(if equipped)
When a collision may occur with an obstacle while parking or traveling at low
speeds, when the vehicle suddenly moves forward due to mistaken accelerator
pedal operation, or when the vehicle moves due to the wrong shift position being
selected, the sensors are designed to detect obstacles to the front or rear in the
traveling direction of the vehicle, and the system operates to lessen impact with
obstacles such as walls, and reduce resulting damage.
CHANGE SETTINGS
Note: Use “”, “” 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 ignition is turned on
again.
Refer to section PKSB (Parking Support Brake function) in the Owner’s Manual for
limitations and more details.

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (BSM w/RCTA)
(if equipped)
The Blind Spot Monitor is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in making the decision when to
change 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
Prius’s blind spot. If a vehicle is detected, the driver will be alerted via the outside
rear view side mirror indicators.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert function:
While in reverse, when a vehicle approaching from the right or left rear of the Prius
is detected, the outside rear view mirror indicators flash
Note: Use
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 limitations and more details on this system before
attempting to use it.

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 grille. These sensors support the
driver assist systems.
Camera sensor
Radar sensor
TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
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.
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
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.
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.
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,
and provide an alert, mitigation and/or avoidance support in certain
conditions.
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)
DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding
vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed.

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 or
pedestrian 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.
Refer to the 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.

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.Under certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package may
also help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle using the in-vehicle camera
and front grille-mounted radar. 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.
PCS PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional limitations and information.
