FEATURES/OPERATIONS
BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)(if equipped)
The Blind Spot Monitor is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in decision-making when
changing lanes)
• The Rear Cross Traffic Alert function (assists the driver when backing up)
The Blind Spot Monitor function uses radar sensors to detect vehicles that are
traveling in an adjacent lane in the area that is not reflected in the outside rear
view mirror (the blind spot), and advises the driver of the vehicles existence via
the outside rear view mirror indicator.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting
to use it.
System ON/OFF Rear Cross Traffic Alert buzzer
Rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system displays an image of the view from the bumper
of the rear area of the vehicle. The camera for the rear view monitor system is
located above the license plate.
To adjust the image on the rear view monitor screen, press the “SETUP” button
and select “Display” on the “Setup” screen. Select “Camera” to adjust the
screen contrast and brightness.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system.

If belt is fully extended, then retracted even slightly, it cannot be re-extended
beyond that point, unless fully retracted again. This feature is used to help hold
child restraint systems securely.
To find more information about seat belts, and how to install a child restraint
system, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
When the radar sensor detects possibility of a frontal collision, brakes are
automatically engaged to lessen impact as well as vehicle damage. The alert
timing for the pre-collision system can be changed or turned on/off, as necessary,
by operating the switch.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting
to use it.
The Lane Departure Alert recognizes the visible lane markers using a camera as a
sensor and alerts the driver with beeping and flashing indicators when the vehicle
deviates from its lane. Press the LDA switch to activate the system.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting
to use it.

30 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 floor mats designed for your specific model.
•

Use

only one floor mat at a time, using the retaining hooks to keep the mat in
place.
•

Install

floor mats right side up.

Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces driving torque when the accelerator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
Smart Stop Technology (SST)Star Safety SystemTM
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
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.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by “pulsing” brake pressure to each
wheel. This limits brake lockup and helps provide directional control for the
current road conditions.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect 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 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. 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.
Traction Control (TRAC)
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 vehicle
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. All new Toyota vehicles come standard with the Star Safety System
TM, which
combines Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA)
and Smart Stop Technology (SST).
