*1: This light illuminates on the multi-
information display with a message.
*2: Depending on the operating condi-
tion, the color and illuminating/flash-
ing state of the light change.
*3: The light comes on when the system
is turned off.
*4: Toyota parking assist-sensor OFF
indicator turns on when the power
switch is turned to ON while the
Toyota parking assist-sensor func-
tion is on. It will turn off after a few
seconds.
*5: These lights turn on when the power
switch is turned to ON to indicate
that a system check is being per-
formed. They will turn off after the
hybrid system is on, or after a few
seconds. There may be a malfunc-
tion in a system if the lights do not
turn on, or turn off. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

■Operational conditions
The pre-collision system is enabled and the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with a detected object is high.Each function is operational at the following speed
●Pre-collision warning
●Pre-collision brake assist
●Pre-collision braking
The system may not operate in the following situations:
●If a 12-volt battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected and then the vehicle has not been driven for a certain amount of time
●If the shift lever is in R
●When the VSC OFF indicator is illuminated (only the pre-collision warning function will be operational)
■Object detection function
The system detects objects based on
their size, profile, motion, etc. However, an object may not be detected depend-
ing on the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture, and angle of the
detected object, preventing the system from operating properly. ( P.360)

5 5-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
• If a vehicle ahead has extremely high
ground clearance
• If a vehicle ahead is carrying a load
which protrudes past its rear bumper
• If a vehicle ahead is irregularly
shaped, such as a tractor or side car
• If a vehicle ahead is a child sized bicy-
cle, a bicycle that is carrying a large
load, a bicycle ridden by more than
one person, or a uniquely shaped
bicycle (bicycle with a child seat, tan-
dem bicycle, etc.)
• If a pedestrian/or the riding height of a
bicyclist ahead is shorter than approx-
imately 1 m (3.2 ft.) or taller than
approximately 2 m (6.5 ft.)
• If a pedestrian/bicyclist is wearing
oversized clothing (a rain coat, long
skirt, etc.), making their silhouette
obscure
• If a pedestrian is bending forward or
squatting or bicyclist is bending for-
ward
• If a pedestrian/bicyclist is moving fast
• If a pedestrian is pushing a stroller,
wheelchair, bicycle or other vehicle
• When driving in inclement weather
such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a
sandstorm
• When driving through steam or smoke
• When the surrounding area is dim,
such as at dawn or dusk, or while at
night or in a tunnel, making a detect-
able object appear to be nearly the same color as its surroundings
• When driving in a place where the sur-
rounding brightness changes sud-
denly, such as at the entrance or exit
of a tunnel
• After the hybrid system has started
the vehicle has not been driven for a
certain amount of time
• While making a left/right turn and for a
few seconds after making a left/right
turn
• While driving on a curve and for a few
seconds after driving on a curve
• If your vehicle is skidding
• If the front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered
• If the wheels are misaligned
• If a wiper blade is blocking the front
camera
• The vehicle is being driven at
extremely high speeds
• When driving on a hill
• If the radar sensor or front camera is
misaligned
●In some situations such as the follow-
ing, sufficient braking force may not
be obtained, preventing the system
from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate
to their full extent, such as when the
brake parts are extremely cold,
extremely hot, or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly main-
tained (brakes or tires are excessively
worn, improper tire inflation pressure,
etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a
gravel road or other slippery surface
■If VSC is disabled
●If VSC is disabled (P.439), the pre-
collision brake assist and pre-collision
braking functions are also disabled.

3625-5. Using the driving support systems
●The PCS warning light will turn on and
“VSC Turned OFF Pre-Collision Brake
System Unavailable” will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
*: If equipped
LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist)
*
When driving on highways and
freeways with white (yellow)
lane lines, this function alerts
the driver when the vehicle
might depart from its lane or
course
* and provides assis-
tance by operating the steering
wheel to keep the vehicle in its
lane or course
*. Furthermore,
the system provides steering
assistance when dynamic
radar cruise control with full-
speed range is operating to
keep the vehicle in its lane.
The LTA system recognizes
white (yellow) lane lines or a
course
* using the front cam-
era. Additionally, it detects pre-
ceding vehicles using the front
camera and radar.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass,
soil, or a curb

Inside of displayed lines is white
Indicates that the system is recognizing
white (yellow) lines or a course
*. When
the vehicle departs from its lane, the
white line displayed on the side the
vehicle departs from flashes orange.
Inside of displayed lines is black
Indicates that the system is not able to
recognize white (yellow) lines or a
course
* or is temporarily canceled.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■Operation conditions of each func-
tion

vehicle speed is less than approxi-
mately 50 km/h (32 mph) when the
lane centering function is operating.
*2: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
●Steering assist function
This function operates when all of the

steering force level suitable for chang-
ing lanes.
• ABS, VSC, TRC and PCS are not
operating.
• TRC or VSC is not turned off.
• Hands off steering wheel warning is
not displayed. (P.370)
●Vehicle sway warning function

Center” in the screen of the multi-
information display are set to “ON”.
(P.179)
• This function recognizes white (yel-
low) lane lines or the position of a pre-
ceding vehicle (except when the
preceding vehicle is small, such as a
motorcycle).
• The dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is operating in vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance control mode.

■Temporary cancelation of functions
●When operation conditions are no lon-
ger met, a function may be temporar-
ily canceled. However, when the
operation conditions are met again,
operation of the function is automati-
cally restored. (P.369)
●If the operation conditions (P.369)
are no longer met while the lane cen-
tering function is operating, the steer-
ing wheel may vibrate and the buzzer
may sound to indicate that the func-
tion has been temporarily canceled.
However, if the “Alert” customization
setting is set to “Steering wheel vibra-
tion”, the system will notify the driver
by vibrating the steering wheel instead
of sounding the buzzer.
■Steering assist function/lane cen-
tering function
●Depending on the vehicle speed, lane
departure situation, road conditions,
etc., the driver may not feel the func-
tion is operating or the function may
not operate at all.
●The steering control of the function is
overridden by the driver’s steering
wheel operation.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the steering assist function.
■Lane departure alert function
●The warning buzzer may be difficult to
hear due to external noise, audio play-
back, etc. Also, it may be difficult to
feel steering wheel vibrations due to
the road conditions, etc.
●If the edge of the course* is not clear
or straight, the lane departure alert
function may not operate.
●Vehicles with BSM: It may not be pos-
sible for the system to determine if
there is a danger of a collision with a
vehicle in an adjacent lane.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the lane departure alert function.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■Hands off steering wheel warning
In the following situations, a warning
message urging the driver to hold the
steering wheel and the symbol shown in
the illustration are displayed on the
multi-information display to warn the
