Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
PCS w/PD is designed to provide alert, mitigation, and/or avoidance
support in certain conditions, when the system detects a potential colli\
sion
with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
Laser sensors are designed to work with the camera sensor to help
recognize a preceding pedestrian, and provide an alert, mitigation and/o\
r
avoidance support in certain conditions.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)LDA is designed to provide notification when the system detects an
unintended lane departure.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)
AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the
tail lights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams and low \
beams as appropriate.

Sensors
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ C (TSS-C) is a set of active safety technologies designed to
help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic situa\
tions, in certain
conditions. TSS-C is designed to help support the driver’s awareness,\
decision making
and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving experience.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for operation, setting adjustments, limit\
ations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautio\
ns. For
more information, please go to http://www.toyota.com/safety-sense.
TSS-C combines an in-vehicle camera and lasers mounted in front of the i\
nside rear
view mirror. These sensors support the driver assist systems.

25
The Pre-Collision System uses laser sensors and camera sensor to help de\
tect 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 system m\
ay 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 whi\
le driving on
a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve, a vehicle may no\
t be detected
by the laser and camera sensors, preventing the system 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 the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS \
w/PD
operation, settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before att\
empting 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-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 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.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Note: PCS is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition O\
n.
The system can be disabled/enabled and the alert timing of the system ca\
n be
changed. (Alert timing only, brake operation remains the same).
Monocular camera sensor
Lasers
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-C package ma\
y also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety\
Sense™ C,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and lasers to help detect a pedestrian in \
front of your
vehicle in certain conditions. The system of PCS detects a potential ped\
estrian based
on size, profile, and motion of the detected pedestrian. However, a pede\
strian may
not be detected depending on the conditions, including the surrounding b\
rightness
and the motion, posture and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, \
preventing the
system from operating or engaging. Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional
information.
PEDESTRIAN DETECTION FUNCTION
CHANGING PCS ALERT TIMING
Each time the PCS switch is pressed, the response to the PCS alert timin\
g changes.

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
Star Safety System™
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.
Your vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety System
TM, which combines Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Brake-force\
Distribution
(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.
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.
VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine p\
ower and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle i\
s traveling.
When it senses that the front or rear wheels begin to lose traction, VSC\
reduces
engine power and applies braking to selected wheels. This helps restore \
traction
and vehicle control.
49125b_MY19_Prius_c_QRG_V2_ML_0713.indd 327/20/18 8:33 PM

33
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.
Floor mat installation
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.
Always align the Δ marks
