OVERVIEW

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
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. Abrupt stops can cause a vehi\
cle 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.
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
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC),

Trailer sway may occur when towing a trailer due to strong crosswinds, u\
neven and/
or winding road conditions or the driver’s steering input.
Trailer Sway Control uses sensors to detect trailer sway and then simult\
aneously
and automatically helps to suppress the swaying motion of the trailer by\
integrating
brake and engine torque control to reduce speed and to help quickly cont\
rol the
swaying motion of the trailer.

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.
