The speed is immediately shown on the instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
If needed (when overtaking, for example), it is possible to exceed the programmed speed by pressing the accelerator pedal.Cruise control is temporarily overridden and the programmed speed setting flashes.To return to the programmed speed, simply release the accelerator pedal.Once the vehicle has returned to the programmed speed, cruise control takes over again and the programmed speed setting stops flashing.
WARNI NG
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control system cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.You may have to brake to control the speed of your vehicle. In this case, the cruise control is automatically paused.To activate the system again, with the vehicle speed above 40 km/h (25 mph), press button 4.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0” position: the cruise control information disappears from the screen.
Malfunction

Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then fixed) in the event of a cruise control system malfunction.Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Adaptive Cruise Control
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to Cruise control - particular recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the speed of your vehicle at a value which you set (speed setting), while keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in front (target vehicle), and which has been set beforehand by the driver. The system controls the vehicle's acceleration and deceleration automatically using only engine braking (as if the driver had pressed the "-" minus button).

To do this, it uses a radar located in the front bumper.
WARNI NG
Primarily designed for driving on main roads and motorways, this system only works with
moving vehicles driving in the same direction as your vehicle.

182
NOTIC E
If the driver operates a direction indicator to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise control allows the vehicle to temporarily approach the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking manoeuvre, without ever exceeding the speed setting.
WARNI NG
Some vehicles present on the road may not be properly seen or may be misinterpreted by the radar (e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor assessment of distance and lead to the vehicle accelerating or braking inappropriately.

Messages and alerts
NOTIC E
The display of these messages or alerts is not sequential.
“Cruise control paused” or “Cruise control suspended” following a brief acceleration by the driver.

184
“Cruise control active”, no vehicle detected.“Cruise control active”, vehicle detected.
“Cruise control active and speed adjusted”, vehicle detected too close or at a slower speed.“Cruise control active and speed adjusted”, automatic deactivation imminent following a cruise control limit being reached.“Cruise control paused”, automatic deactivation following speed limit adjustment being exceeded and no reaction from the driver.
Operating limits
The regulation range is limited to a maximum difference of 19 mph (30 km/h) between the cruise speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front.Above this, the system pauses itself if the safety distance becomes too short.
The adaptive cruise control uses only engine braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing the accelerator pedal.The system is paused automatically:– if the vehicle in front slows down too much or too suddenly, and the driver does not brake,– if a vehicle comes between your vehicle and the vehicle in front,
– if the system does not slow the vehicle enough to continue to maintain a safe distance, for example when descending a steep hill.Cases of non-detection by the radar:– Stationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown, etc.).– Vehicles driving in the opposite direction.When the driver must suspend the cruise control system:

– When following a narrow vehicle.

– Vehicles not running in the middle of the lane.

– Vehicles entering a corner.– Vehicles changing lane at the last moment.
Reactivate cruise control when conditions permit.Cases where the driver is urged to take back control immediately:– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your vehicle and the one in front.– Excessively sharp deceleration of the vehicle in front of you.
NOTIC E
The adaptive cruise control operates by day and night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
WARNI NG
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine braking.The regulation range is limited: there will no longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too great.
WARNI NG
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically deactivated.

Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction with the adaptive cruise control, you will be alerted by an audible signal and the display of the message "Driving aid functions fault".Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Active Safety Brake with
Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


This system:– warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of collision with the vehicle in front.– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a collision or limit its severity.This system is comprised of three functions:– Collision Risk Alert,
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance (iEBA).– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency braking).

The vehicle has a camera located at the top of the windscreen and, depending on version, a radar located in the front bumper.
W ARNI NG
This system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system is designed to assist the driver and improve road safety.It is the driver's responsibility to continuously monitor traffic conditions in accordance with applicable driving regulations.
NOTIC E
As soon as the system detects a potential obstacle, it prepares the braking circuit in case automatic braking is needed. This may cause a slight noise and a slight sensation of deceleration.
Operating conditions and
limits
Vehicle moving forward.VSC system operational.Seat belts fastened for all passengers.Stabilised speed on roads with few bends.In the following cases, deactivating the system via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:– Towing a trailer.– Carrying long objects on roof bars or roof rack.– Vehicle with snow chains fitted.– Before using an automatic car wash, with the engine running.
– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop.– Towed vehicle, engine running.– Damaged front bumper.– Following an impact to the windscreen close to the detection camera.
WARNI NG
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake lamps are not in perfect working order.

