SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
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.

1. Push and hold “
SET” button until
the indicator blinks three times.
2. Wait a few minutes to allow initialization to complete.
After adjusting tire pressures, or after tires have been rotated or replaced,
turn the “POWER”/ignition switch “ON” and press and hold the “
SET” button
until indicator blinks three times. Let the vehicle sit for a few minutes to allow
initialization to complete.
Refer to the load label on the door jamb or the Owner’s Manual for tire inflation
specifications.

If the

tire pressure indicator flashes for more than 60 seconds and then remains
on, take the vehicle to your local Toyota dealer.
NOTE:

The

warning light may come on due to temperature changes or changes
in tire pressure from natural air leakage. If the system has not been initialized
recently, setting the tire pressures to factory specifications should turn off the
light.

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES

Star Safety SystemTM
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing Hybrid System
output 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
Hybrid System output 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 Hybrid System
output, 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 Hybrid System 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. 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.

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
All new Toyota vehicles come standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, 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). Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces driving torque when the accelerator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
