As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.In certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package may also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety Sense™ P,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter-wave radar to
help detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle in certain conditions. The in-vehicle
camera of PCS detects a potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and motion of
the detected pedestrian. However, a pedestrian may not be detected depending
on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture,
size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the system from
operating or engaging. Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
LDA in TSS-P uses an in-vehicle camera designed to detect visible white and yellow
lane markers in front of the vehicle and the vehicle’s position on the road. If the
system determines that the vehicle is starting to unintentionally deviate from its lane,
the system alerts the driver with an audio and visual alert. When the alerts occur, the
driver must check the surrounding road situation and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to the center part of their lane.
LDA is designed to function at speeds of approximately 32 MPH or higher on
relatively straight roadways.
In addition to the alert function, LDA w/SA also features a steering assist
function. When enabled, if the system determines that the vehicle is on a path to
unintentionally depart from its lane, the system may provide small corrective steering
inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its
lane.

swaying, the system alerts the driver using a buzzer sound and a warning displays
in the MID.

Automatic High Beams (AHB)
(1) With the engine switch in IGNITION ON mode and headlight switch turned to
“AUTO” position, push lever away from you.
The “
” indicator will come on when the headlights are turned on
automatically to indicate that the system is active.
(2) Pull the lever back toward you to turn the AHB system off.
The “
” will turn off and the “” turns on.
When all of these conditions are met, high beams will be automatically turned on
(after approximately 1 second):
• Vehicle speed is above approximately 21 mph (34 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
• There are no oncoming or preceding vehicles with headlights or tail lights
turned on.
• There are few street lights on the road ahead.
If any of these conditions occur, the system is designed to automatically turn off
high beams:
• Vehicle speed drops below approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.
• Oncoming or preceding vehicles have headlights or tail lights
turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the road ahead.
ACTIVATING THE AHB SYSTEM
CONDITIONS WHERE AHB WILL TURN ON/OFF AUTOMATICALLY
AHB is a safety system designed to help drivers see more of what’s ahead at
nighttime without dazzling other drivers. When enabled, AHB uses an in-vehicle
camera to help detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and tail lights of
preceding vehicles, then automatically switches between high and low beams
as appropriate to provide the most light possible and enhance forward visibility.
By using high beams more frequently, the system may allow earlier detection of
pedestrians and obstacles.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on AHB operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to use it.
