TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
SMART STOP TECHNOLOGY (SST)
Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces engine power when the accelerator\

and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
SST engages when the accelerator is depressed first and the brakes are appl\
ied
firmly for longer than one-half second at speeds greater than five miles per h\
our.
SST doesn’t engage if the brake pedal is depressed before the accelerato\
r pedal,
allowing vehicles to start on a steep hill and safely accelerate without rolling\

backward.
Star Safety System™
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases \
brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction tha\
t
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control.\
BRAKE ASSIST (BA)
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or “panic” braking, and then \
add braking
pressure to help decrease the vehicle’s stopping distance. When there’s on\
ly a split
second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more quickly t\
han
just the driver alone can.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. EBD responds to sudden stops by
redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of all four wheels. Your vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety System
TM, which combines Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Brake-force Dis\
tribution
(EBD), Smart Stop Technology (SST), Traction Control (TRAC) and Vehicle St\
ability
Control (VSC).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
ENHANCED VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control provides cooperative control of the ABS, TRAC\
,
VSC and EPS.
Enhanced VSC helps to maintain directional stability when loss of traction occur\
s
during a turn.
