividers or roadside trees• When vehicles ahead appear in a far-
away lane on a wide road • When the lights of vehicles ahead are not on
●The high beams may be turned off if a vehicle ahead that is using fog lights
without its headlights turned on is detected.
●House lights, streetlights, traffic sig-nals, and illuminated billboards or signs and other reflective objects may
cause the high beams to change to the low beams, or the low beams to remain on.
●The following factors may affect the amount of time taken for the high
beams to turn on or off: • The brightness of the headlights, fog lights, and tail lights of vehicles ahead
• The movement and direction of vehi- cles ahead• When a vehicle ahead only has oper-
ational lights on one side • When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradient, curve, condition of the road surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and amount of luggage in the vehicle
●The high beams may turn on or off unexpectedly.
●Bicycles or similar vehicles may not be detected.
●In the following situations the system may not be able to correctly detect the surrounding brightness level. This
may cause the low beams to remain on or the high beams to flash or daz-zle pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In
such a case, it is necessary to manu- ally switch between the high and low beams.
• When driving in inclement weather (heavy rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.)
• When the windshield is obscured by
fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or damaged• When the front camera is deformed or
dirty • When the temperature of the front camera is extremely high
• When the surrounding brightness level is equal to that of headlights, tail lights or fog lights
• When headlights or tail lights of vehi- cles ahead are turned off, dirty, chang-ing color, or not aimed properly
• When the vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc., from a preceding vehicle
• When driving through an area of inter- mittently changing brightness and darkness
• When frequently and repeatedly driv- ing ascending/descending roads, or roads with rough, bumpy or uneven
surfaces (such as stone-paved roads, gravel roads, etc.)• When frequently and repeatedly tak-
ing curves or driving on a winding road• When there is a highly reflective
object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or mirror• When the back of a preceding vehicle
is highly reflective, such as a con- tainer on a truck• When the vehicle’s headlights are
damaged or dirty, or are not aimed properly• When the vehicle is listing or titling
due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed, etc.• When the headlights are changed
between the high beams and low beams repeatedly in an abnormal manner
• When the driver believes that the high beams may be flashing or dazzling pedestrians or other drivers

4-5. Using the driving support systems
While driving on a road with clear
white (yellow) lane lines, the LTA
system warns the driver if the vehi-
cle may deviate from the current
lane or course*, and also can
slightly operate the steering wheel
to help avoid deviation from the
lane or course*. Also, while the
dynamic radar cruise control is
operating, this system will operate
the steering wheel to maintain the
vehicle’s lane position.
The LTA system recognizes white
(yellow) lane lines or a course*
using the front camera. Additionally,
it detects preceding vehicles using
the front camera and radar.

Assist)
Summary of functions
WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LTA sys-
tem. The LTA system does not automatically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that
must be paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full responsibility for driving
safely by paying careful attention to the surrounding conditions and operating the steering wheel to cor-
rect the path of the vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such as from
driving for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate driv-
ing operations and pay careful attention may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA system
In the following situations, use the LTA switch to turn the system off. Fail-ure to do so may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.

■The system can be operated when
●The engine switch is in ON.
●Toyota parking assist-sensor function is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
●The shift lever is in other than P.
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on the multi-information display
A sensor may be covered with water
drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc. Remove the
water drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to nor-mal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low temperatures, a warning message may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice melts, the system will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed even
if the sensor is clean, there may be a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are lim-
ited to the areas around the vehicle’ front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-tance may shorten, or detection may
be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if static
objects draw too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between
static object detection and display (warning buzzer sounds). Even at low speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within 30 cm (1.0 ft.) before the display is shown and the warning buzzer sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system
or air flow noise of the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the sound of this system due to the buzzers of
WARNING
●Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
●Do not attach a license plate cover.
●Keep your tires properly inflated.
■When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the function as it may operate even though there is no possibility of a colli-
sion.
●Failing to observe the warnings
above.
●A non-genuine Toyota suspension
(lowered suspension, etc.) is installed.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray the sensors directly, as doing
so may cause a sensor to malfunc- tion.
●When using steam to clean the vehicle, do not direct steam too close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunction.

