If the message does not disappear, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
• When the temperature around the radar sensor is outside of the operational range,
such as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an extremely cold environment
• When the front camera cannot detect objects in front of the vehicle, such as when
driving in the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright lights are shining into the front
camera
• Depending on the conditions in the vicinity of the vehicle, the radar may judge the
surrounding environment can not be properly recognized. In that case, “Pre-Colli-
sion System Unavailable See Owner’s Manual” is displayed.

*: If equipped
The system can detect the following (The detectable objects differs
depending on the function.):
PCS (Pre-Collision System)*
The pre-collision system uses a radar sensor and front camera to
detect objects (→P.160) in front of the vehicle. When the system
determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with an object is
high, a warning operates to urge the driver to take evasive action
and the potential brake pressure is increased to help the driver
avoid the collision. If the system determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision with an object is extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.
The pre-collision system can be disabled/enabled and the warning
timing can be changed. (→P.164)

4-5. Using the driving support systems
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
If the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or reduce the impact of
the collision.
■Emergency steering assist (for
region A)
If the system determines that the
possibility of a collision with a
pedestrian is high and that there is
sufficient space for the vehicle to be
steered into within its lane, and the
driver has begun evasive maneuver
or steering, emergency steering
assist will assist the steering move-
ments to help enhance the vehicle
stability and for lane departure pre-
vention.
■Intersection right/left turn
assistance (for region A)
If the system determines that there
is a high possibility of a collision in
the following situations, it will assist
with Pre-collision warning and, if
necessary Pre-collision braking.
Depending on the configuration of
the intersection, it may not be pos-
sible to support.
z When you turn right/left at an
intersection and cross the path of
an oncoming vehicle
z When you turn right/left, pedes-
trian is detected in the forward
direction and estimated to enter
your vehicle’s path (bicyclists are
not detected.)
WARNING
■Limitations of the pre-collision system
●The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely, taking care to observe your sur-roundings.
Do not use the pre-collision system instead of normal braking opera-tions under any circumstances.
This system will not prevent colli- sions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. Do not
overly rely on this system. Failure to do so may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.

WARNING
●Although this system is designed to help avoid a collision or help reduce
the impact of the collision, its effec- tiveness may change according to various conditions, therefore the
system may not always be able to achieve the same level of perfor-mance.
Read the following conditions care- fully. Do not overly rely on this sys-tem and always drive carefully.
• Conditions under which the system may operate even if there is no pos-
sibility of a collision: →P. 1 6 7
• Conditions under which the system
may not operate properly: →P. 1 6 9
●Do not attempt to test the operation
of the pre-collision system yourself. Depending on the objects used for testing (dummies, cardboard
objects imitating detectable objects, etc.), the system may not operate properly, possibly leading to an
accident.
■Pre-collision braking
●When the pre-collision braking function is operating, a large amount of braking force will be
applied.
●If the vehicle is stopped by the
operation of the pre-collision brak- ing function, the pre-collision brak-ing function operation will be
canceled after approximately 2 sec- onds. Depress the brake pedal as necessary.
●The pre-collision braking function may not operate if certain opera-tions are performed by the driver. If
the accelerator pedal is being depressed strongly or the steering wheel is being turned, the system
may determine that the driver is tak- ing evasive action and possibly pre-vent the pre-collision braking
function from operating.
●In some situations, while the pre-
collision braking function is operat- ing, operation of the function may be canceled if the accelerator pedal
is depressed strongly or the steer- ing wheel is turned and the system determines that the driver is taking
evasive action.
●If the brake pedal is being
depressed, the system may deter- mine that the driver is taking eva-sive action and possibly delay the
operation timing of the pre-collision braking function.
■Emergency steering assist (for region A)
●As emergency steering assist oper-
ation will be canceled when the sys- tem determines that lane departure prevention function has been com-
pleted.
●Emergency steering assist may not
operate or may be cancel in the fol- lowing cases as the system may determine the driver is taking
actions.
• If the accelerator pedal is being
depressed strongly, the steering wheel is being operated sharply, the brake pedal is being depressed
or the turn signal lever is being operated. In this case, the system may determine that the driver is tak-
ing evasive action and the emer- gency steering assist may not operate.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
■Enabling/disabling the pre-col-
lision system
The pre-collision system can be
enabled/disabled on ( →P.361)
of the multi-information display.
The system is automatically enabled
each time the engine switch is turned to
ON.
If the system is disabled, the PCS
warning light will turn on and a
message will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
WARNING
• In some situations, while the emer- gency steering assist is operating,
operation of the function may be canceled if the accelerator pedal is depressed strongly, the steering
wheel is operated sharply or the brake pedal is being depressed and the system determines that the
driver is taking evasive action.
• When the emergency steering
assist is operating, if the steering wheel is held firmly or is operated in the opposite direction to that which
the system is generating torque, the function may be canceled.
■When to disable the pre-colli-sion system
In the following situations, disable the
system, as it may not operate prop- erly, possibly leading to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
●When the vehicle is being towed
●When your vehicle is towing another vehicle
●When transporting the vehicle via truck, boat, train or similar means of transportation
●When the vehicle is raised on a lift with the engine running and the
tires are allowed to rotate freely
●When inspecting the vehicle using
a drum tester such as a chassis dynamometer or speedometer tes-ter, or when using an on vehicle
wheel balancer
●When a strong impact is applied to
the front bumper or front grille, due to an accident or other reasons
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehicle has been in an accident or
is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When tires of a size other than
specified are installed
●When tire chains are installed
●When a compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair kit is
used
●If equipment (snow plow, etc.) that
may obstruct the radar sensor or front camera is temporarily installed to the vehicle

■Changing the pre-collision
warning timing
The pre-collision warning timing
can be changed on ( →P.361) of
the multi-information display.
The warning timing setting is retained
when the engine switch is turned off.
However, if the pre-collision system is
disabled and re-enabled, the operation
timing will return to the default setting
(middle).
For region A: If the pre-collision
warning timing is changed, emer-
gency steering assist timing will
also be changed accordingly.
If late is selected, emergency steer-
ing assist would not operate in case
of an emergency.
