■Toyota Safety Sense 2.0
The Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 is 
designed to operate under the 
assumption that the driver will 
drive safely, and is designed to 
help reduce the impact to the 
occupants and the vehicle in the 
case of a collision or assist the 
driver in normal driving condi-
tions.
As there is a limit to the degree of 
recognition accuracy and control 
performance that this system can 
provide, do not overly rely on this 
system. The driver is always 
responsible for paying attention to 
the vehicle’s surroundings and 
driving safely.

■If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information display
A system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be a malfunction in 
the system.
●In the following situations, perform the  actions specified in the table. When 
the normal operating cond itions are detected, the message will disappear 
and the system will be come operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationActions
When the area around a sensor is 
covered with dirt, moisture (fogged 
up, covered with condensation, ice, 
etc.), or other foreign matterTo clean the part of the windshield in 
front of the front camera , use the 
windshield wipers or the windshield 
defogger of the air conditioning sys-
tem ( P.394).

●In the following situations, if the situation has changed (or the vehicle has 
been driven for some time) and the normal operating conditions are 
detected, the message will disappear and the sy stem will become opera-
tional.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
• When the temperature around the radar sensor is outside of the opera- tional range, such as when the vehicle  is in the sun or in an extremely cold 
environment
• When the front camera cannot detect objects in front of the vehicle, such  as when driving in the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright lights are shining 
into the front camera
When the temperature around the 
front camera is outside of the opera-
tional range, such as when the vehi-
cle is in the sun or in an extremely 
cold environment
If the front camera  is hot, such as 
after the vehicle had been parked in 
the sun, use the air conditioning sys-
tem to decrease the temperature 
around the front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the 
vehicle was parked, depending on its 
type, the sunlight  reflected from the 
surface of the sunshade may cause 
the temperature of the front camera 
to become excessively high.
If the front camera  is cold, such after 
the vehicle is parked in an extremely 
cold environment, use the air condi-
tioning system to increase the tem-
perature around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera 
is obstructed, such as when the 
hood is open or a sticker is attached 
to the part of the windshield in front 
of the front camera.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, 
etc. to clear the obstruction.

The system can detect the fol-
lowing:
Vehicles
 Bicyclists
 Pedestrians
■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 to urge 
the driver to take evasive action.
■Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines 
that the possibility of a frontal 
collision is high, the system 
applies greater braking force in 
relation to how strongly the 
brake pedal is depressed.
■Pre-collision braking
If the system determines that 
the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is extremely high, the 
brakes are automatically applied 
to help avoid the collision or 
reduce the impact of the colli-
sion.
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system 
uses a radar sensor and 
front camera to detect 
objects ( P.178) in front of 
the vehicle. When the sys-
tem determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with an object is high, a 
warning operates to urge 
the driver to take evasive 
action and the potential 
brake pressure is increased 
to help the driver avoid the 
collision. If the system 
determines that the possi-
bility of a frontal collision 
with an object is extremely 
high, the brakes are auto-
matically applied to help 
avoid the collision or help 
reduce the impact of the col-
lision.
The pre-collision system 
can be disabled/enabled 
and the warning timing can 
be changed. ( P.180)

large truck or guardrail
• When driving near a TV tower,  broadcasting station, electric 
power plant, or other location 
where strong radio waves or elec-
trical noise may be present
■Situations in which the system 
may not operate properly
●In some situations such as the fol-
lowing, an object may not be 
detected by the radar sensor and 
front camera, preventing the sys-
tem from operating properly:
• When a detectable object is  approaching your vehicle
• When your vehicle or a detectable  object is wobbling
• If a detectable object makes an  abrupt maneuver (such as sudden

• When driving through steam or  smoke
• When the surrounding area is dim, 
such as at dawn or dusk, or while 
at night or in a tunnel, making a 
detectable object appear to be 
nearly the same color as its sur-
roundings
• When driving in a place where the 
surrounding brightness changes 
suddenly, such as at the entrance 
or exit of a tunnel
• After the engine has started the  vehicle has not been driven for a 
certain amount of time
• While making a left/right turn and  for a few seconds after making a 
left/right turn
• While driving on a curve and for a  few seconds after driving on a 
curve

