Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (BSM w/RCTA) (if equipped)
The Blind Spot Monitor is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in making the decision when to
change lanes)
• The Rear Cross Traffic Alert function (assists the driver when backing up)
The system is designed to use radar sensors to detect vehicles traveling in the
Prius’s blind spot. If a vehicle is detected, the driver will be alerted via the outside
rear view side mirror indicators.
Note: Use in the Multi-Information Display (MID) to change settings. The
system will continue in the last state it was in (ON or OFF) when the engine is
started again.

FEATURES & OPERATIONS
The Intelligent Parking Assist (IPA) system automatically operates the steering
wheel to provide support when backing into an area near a target parking spot,
and when departing from a parallel parking spot. (Changing the shift position
and speed adjustment when moving forward or backing up are not performed
automatically.)
While the IPA is operating, if the system detects an obstacle that could result in a
collision, the emergency brakes operate, regardless of whether the Parking Support
Brake function is on or off.
* Refer to section S-APGS (Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System) in the
Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details.

OVERVIEW
FEATURES & OPERATIONS
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help detect a vehicle or pedestrian in front of your vehicle.
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. This system will not prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. 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 system 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 sandstorm or while driving on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve, a vehicle or pedestrian may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventing the system from operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situations in which the system may not operate properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS w/PD
operation, settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to
use it.
Pre-Collision WarningWhen 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 (MID) to urge the driver to take evasive action.
Pre-Collision Brake AssistIf the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may provide additional 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 BrakingIf the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that 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 help the driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.

Millimeterwave radar
As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an alert and then automatic braking if needed.
Under certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package may also help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle using the in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter wave radar. 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 depending on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture, size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the system from operating or engaging.

DISABLING PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM (PCS)
LDA in TSS-P uses an in-vehicle camera designed to detect visible white and yellow
lane markers in front of the vehicle and the vehicle’s position on the road. If the
system determines that the vehicle is starting to unintentionally deviate from its lane,
the system alerts the driver with an audio and visual alert. When the alerts occur, the
driver must check the surrounding road situation and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to the center part of their lane.
LDA is designed to function at speeds of approximately 32 MPH or higher on
relatively straight roadways.
In addition to the alert function, LDA w/SA also features a steering assist
function. When enabled, if the system determines that the vehicle is on a path to
unintentionally depart from its lane, the system may provide small corrective steering
inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its
lane.
(1) Press “” switches and select from the Multi-Information Display (MID).
(2) Press “” switches and select the setting function from the MID and then
