TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 (TSS 2.0) 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 2.0 is designed to help support the driver’s awareness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving experience.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for operation, setting adjustments, limitations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautions. For
more information, please go to http://www.toyota.com/safety-sense
Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
PCS w/PD is designed to provide alert, mitigation, and/or avoidance
support in certain conditions, when the system detects a potential
collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
The advanced millimeter-wave radar sensor system is designed to work
with the camera sensor to help recognize a preceding pedestrian or
bicyclist, and provide an alert, mitigation and/or avoidance support in
certain conditions.
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA)
LDA w/SA is designed to provide notification when the system detects
an unintended lane departure.
The Steering Assist function is designed to provide small corrective
steering inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help
keep the vehicle in its lane.
The Sway Warning function is designed to detect vehicle swaying
(based on the vehicle location and steering wheel operation) and alert
the driver with an audio and visual alert, urging them to take a break.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)
AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and
the tail lights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams
and low beams as appropriate.
Road Sign Assist (RSA)
RSA is designed to recognizes specific road signs using the forward
facing camera to provide information to the driver via the display.
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)
Full-Speed Range DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set
distance to a preceding vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling
at a lower speed. The minimum set speed is approximately 20 MPH, but
once activated, the operating speed range is 0-110 MPH.
Lane Tracing Assist (LTA)
LTA contains all the features of LDA described above and additionally
is designed to help keep the vehicle in the center of a lane by assisting
the driver in steering control when using Full-Speed Range DRCC.

LANE CENTERING
The lane centering function is linked with Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise
Control (DRCC) and provides the required assistance by operating the steering
wheel to keep the vehicle in its current lane.
When dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range is not operating, the lane
centering function does not operate.
(1) Press “
” or “” switches and select “” from the Multi-Information Display
(MID).
(2) Press “
” or “” switches and select “ LTA” and then press and hold “.”
(3) Press “
” or “” switches and select “Lane center” and then press and hold
“
” to select the desired setting.
(4) Press “
” to go back to the menu.
Note: Operation of the LTA system and setting adjustments continues in the
same condition regardless of Ignition cycle until changed by the driver or the
system is reset.

Full-Speed Range DRCC helps maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding vehicle
when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed. This mode is always
selected first when the cruise control button is depressed. Constant speed cruise
control mode is also available. Full-Speed Range DRCC is designed to function at
speeds between 0 to approximately 110 MPH and is intended for highway use.

ADJUSTING DISTANCE (CONTINUED)
Note: When your vehicle is too close to a vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is not possible, the display will flash and the
buzzer will sound to alert the driver. An example of this would be if another driver
cuts in front of you while you are following a vehicle. Depress the brake pedal to
ensure an appropriate vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
(3) Acceleration when there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving
slower than the set speed The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.
SWITCHING TO CONSTANT SPEED (CRUISE) CONTROL MODE
SETTING CONSTANT SPEED (CRUISE) CONTROL
If you are already using DRCC “”, push ON-OFF button to turn the system off
first, then push and hold ON-OFF button for at least 1.5 seconds to switch.
Note: When the engine is turned off, it will automatically default to DRCC.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on DRCC operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to use it.