• The vehicle is being driven at  extremely high speeds.
• When driving on a hill
• If the radar sensor or front camera  is misaligned
●In some situations such as the fol-
lowing, sufficient  braking force 
may not be obtained, preventing 
the system from performing prop-
erly:
• If the braking functions cannot  operate to their full extent, such as 
when the brake parts are 
extremely cold, extremely hot, or 
wet
• If the vehicle is not properly main- tained (brakes or tires are exces- sively worn, improper tire inflation 
pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven 
on a gravel road or other slippery 
surface

■Hands off steering wheel warn-
ing
In the following si tuations, a warning 
message urging the driver to hold 
the steering wheel and the symbol 
shown in the illustration are dis-
played on the multi-information dis-
play to warn the driver. The warning 
stops when the system determines 
that the driver holds the steering 
wheel. Always keep your hands on 
the steering wheel when using this 
system, regardle ss of warnings.
●When the system determines that 
the driver is driving without hold-
ing the steering wheel while the 
system is operating
If the driver continues to keep their 
hands off of the steering wheel, the 
buzzer sounds, the driver is warned 
and the function is temporarily can-
celed. This warning also operates in 
the same way when the driver con-
tinuously operates the steering 
wheel only a small amount.
●When the system determines that 
the vehicle may not turn and 
instead depart from  its lane while 
driving around a curve
Depending on the vehicle condition 
and road conditions, the warning 
may not operate. Also, if the system 
determines that the vehicle is driv-
ing around a curve, warnings will 
occur earlier than during 
straight-lane driving.
●When the system determines that 
the driver is driving without hold-
ing the steering wheel while the 
steering wheel assist of the steer-
ing assist function is operating. If the driver continues to keep their 
hands off of the steering wheel and 
the steering wheel assist is operat-
ing, the buzzer sounds and the 
driver is warned. Each time the 
buzzer sounds, the continuing time 
of the buzzer becomes longer.
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the system determines that 
the vehicle is swaying while the 
vehicle sway warning function is 
operating, a buzzer sounds and a 
warning message urging the driver 
to rest and the symbol shown in the 
illustration are simultaneously dis-
played on the multi-information dis-
play.
Depending on the vehicle and road 
conditions, the warning may not 
operate.
■Warning message
If the following warning message is 
displayed on the multi-information 
display and the LTA indicator illumi-
nates in orange, follow the appropri-
ate troubleshooting  procedure. Also, 
if a different warning message is 
displayed, follow the instructions 
displayed on the screen.

WARNING
■Before using dynamic radar 
cruise control with full-speed 
range
●Driving safely is the sole 
responsibility of the driver. Do 
not rely solely on the system, 
and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attention to your sur-
roundings.
●The dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range pro-
vides driving assistance to 
reduce the driver’s burden. 
However, there are limitations to 
the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions 
carefully. Do not  overly rely on 
this system and always drive 
carefully.
• When the sensor may not be  correctly detecting the vehicle 
ahead: 
P.213
• Conditions under which the  vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode may not function cor-
rectly: 
P. 2 1 4
●Set the speed appropriately 
depending on the speed limit, 
traffic flow, road conditions, 
weather conditions, etc. The 
driver is responsible for check-
ing the set speed.
●Even when the system is func-
tioning normally, the condition of 
the preceding vehicle as 
detected by the system may dif-
fer from the condition observed 
by the driver. Therefore, the 
driver must always  remain alert, 
assess the danger of each situ-
ation and drive safely. Relying 
solely on this system or assum-
ing the system ensures safety 
while driving can lead to an 
accident, resulting in death or 
serious injury.
●Switch the dynamic radar cruise 
control with full-speed range 
setting to off, using the cruise 
control main switch when not in 
use.
■Cautions regarding the driv-
ing assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to 
the assistance provided by the 
system.
Failure to do so may cause an 
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
