Intuitive parking assist
The parking assist sonar system operates when the vehicle approaches an \
obstacle. The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when parall\
el parking
or maneuvering into a garage is measured by sensors and communicated via\
the
Multi-Information Display (MID) and audible beeps.
When the sensor detects an obstacle, the direction of and the approximat\
e distance
to the obstacle are displayed on the MID display by illuminating continu\
ously (far)
or blinking (near), and beeping sounds will switch from intermittent t\
o continuous as
you approach and get closer to a detected obstacle. When the sensors det\
ect two
or more obstacles, the audible alerts will respond to the nearest zone. \
Always check the surrounding area when using this system.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details.

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.
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
collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
The 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.

OVERVIEW
FEATURES & OPERATIONS
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help d\
etect 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 syste\
m 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 san\
dstorm 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, preventi\
ng the
system from operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situation\
s 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-I\
nformation
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 m\
ay apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is dep\
ressed.
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
system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to he\
lp the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.
Suspension Control
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision i\
s high, the
Adaptive Variable Suspension System will control the damping force of th\
e shock
absorbers to help maintain an appropriate vehicle posture.

As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to f\
irst provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and inf\
ormation.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-v\
ehicle camera
and front grille-mounted radar. The in-vehicle camera of PCS detects a p\
otential
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 p\
otential
detected pedestrian, preventing the system from operating or engaging.

through the settings, which will
change progressively.
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of a preceding v\
ehicle
up to approximately 328 ft (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehic\
le-to-vehicle
following distance and operates to maintain a preset following distance \
from the
vehicle ahead. These distances vary based on vehicle speed.

(1) Constant speed cruising when there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-\
to-
vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle dis\
tance
control.
(2) Deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising when a preceding vehicle
driving slower than the set speed appears When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automaticall\
y
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the brake lights will come on\
at this
time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle a\
head
in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. \
A warning
tone warns you when the system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent\
your
vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill
slopes.

Star Safety System™
Your vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, 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.
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.
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.
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
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.

49
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.
