When a high possibility of a frontal collision is detected by the radar \
sensor, a
buzzer sounds and a message urging the driver to take evasive action app\
ears on
the multi-information display. If the driver then applies brakes, the s\
ystem applies
greater brake force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depre\
ssed. If
the system determines that a collision is unavoidable, the brakes are au\
tomatically
applied to reduce the collision speed.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for limitations and more details on this \
system before
attempting to use it.
The Lane Departure Alert recognizes the visible lane markers using a cam\
era as a
sensor and alerts the driver with beeping and flashing indicators when t\
he vehicle
deviates from its lane. Press the LDA switch to activate the system.

VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine p\
ower and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle i\
s 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.
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by “pulsing” brake pressu\
re to each
wheel. This limits brake lockup and helps provide directional control fo\
r the current
road conditions.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wh\
eel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing release\
s brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the tr\
action that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional c\
ontrol.
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 qui\
ckly than
just the driver alone can. VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine p\
ower, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, o\
r uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels star\
ts 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.
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD\
) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehi\
cle 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 SystemTM, whi\
ch
combines Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), A\
nti-lock Braking
System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assis\
t (BA) and
Smart Stop Technology (SST).

n on
limitations to these systems.
