Radar sensorCamera sensor
Sensors
TSS 2.0 combines an in-vehicle camera mounted in front of the inside rea\�r view
mirror and a radar mounted in the front grille. These sensors support th\�e driver assist
systems.
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help d\�etect a
vehicle or pedestrian or bicyclist 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 system \�will not prevent
collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. Do n\�ot use PCS
instead of normal braking operations under any circumstances. Do not att\�empt to test
the operation of the Pre-Collision System yourself, as the system may no\�t operate or
engage, possibly leading to an accident. In some situations, such as whe\�n driving in
inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a sandstorm or while \�driving on a
curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve, a vehicle or pedes\�trian or bicyclist
may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventing the syst\�em from
operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situation\
s in which the
system may not operate properly.
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-Informat\�ion 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 may apply\� greater
braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.

PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS \
operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it. 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 s\�ystem may
automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to help the driv\�er reduce the
impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.
Monocular camera sensorMillimeter
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.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and inf\�ormation.Under certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS 2.0 packa\�ge
may also help to detect a pedestrian or bicyclist in front of your vehic\�le using the
in-vehicle camera and front grille-mounted radar. The in-vehicle camera of PCS
detects a potential pedestrian or bicyclist based on size, profile, and \�motion of
the detected pedestrian or bicyclist. However, a pedestrian or bicyclist\� may not
be detected depending on the conditions, including the surrounding brigh\�tness
and the motion, posture, size, and angle of the potential detected pedes\�trian or
bicyclist, preventing the system from operating or engaging.

ADJUSTING DISTANCE
To change the vehicle-to-vehicle distance

Push the “
” button to cycle
through the settings, which will
change progressively.
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of a preceding v\�ehicle
up to approximately 328 ft (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehic\�le-to-vehicle
following distance and operates to maintain a preset following distance \�from the
vehicle ahead. These distances vary based on vehicle speed.
LONG
(default setting) MIDDLE
SHORT
Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long d\�ownhill
slopes.

(1) Constant speed cruising when there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-\�to-

vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle dis\�tance
control.
(2) Deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising when a preceding vehicle

driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automaticall\�y
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the brake lights will come on\� at this
time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle a\�head
in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. \�A warning
tone warns you when the system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent\� your
vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES

Star Safety System™
Your vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, which combines Anti-
lock Brake System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Brake-force D\�istribution
(EBD), Smart Stop Technology (SST), Traction Control (TRAC) and Ve\�hicle Stability
Control (VSC).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wh\�eel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing release\�s brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the tr\�action that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional c\�ontrol.
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 only a split
second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more qui\�ckly than
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 f\�our wheels.
SMART STOP TECHNOLOGY (SST)
Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces engine power when the accele\�rator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
SST engages when the accelerator is depressed first and the brakes are a\�pplied
firmly for longer than one-half second at speeds greater than five miles\� per hour.
SST doesn’t engage if the brake pedal is depressed before the acceler\�ator pedal,
allowing vehicles to start on a steep hill and safely accelerate without\� rolling
backward.
ENHANCED VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control provides cooperative control of the A\�BS, TRAC,
VSC and EPS.
Enhanced VSC helps to maintain directional stability when loss of tracti\�on occurs
during a turn.

Floor mat installation
SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
There are two types of Toyota floor mats: carpeted and all-weather. Each\� vehicle
has model-specific floor mats. Installation is easy.
To keep your floor mat properly positioned, follow these steps:
•
Only use Toyota floor mats designed for your specific model.
•
Use only one floor mat at a time, using the retaining hooks to keep the \�mat in place.
•
Install floor mats right side up.
TRACTION CONTROL (TRAC)
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine p\�ower, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, o\�r uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels star\�ts to slip.
TRAC limits engine output and applies the brakes to the spinning wheel. \�This
transfers power to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you \�on track.
Always align the Δ marks
