that these systems are not avail-
able to help protect you in an acci-
dent, which could result in death
or serious injury. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately if this occurs.

3325-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
●Set the speed appropriately
according to the speed limit,
traffic flow, road conditions,
weather conditions, etc. The
driver is responsible for confirm-
ing the set speed.
●Even if the system is operating
correctly, the condition of a pre-
ceding vehicle as recognized by
the driver and detected by the
system may differ. Therefore, it
is necessary for the driver to
pay attention, assess risks, and
ensure safety. Over-reliance on
this system to drive the vehicle
safely may lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious
injury.
■Precautions for the driving
assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to
the assistance provided by the
system. Over-reliance on this sys-
tem may lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Details of support provided for
the driver’s vision
The dynamic radar cruise control
is only intended to help the driver
in determining the distance
between the driver’s own vehicle
and a designated preceding vehi-
cle. It is not a system which allows
for careless or i nattentive driving,
and is not a system which assists
in poor visibility conditions.
The driver must pay attention to
their surroundings, even when the
vehicle stops.
●Details of support provided for
the driver’s judgement
The dynamic radar cruise control
determines whether the distance
between the driver’s own vehicle
and a designated preceding vehi-
cle is within a set range. It is not
capable of making any other type
of judgement. Therefore, it is
absolutely necessary for the
driver to remain vigilant and to
determine whether or not there is
a possibility of danger.
●Details of support provided for
the driver’s operation
The dynamic radar cruise control
does not include functions which
will prevent or avoid collisions
with vehicles ahead of your vehi-
cle. Therefore, if there is ever any
possibility of danger, the driver
must take immediate and direct
control of the vehicle and act
appropriately in order to ensure
safety.
■Situations in which the
dynamic radar cruise control
should not be used
Do not use the dynamic radar
cruise control in the following situ-
ations. As the system will not be
able to provide appropriate con-
trol, using it may lead to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Roads where there are pedes-
trians, cyclists, etc.
●When driving on a highway or
expressway entrance or exit
●When the approach warning
sounds frequently
●Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly:
P.289
●Situations in which the lane may
not be detected: P.291
Page 366 of 680

3665-5. Using the driving support systems
■Objects which the system may
not properly detect
The shape of the object may pre-
vent the sensor from detecting it.
Pay particular attention to the fol-
lowing objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials
that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections
projecting outwards in the direc-
tion of your vehicle
People may not be detected if they
are wearing certain types of cloth-
ing.
■Situations in which the system
may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the
surrounding environment may affect
the ability of a sensor to correctly
detect objects. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed
below.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or
ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the
sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the
area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a
sensor is frozen the sensor dis-
play may be displayed abnor-
mally, or objects, such as a wall,
may not be detected.
●When a sensor or the area around
a sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on
an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●When vehicle horns, vehicle
detectors, motorcycle engines, air
brakes of large vehicles, the clear-
ance sonar of other vehicles or
other devices which produce ultra-
sonic waves are near the vehicle.
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●If objects draw too close to the
sensor.
●When a pedestrian is wearing
clothing that does not reflect ultra-
sonic waves (ex. skirts with gath-
ers or frills).
●When objects that are not perpen-
dicular to the ground, not perpen-
dicular to the vehicle traveling
direction, uneven, or waving are in
the detection range.
●When strong winds are blowing.
●When driving in inclement weather
such as fog, snow or a sandstorm.
●When an object that cannot be
detected is between the vehicle
and a detected object.
●If an object such as a vehicle,
motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian
cuts in front of the vehicle or runs
out from the side of the vehicle.
●If the orientation of a sensor has
been changed due to a collision or
other impact.
●When equipment such as a towing
eyelet, transport hook, bumper
protector, bumper trim, bicycle
carrier or snow-removal device
(snow plow) is installed near the
sensor.
●If the front of the vehicle is raised
or lowered due to the carried load.
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a
stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or
is malfunctioning.
●When tire chains, a compact
spare tire or an emergency tire
puncture repair kit are used.

collision with anot her vehicle.
When backing up, make sure to
look directly or use the mirrors
to check the safety of the area
around your vehicle, especially
behind the vehicle.
●When the ambient temperature
is extremely low, the screen
may appear dark or the dis-
played image may become
unclear. Also, as moving
objects may appear distorted or
may not be able to be seen on
the screen, make sure to
directly check the safety of the
area around your vehicle.
●In the following situations, while
the vehicle is stopped and held
by Advanced Park, it may be
canceled and the vehicle may
start moving. Immediately
depress the brake pedal. Fail-
ure to do so may lead to an
accident.
• When the driver’s door is opened
• When operations instructed by the system are not performed
within a certain amount of time
• When the brake pedal is depressed and the vehicle is
stopped for a certain amount of
time
• When the system malfunctions
●As the steering wheel will turn
while this system is operating,
pay attention to the following.
• Be careful so that a necktie, scarf, or arm does not get
caught. Keep your upper body
away from the steering wheel.
Also, keep children away from

system generates braking force
corresponding to the brake
operation
■ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem)
Helps to prevent wheel lock
when the brakes are applied
suddenly, or if the brakes are
applied while driving on a slip-
pery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake
pedal is depressed when the
system detects a panic stop sit-
uation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Con-
trol)
Helps the driver to control skid-
ding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road sur-
faces.
■Enhanced VSC (Enhanced
Vehicle Stability Control)
Provides cooperative control of
the ABS, TRAC, VSC and EPS.
Helps to maintain directional
stability when swerving on slip-
pery road surfaces by con-
trolling steering performance.
■TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power
and prevent the drive wheels
from spinning when starting the
vehicle or accelerating on slip-
pery roads
■Active Cornering Assist
(ACA)
Helps to prevent the vehicle
from drifting to the outer side by
performing inner wheel brake
control when attempting to
accelerate while turning
