TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™

Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ P


Toyota Safety Sense™ (TSS) P is a suite of safety and driver assistance
technologies designed to support driver awareness, decision making, and vehicle
operation. TSS includes features such as Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian
Detection, Lane Departure Alert, and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for details including system operation, limitations,
and setting adjustments.
For more information, please visit www.toyota.com/safety-sense.

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 determines there is
potential for a collision with a detected object.
The advanced grille-mounted radar system is designed to work with
the forward-facing camera to help recognize a preceding vehicle or
pedestrian in certain conditions.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)
LDA is designed to provide notification when the system detects an
unintended lane departure.

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.

Automatic High Beams (AHB)


AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the
taillights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams and low
beams as appropriate.

Sensors
TSS-P combines a forward-facing camera mounted in front of the inside rear view
mirror and a grille-mounted radar mounted in the front grille. These sensors support
the driving assist systems.

Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian
Detection (PCS w/PD)

OVERVIEW
The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD) is designed to
help detect a vehicle or a pedestrian in certain situations. Using a combination of

FEATURES & OPERATIONS


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 performance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This system will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. 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 system 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 sandstorm 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, preventing the
system from operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota “Owner’s Manual” for a list of additional situations in which the

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE


system operation may be limited.

Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, a
buzzer will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the Multi-Information
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 additional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and may apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that the
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES

possibility of a frontal collision with a preceding vehicle is extremely high, the


system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to help the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.
See www.toyota.com/safety-sense for more information.

33
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
PCS PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
Under certain conditions, the PCS included with TSS-P may also help to detect
a pedestrian in front of your vehicle using the forward-facing camera and front
grille-mounted radar. The forward-facing camera of PCS detects a potential
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 potential
detected pedestrian, preventing the system from operating or engaging.

As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an

Refer to the “Owner’s Manual” for more details and important information on
limitations to these systems.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)


Toyota’s Anti-lock Brake System detects 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

FEATURES & OPERATIONS


traction that current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional
control.

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 quickly 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 four wheels.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE


SMART STOP TECHNOLOGY (SST)
Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces engine power when the accelerator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
SST engages when the accelerator is depressed first and the brakes are applied
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 accelerator pedal,
allowing vehicles to start on a steep hill and safely accelerate without rolling
backward.

VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)


VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES

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.

47
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
TRACTION CONTROL (TRAC)
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.

Floor mat installation


There are two types of Toyota floor mats: carpeted and all-weather. Each vehicle
has model-specific floor mats. Installation is easy.
To keep your floor mat properly positioned, follow these steps:
• Only use Toyota floor mats designed for your specific model.
• Only use one floor mat at a time, using the equipped fasteners to keep the mat in