■Objects which the system may not
be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular
attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections pro-
jecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the sur- rounding environment may affect the ability of a sensor to correctly detect
objects. Particular instances where this may occur are listed below.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen the sensor display may be displayed abnormally, or objects, such
as a wall, may not be detected.
●When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●When vehicle horns, vehicle detec-
tors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, the clearance sonar of other vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the
vehicle
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●If objects draw too close to the sensor.
●Pedestrians wearing clothes which only partially reflect ultrasonic waves
(ex. skirts with gathers or frills).
●When objects that are not perpendicu-
lar to the ground, not perpendicular to the vehicle traveling direction, uneven, or waving are in the detection
range.
●Strong wind is blowing
●When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●When an object that cannot be detected is between the vehicle and a
detected object
●If an object such as a vehicle, motor-
cycle, bicycle or pedestrian cuts in front of the vehicle or runs out from the side of the vehicle
●If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact
●When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier,
or snow plow

4-5. Using the driving support systems
If both the TRC and VSC systems are
turned off, automatic re-enabling will not occur when vehicle speed increases.
■Operating conditions of Active Cor-
nering Assist
The system operates when the following occurs.
●TRC/VSC can operate
●The driver is attempting to accelerate while turning
●The system detects that the vehicle is drifting to the outer side
●The brake pedal is released
■Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is
reduced to prevent the system from overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period
of time. The steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur, refrain from excessive steering input or
stop the vehicle and turn the engine off. The EPS system should return to nor-mal within 10 minutes.
■Operating conditions of emergency
brake signal
When the following conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will oper-
ates:
●The emergency flashers are off
●Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph)
●The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that it is a sudden brak-
ing operation.
■Automatic system cancelation of emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will be can-
celed in any of the following situations:
●The emergency flashers are turned
on.
●The system judges from the vehicle
deceleration that is not a sudden brak- ing operation.
■Secondary Collision Brake operat-
ing conditions
The system operates when the SRS air- bag sensor detects a collision while the
vehicle is in motion. However, the system does not operate when components are damaged.
■Secondary Collision Brake auto-
matic cancelation
The system is automatically canceled in any of the following situations.
●The vehicle speed drops to approxi-mately 0 km/h (0 mph)
●A certain amount of time elapses during operation
●The accelerator pedal is depressed a large amount
WARNING
■The ABS does not operate effec-tively when
●The limits of tire gripping perfor-
mance have been exceeded (such as excessively worn tires on a snow covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while driv-ing at high speed on wet or slick
roads.
■Stopping distance when the ABS
is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten
the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially
in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or
snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road
●When driving over roads with pot-holes or uneven surfaces

Driving
WARNING
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec- tively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-pery road surfaces, even if the
TRC/VSC system is operating. Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be
lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does not
operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active Corner- ing Assist. Active Cornering Assist
may not operate effectively when accelerating down slopes or driving on slippery road surfaces.
●When Active Cornering Assist fre-quently operates, Active Cornering
Assist may temporarily stop operat- ing to ensure proper operation of the brakes, TRC and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start assist control may not operate effectively on steep
inclines and roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-start
assist control is not intended to hold the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not
attempt to use hill-start assist con- trol to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.
■When the TRC/VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular
care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a
speed appropriate to the road condi- tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driv-
ing force, do not turn the TRC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern
and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recommended tire inflation pres-
sure level. The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspen-sion
Using tires with any kind of problem
or modifying the suspension will affect the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not rely solely upon the Secondary
Collision Brake. This system is designed to help reduce the possibil-ity of further damage due to a second-
ary collision, however, that effect changes according to various condi-tions. Overly relying on the system
may result in death or serious injury.
