OVERVIEW
FEATURES & OPERATIONS
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
The system is designed to use radar sensors to detect vehicles traveling in the
Highlander’s blind spot when to change lanes. If a vehicle is detected, the driver
will be alerted via the outside rear view side mirror indicators.
While in reverse, when a vehicle approaching from the right or left rear of the
Highlander is detected, the outside rear view mirror indicators flash.
Refer to the Toyota Owner‘s Manual for limitations and more details on this system
before attempting to use it.

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
Radar sensor Camera sensor
Sensors
TSS 2.0 combines an in-vehicle camera mounted in front of the inside rear view
mirror and a radar mounted in the front grille. These sensors support the driver assist
systems.
The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help detect a
vehicle or pedestrian or bicyclist 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 or pedestrian or bicyclist
may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventing the system from
operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situations in which the
system may not operate properly.
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.
