(3) Press the “POWER” switch briefly and firmly.
(4) The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light \
remains steady
and a beep sounds, you may begin driving.
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline \
engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power fo\
r the
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking for\
ce
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In add\
ition, the
engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fu\
el economy,
reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are shown on the Multi-Information Display and/or navigation system
screen (if equipped).
1. Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
2. Link trips to reduce engine cold starts whenever possible.
3. Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on\
the highway.
4. When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking en\
ergy.
5. Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.

Use Eco drive mode to help achieve low fuel consumption during trips tha\
t involve
frequent accelerating.
Use EV drive mode when driving short distances to reduce noise late at n\
ight in resi-
dential areas or to cut emissions when parking in a small garage or und\
erground car
park. *
The engine switch must be “ON” and the brake pedal depressed to sh\

Park.
Shift the shift lever to “S” position from “D” position.
+: Upshift (push and release)
-: Downshift (pull and release)
Downshifting increases power going uphill, or provides engine braking do\

best fuel economy during normal driving conditions, always drive with th\

OVERVIEW
FEATURES & OPERATIONS
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help d\
etect a
vehicle or pedestrian in front of your vehicle.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control pe\
rformance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This sy\
stem will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situati\
on. Do not use
PCS instead of normal braking operations under any circumstances. Do not\
attempt
to test the operation of the pre-collision system yourself, as the syste\
m may not
operate or engage, possibly leading to an accident. In some situations, \
such as
when driving in inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a san\
dstorm or
while driving on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve,\
a vehicle
may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventing the syst\
em from
operating or engaging properly.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situations \
in which the
system may not operate properly.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS w/\
PD operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it. Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision i\
s 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.

(1) Press “” switches and select from the Multi-Information Display (MID).
(2) Press “
” switches and select from the MID and then press “.”
(3) Select “Sensitivity” and then press “
.”
Each time “
” is pressed, the response to the PCS alert timing changes as shown
above. You can press “
” to go back to the menu.
Note: PCS is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition On.
The system can be disabled/enabled and the alert timing of the system can be
changed. (Alert timing only, brake operation remains the same).
Monocular camera sensor
Millimeter
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.In certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package ma\
y also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety\
Sense™ P,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter-wave ra\
dar to
help detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle in certain conditions.\
The in-vehicle
camera of PCS detects a potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and\
motion of
the detected pedestrian. However, a pedestrian may not be detected depen\
ding
on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, \
posture,
size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the sys\
tem from
operating or engaging. Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information.

ADJUSTING DRCC SET SPEED
1 The set speed may also be cancelled by depressing the brake pedal.2 The set speed may be resumed once vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph.
Vehicle will cruise at a set speed, decelerate to maintain selected dist\
ance from a
slower vehicle traveling in front and accelerate back up to the selected\
speed if the
vehicle in front changes lanes or speeds up.

(1) Push the ON-OFF button. The “RADAR READY” or “
” indicator will come on.
(2) Push the lever down to SET speed, push it up to Resume and pull it\
or depress brake to Cancel.
(3) Push up to increase the set speed, push down to decrease (1 mph i\
ncrements).

approximately 320 ft (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-\

following distance and operates to maintain a suitable following distanc\
e from the
vehicle ahead.
Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill
slopes.
