(if equipped)
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
Pre-Collision System (PCS)
Provides collision avoidance or damage mitigation
support in speed ranges where rear end collisions are
likely to occur.
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)
Provides notification regarding the risk of unintended
lane departure.
Auto High Beams (AHB)
Vehicle detects lights of leading or opposing vehicles
and automatically changes between high and low beam
headlight settings.
Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) C is a set of active safety technologies designed to
help prevent or mitigate collisions across a wide range of traffic situations. TSS C
is designed to help support the driver’s awareness, decision making and vehicle
operation contributing to a safe and comfortable driving experience.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details to understand these functions
and complete safety precautions before attempting to use any of TOYOTA
SAFETY SENSE C functions.
Sensors
Two types of sensors, located behind the front windshield, detect information
necessary to operate the drive assist systems. The single-lens camera in front of
the inside rear view mirror recognizes certain shapes and visible white or yellow
lane markings.

OVERVIEW FEATURES/OPERATIONS TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Pre-Collision System (PCS)
The Pre-Collision System uses a laser sensor and camera sensor to help detect
vehicles in front of your vehicle. If the system determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision with a vehicle 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.

distance changes as follows:
Far
Middle (default)
Near
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).

Press the LDA switch to turn the LDA system on. Depress again to turn it off.
Note: The system will continue in the last state it was in (ON or OFF) when the
engine is started again.
The Lane Departure Alert system recognizes visible white or yellow lane markers
via a front 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.

The LDA function displays when the Multi-Information Display (MID) is switched to
the driving assist system information screen.
(1) The system displays solid white lines on the LDA indicator when visible lane
markers on the road are detected. A side flashes orange to alert the driver when
the vehicle deviates from its lane.
(2) The system displays outlines on the LDA indicator when lane markers on the
road are not detected or the function is temporarily cancelled.(2)
Note: When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be temporarily
canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again, operation of
the function is automatically restored. For example, LDA may not function on the
side(s) where white/yellow lines are not detectable.

The AHB uses an in-vehicle camera sensor to assess the brightness of streetlights,
the lights of oncoming and preceding vehicles, etc., and automatically turns high
beam on or off as necessary.
Auto High Beams (AHB)

Activating the Automatic High Beam (AHB) system
(1) With the engine switch in IGNITION ON mode and headlight switch turned to
“ON” position, push lever away from you.
(2) Depress the Automatic High Beam “AUTO” switch.
The AHB indicator will come on when the headlights are turned on
automatically to indicate that the system is active.
Note: Pull the lever back toward you to turn the AHB system off.
The AHB indicator will turn off and the high beam indicator turns on.
Conditions where Automatic High Beams will turn ON/OFF automatically
When all of these conditions are met, high beams will be automatically turned on
(after approximately 1 second):