186
WARNI NG
It is possible that warnings are not given, are given too late or seem unjustified.The driver must always stay in control of the vehicle and be prepared to react at any time to avoid an accident.
WARNI NG
Following an impact, the system is automatically deactivated.Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic lane.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity with which the function warns of the risk of collision.The threshold is set via the vehicle configuration menu with the audio system or touch screen.► Select one of the three pre-defined thresholds: "Far", "Normal" or "Near".
The last threshold selected is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision detected by the system and the alert trigger threshold chosen by the driver, several different levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.The system takes account of the vehicle dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one in front, the environmental conditions and the operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals, steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the most relevant moment.Level 1 (orange): visual alert only, warning that the vehicle in front is very close.The message "Vehicle Near" is displayed.Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert, warning that a collision is imminent.The message "Brake!" is displayed.
NOTIC E
Where the speed of your vehicle is too high approaching another vehicle, the first level of alert may not be displayed: the level 2 alert may be displayed directly.Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed when there is a stationary obstacle or when the "Near" trigger threshold has been selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid a collision, this system will provide additional braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.This assistance will only be provided if the driver presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called automatic emergency braking, intervenes following the alerts if the driver does not react quickly enough and does not operate the vehicle's brakes.It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a collision where the driver fails to react.

187
Driving

Operation
The system operates subject to the following conditions:– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph (60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist is detected.– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and 53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle is detected.This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.With an automatic gearbox, in the event of automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving off again.With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
NOTIC E
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by firmly turning the steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the accelerator pedal.
NOTIC E
Operation of the function may be felt by slight vibration in the brake pedal.If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 seconds.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated at every engine start.It is set via the vehicle configuration menu.Deactivation of the system is signalled by the illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal.
Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.If these warning lamps come on after the engine has been switched off and then restarted, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer to have the system checked.
These warning lamps light up on the instrument panel to indicate that the driver's and/or front passenger's seat belt is not fastened (depending on version).
Lane departure warning
system
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


System that uses a camera to recognise continuous or broken lines on traffic lanes and triggers an alert if the vehicle wanders off line. If the direction indicator is not used at speeds above 50 mph (80 km/h) and there is a risk of one of these lines on the road surface being crossed, the system triggers the alert.This system is particularly useful on motorways and main roads.
Detection - Alert
You are alerted by the flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal.

188
NOTIC E
No warning is transmitted while the direction indicator is active and for approximately 20 seconds after the direction indicator is switched off.

NOTIC E
Detection may be impeded:– If the markings on the ground are worn and not clearly contrasted against the road surface.– If the windscreen is dirty.– In certain extreme weather conditions: fog, heavy rain, snow, shade, bright sunlight or direct exposure to the sun (e.g. low sun, leaving a tunnel).
Distraction detection
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
Depending on version, the function consists of either the "Coffee Break Alert" system alone or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert"
system.
WARNI NG
These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent the driver from falling asleep at the wheel. It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling tired.Take a break in case of feeling tired or at least every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
This function is set via the vehicle configuration menu.The state of the system is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Coffee Break Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects that the driver has not taken a

189
Driving
6
break after two hours of driving at a speed above 65 km/h (40 mph).This alert is issued via the display of a message encouraging you to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:– engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes,– the ignition has been switched off for a few minutes,– the driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is opened.
NOTIC E
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 65 km/h (40 mph), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 65 km/h (40 mph).
Driver Attention Warning
Depending on version, the "Coffee Break Alert" system is combined with the "Driver Attention Warning" system.

Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen, the system assesses the driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by identifying variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings.This system is particularly suited to fast roads (speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the “Take care!” message, accompanied by an audible signal.After three first-level alerts, the system triggers a further alert with the message "Dangerous driving: take a break", accompanied by a more pronounced audible signal.
NOTIC E
In certain driving conditions (poor road surface or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks),– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected),– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.

190
Blind Spot Monitoring
System
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


This system includes sensors, placed on the sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of the potentially dangerous presence of another vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot areas of their vehicle (areas hidden from the
driver's field of vision).

The warning is given by a fixed warning lamp that appears in the door mirror on the side in question:– immediately, when being overtaken;– after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
Operation
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers monitor the blind spots.The alert is given by an orange warning lamp coming on in the relevant door mirror, as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected.The following conditions must be met for this:– all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent lanes,– the speed of your vehicle must be between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),– you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),– a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 16 mph (25 km/h),– the traffic is flowing normally,
– overtaking a vehicle over a certain period of time where the vehicle being overtaken remains in the blind spot,– you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,– your vehicle is not towing a trailer, a caravan, etc.


No alert will be given in the following situations:
– in the presence of non-moving objects (parked vehicles, safety barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.),
