Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P)
Sensors
TSS-P combines an in-vehicle camera mounted in front of the inside rear view mirror
and a millimeter-wave radar mounted in the front grill. These sensors support the
driver assist systems.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P) is a set of active safety technologies designed
to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic situations, in
certain conditions. TSS-P 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, limitations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautions. For
more information, please go to http://www.toyota.com/safety-sense
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist function (LDA w/SA) LDA w/SA is designed to provide notification when the system detects an unintended lane departure.
The Steering Assist function is designed to provide small corrective steering inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its lane.
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.
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection function (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 collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
Advanced millimeter-wave radar sensor system is designed
to work with the camera sensor to help recognize a preceding
pedestrian, and provide an alert, mitigation and/or avoidance
support in certain conditions.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed.

(1) Press “” switches and select from the Multi-Information Display (MID).
(2) Press “” switches and select the setting function from the MID and then
press “”. The setting screen is displayed.
(3) Select and then press “.” The Pre-Collision System will be disabled. You
can press “” to go back to the menu.
Note: The system is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition
On.
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.

Note: Operation of the LDA system and setting adjustments continues in the
same condition regardless of Ignition cycle until changed by the driver or the
system is reset.
ADJUSTING LDA ALERT SENSITIVITY
THE SWAY WARNING SYSTEM (SWS) FUNCTION
SWS is a function of LDA and is designed to detect swaying based on the vehicle
location in the lane and the driver’s steering wheel operation. To help prevent
swaying, the system alerts the driver using a buzzer sound and a warning displays
in the MID.
Continuous lane deviations from
swaying.
Gentle swaying from driver’s
inattentiveness.
Acute steering wheel operation after the
number of operations decrease due to driver’s
inattentiveness.
DISABLING THE STEERING ASSIST FUNCTION
The driver can adjust the sensitivity of the LDA (warning) function from the
Multi-Information Display (MID) customization screen.
High - Is designed to warn approximately before the front tire crosses the
lane marker.
Normal - Is designed to warn approximately when the front tire crosses
the lane marker.

Star Safety System™
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)
TRACTION CONTROL (TRAC)
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
BRAKE ASSIST (BA)
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle is 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.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control.
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 quickly than
just the driver alone can.
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, or uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels starts 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.
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehicle to tilt
forward, reducing the braking power of the rear wheels. EBD responds to sudden
stops by redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of all four
wheels.
All new Toyota vehicles come standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, which
combines Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Braking
System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA) and
Smart Stop Technology (SST).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
