TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE

Pre-Collision System (PCS)
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help detect
vehicles and pedestrians in front of your vehicle. If the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is high, the system
warns the driver to take evasive action while the potential brake pressure is
increased to help the driver avoid collision or reduce the impact to the vehicle and
it’s occupants.
Note: PCS is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition On. The
system can be disabled/enabled and the warning timing of the system can be
changed.
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
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, the
system applies greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is
depressed.
Pre-collision braking
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, the
system warns the driver. If the system determines that the possibility of a collision
is extremely high, the brakes are automatically applied to help avoid the collision
or reduce the collision speed.

Changing the pre-collision warning timing
Each time the PCS switch is pressed,
the response to the warning distance
changes as follows:
Far
Middle
Near

Disabling the Pre-Collision System (PCS)
To disable the system
Press the PCS switch for 3 seconds or more.
The PCS warning light will turn on and a message will be displayed on the Multi-
Information Display (MID).

Monocular camera sensor
Millimeter wave radar
As part of PCS, this function is also designed to first provide an alert and then
automatic braking if needed.
Pedestrian Detection Function
The Pre-Collision System also features a pedestrian detection function. Using
a millimeter wave radar and monocular camera sensor, this advanced sensor
system can recognize pedestrians in some circumstances. It may provide detection
capability while driving at low as well as higher speeds.

26
The Lane Departure Alert system recognizes visible white or yellow lane markers
via a camera sensor. The system alerts the driver with a warning buzzer sound
and message in the Multi-Information Display (MID) when it detects the vehicle
deviating from or swaying multiple times within its lane.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA) with Steering
Assist Function
Press the LDA switch to turn the LDA system on. Depress again to turn it off.

when the engine is started again.
