FEATURES & OPERATIONS
The Blind Spot Monitor is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in making the decision when
changing lanes)
• The Rear Cross Traffic Alert function (assists the driver when backing up)
The system is designed to use radar sensors to detect vehicles traveling in the
Avalon HV’s blind spot and advises the driver of the vehicles’ presence via the
outside rear view mirror indicators.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for limitations and more details on this system before
attempting to use it.

The rear view monitor system displays an image of the view from the bumper of
the rear area of the vehicle. The camera for the rear view monitor system is located
above the license plate.
To adjust the image on the rear view monitor screen, press the “APPS” button
and select “Display” on the “Setup” screen. Select “Camera” to adjust the screen
contrast and brightness.
Refer to the Navigation Owner‘s Manual for limitations and more details on this
system.

The Bird’s Eye View Camera with Perimeter Scan function assists the driver in
viewing the surroundings, when operating at low speeds or parking, by combining
front, side and rear cameras and displaying an overhead image on the Entune™
screen.
To view or turn OFF the screen, press the camera switch when the shift lever is in
the “P” position. It will display two angles, the Moving view and the See Through
view.

For limitations and more details, refer to section 6-2 in the “Navigation System

FEATURES & OPERATIONS
The VSC OFF switch can be used to help free a stuck vehicle in surroundings like
mud, dirt or snow. While car is stopped, press switch to disable the TRAC system.
To disable both VSC and TRAC systems, press and hold the switch for at least 3
seconds.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)/
TRAC OFF switch
When parking, this available system scans for stationary objects, like walls or
lampposts. Should the system anticipate a collision, it will emit an audible and
visible alert, reduce engine or motor output, and automatically apply the brakes
if needed. If your vehicle is equipped with ICS, the RCTA system will also have a
braking function that may apply the vehicle’s brakes if the system detects crossing
vehicles while the Avalon HV is backing up.
Note: Use “” or “” and “” of the meter control switches to select
and in the Multi-Information Display (MID) to change settings. The
system will continue in the last state it was in (ON or OFF) when the engine is
started again.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system.

Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P)
Sensors
TSS-P combines an in-vehicle camera mounted in front of the inside rear view mirror
and a millimeter-wave radar mounted in the front grill. These sensors support the
driver assist systems. Toyota Safety Sense
™ P (TSS-P) is a set of active safety technologies designed
to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic situations, in
certain conditions. TSS-P is designed to help support the driver’s awareness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving experience.

Pre-Collision System with
Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
OVERVIEW FEATURES & OPERATIONS TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help detect a
vehicle or pedestrian in front of your vehicle.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control performance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This system will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. Do not use
PCS instead of normal braking operations under any circumstances. Do not attempt
to test the operation of the pre-collision system yourself, as the system may not
operate or engage, possibly leading to an accident. In some situations, such as
when driving in inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a sandstorm or
while driving on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve, a vehicle
may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventing the system from
operating or engaging properly.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situations in which the
system may not operate properly.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS w/PD operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to use it. 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
If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may provide additional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and may apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision with a preceding vehicle is extremely high, the
system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to help the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
CHANGING PCS ALERT TIMING
(1) Press “” switches and select from the Multi-Information Display (MID).
(2) Press “
” or “” switches and select from the MID and then press
“
”. The setting screen is displayed.
(3) Press “
” each time to change the setting. Each time it is pressed, the
response to the PCS alert timing changes as shown above. You can press “
” to
go back to the menu.
Note: PCS is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition On.
The system can be disabled/enabled and the alert timing of the system can be
changed. (Alert timing only, brake operation remains the same).
Monocular camera sensor
Millimeter
wave radar
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.
