before attempting to use “Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.”
In distance control mode, vehicle is designed to cruise at a set speed, \
decelerate to
maintain a selected distance from a slower vehicle traveling in front, a\
nd accelerate
back up to the selected speed if the vehicle in front changes lanes or s\
peeds up.
(1) Push the ON-OFF button to activate/deactivate the system.
(2) To set, pull the lever down.
(3) To increase and set speed, push the lever up.
To decrease, push lever down. Move the lever slightly to adjust in 1 mph\
increments. Move all way up/down to adjust in 5 mph increments.
(4) To resume set speed, push up and hold.
To cancel pull the lever toward you, or depress the brake pedal.

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
Star Safety System™
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control provides cooperative control of the A\
BS, TRAC,
VSC and EPS.
Enhanced VSC helps to maintain directional stability when loss of tracti\
on occurs
during a turn.
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing Motor po\
wer
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 star\
ts to slip.
TRAC limits Motor power output and applies the brakes to the spinning wh\
eel. This
transfers power to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you \
on track.
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.
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 System
TM, which
combines Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Braking
System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assis\
t (BA) and
Smart Stop Technology (SST).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
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 qui\
ckly than
just the driver alone can.
Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces driving torque when the acce\
lerator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
