The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD) is desig\
ned to
help detect a vehicle or a pedestrian in certain situations. Using a com\
bination of
a camera and radar, PCS w/ PD can provide an audio/visual alert to warn \
you of
a possible collision under certain circumstances. If you don’t react,\
the system is
designed to automatically brake.
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 grille-mounted radar and forwar\
d-facing
camera, preventing the system from operating or engaging properly.
See Toyota.com/safety-sense for more information.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situation\
s in which the
system operation may be limited.
Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P)
Sensors
TSS-P combines a forward-facing camera mounted in front of the inside re\
ar view
mirror and a grille-mounted radar mounted in the front grille. These sen\
sors 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 si\
tuations, in
certain conditions. TSS-P is designed to help support the driver’s aw\
areness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving exp\
erience.
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.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the ta\
il
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 grille-mounted radar system is designed to work with
the forward-facing camera 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 vehi\
cle
when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)
LDA is designed to provide notification when the system detects an
unintended lane departure.
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.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
ADJUSTING DISTANCE
To change the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance

Push the “
” button to
cycle 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) (2) (3)
(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.
Preceding
vehicle mark LONG
(default setting) MIDDLE SHORT
SETTING CONSTANT SPEED (CRUISE) CONTROL
SWITCHING TO CONSTANT SPEED (CRUISE) CONTROL MODE
Note: When your vehicle is too close to a vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is not possible, the display will flash and the
buzzer will sound to alert the driver. An example of this would be if another driver
cuts in front of you while you are following a vehicle. Depress the brake pedal to
ensure an appropriate vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
If you are already using DRCC “,” push button again to turn the system off
first, then push and hold button for at least 1.5 seconds to switch.
Note: When the engine is turned off, it will automatically default to DRCC.
(3) Acceleration when there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving
slower than the set speed The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.
DRCC ADJUSTING DISTANCE (CONTINUED)
To adjust speed or cancel, see steps (2) and (3) of ADJUSTING SET SPEED on
page 37.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on DRCC\
operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it.
