HILUX_OM_OM0K322E_(EE)
The pre-collision system is equipped with a sophisticated computer
that will record certain data, such as:
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Operation status of the pre-collision system functions
• Information (such as the distance and relative speed between your
vehicle and the vehicle ahead or other objects)
The pre-collision system does not record conversations, sounds or
pictures.
● Data usage
Toyota may use the data recorded in this computer to diagnose
malfunctions, conduct research and development, and improve
quality.
Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the
lessee if the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a
government agency
• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific
vehicle or vehicle owner

WARNING
■Limitations of the pre-collision system
● The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
Do not use the pre-collision system instead of normal braking operations
under any circumstances. This system will not prevent collisions or lessen
collision damage or injury in every situation. Do not overly rely on this sys-
tem. Failure to do so may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious
injury.
● Although this system is designed to help avoid a collision or help reduce
the impact of the collision, its effectiveness may change according to vari-
ous conditions, therefore the system may not always be able to achieve
the same level of performance.
Read the following conditions carefully. Do not overly rely on this system
and always drive carefully.
• Conditions under which the system may operate even if there is no pos-
sibility of a collision: P. 327
• Conditions under which the system may not operate properly: P. 3 3 0
● Do not attempt to test the operation of the pre-collision system yourself, as
the system may not operate properly, possibly leading to an accident.
■ Pre-collision braking
● When the pre-collision braking function is operating, a large amount of
braking force will be applied.
● If the vehicle is stopped by the operation of the pre-collision braking func-
tion, the pre-collision braking func tion operation will be canceled after
approximately 2 seconds. Depress the brake pedal as necessary.
● The pre-collision braking function may not operate if certain operations are
performed by the driver. If the accelerator pedal is being depressed
strongly or the steering wheel is bei ng turned, the system may determine
that the driver is taking evasive action and possibly prevent the pre-colli-
sion braking function from operating.
● In some situations, while the pre-collision braking function is operating,
operation of the function may be canceled if the accelerator pedal is
depressed strongly or the steering wheel is turned and the system deter-
mines that the driver is taking evasive action.
● If the brake pedal is being depressed, the system may determine that the
driver is taking evasive action and possibly delay the operation timing of
the pre-collision braking function.

◆Vehicle sway warning function
When the vehicle is swaying or
appears as if it may depart from
its lane multiple times, the
warning buzzer sounds and a
message is displayed on the
multi-information display to alert
the driver.
WARNING
■ Before using LDA system
Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. The LDA system does not auto-
matically 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 surround-
ing conditions and operating the steering wheel to correct 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 driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■ To avoid operating LDA system by mistake
When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system off.

Press the Stop & Start cancel
switch to disable the Stop & Start
system.
The Stop & Start cancel indicator
will come on.
Pressing the switch again will
enable the Stop & Start system and
the Stop & Start cancel indicator
will turn off.
■Automatic reactivation of the Stop & Start system
Even if the Stop & Start system is disabled by the Stop & Start can-
cel switch, it will be automatically re-enabled once the engine
switch is turned to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without smart
entry & start system) or off (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem), and then the engine is started.
■If the Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed while the vehicle is
stopped
● When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, pressing
the Stop & Start cancel switch will restart the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned off), the engine will not be stopped.
● With the Stop & Start system disabled, pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch will re-enable the system but not stop the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned on), the engine will be stopped.
If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the vehicle is
on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent rolling
backwards until the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
● This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep incline.
● Sound may be generated by the brakes, but this is not a malfunc-
tion.
● The brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur,
but these are not malfunctions.

Driving assist systems
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if the
brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface
◆Brake assist (if equipped)
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning on
slippery road surfaces
◆TRC (Traction Control) for Pre Runner and H2 position on 4WD
models (if equipped)
Helps to maintain drive power and pr event the drive wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads
◆A-TRC (Active Traction Control) for H4 and L4 position on 4WD
models (if equipped)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the four wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads
◆Hill-start assist control (if equipped)
Helps to reduce the backward movement of the vehicle when starting on
an uphill
To keep driving safety and performance, the following systems
operate automatically in response to various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and
should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehi-
cle.

■ Operating conditions of emergency brake signal
When the following three conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will
operate:
● The emergency flashers are off.
● Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph).
● The brake pedal is depressed in a manner that cause the system to judge
from the vehicle deceleration that this is a sudden braking operation.
■ Automatic system cancelation of emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will turn off in any of the following situations:
● The emergency flashers are turned on.
● The brake pedal is released.
● The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that is not a sudden brak-
ing operation.
WARNING
■ The ABS does not operate effectively when
● The limits of tire gripping performance have been exceeded (such as
excessively worn tires on a snow covered road).
● The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on wet or slick roads.
■ Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of nor-
mal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten t he 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 potholes or uneven surfaces

WARNING
■TRC/A-TRC/VSC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRC/A-TRC/VSC system is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be
lost.
■ Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
● Do not overly rely on the hill-start assist control. The hill-start assist control
may not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
● Unlike the parking brake, the hill-start assist control is not intended to hold
the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use
the hill-start assist control to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so
may lead to an accident.
■ When the TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control is activated
The slip indicator flashes. Always drive carefully.
Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the
indicator flashes.
■ When the TRC/A-TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control 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 driving
force, do not turn the TRC/A-TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control 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 pressure level.
The ABS, TRC, A-TRC, VSC, Trailer Sway Control, hill-start assist control
and downhill assist control 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 suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect
the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.
