When the adaptive cruise control is automatically paused, it can only be reactivated when safe conditions are restored. The message "Activation not possible, conditions unsuitable" is displayed while reactivation is not possible.When the conditions allow, it is recommended that the function be reactivated by pressing button 2 ( S E T+) or 3 (SET-), which will make the current speed of your vehicle the new cruise speed setting, rather than by pressing button 4 (on/pause) which reactivates the cruise control using the old cruise speed setting, which may be very different from the current speed of your vehicle.
The speed regulation range is limited to a maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h) between the speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front.Above this, the system goes into pause if the safe distance becomes too small.The adaptive cruise control uses only engine braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing the accelerator pedal.The system is paused automatically:- if the vehicle in front slows down too much or too suddenly, and the driver does not brake,- if a vehicle comes between your vehicle and the vehicle in front,- if the system does not slow the vehicle enough to continue to maintain a safe distance, for example when descending a steep hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of detection is quite narrow, it is possible that the system may not detect:
- vehicles of reduced width, such as motorcycles, for example,
- vehicles not running in the middle of the lane,
- vehicles entering a corner,- vehicles changing lane at the last moment.
The cruise control does not take account of:- stationary vehicles,- vehicles driving in the opposite direction.

In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by an audible signal and display of the message message "Driving aid functions fault".Have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating faultThe adaptive cruise control operates by day and at night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
When the cruise control is working, take care if making a maintained press on one of the cruise control programmed speed modification buttons: this can lead to a very quick change in the speed of your vehicle.Do not use the adaptive cruise control on slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control may not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.When ascending a steep hill or when towing, it might not be possible to achieve or maintain the programmed speed.
The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with the operation of the adaptive cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:- ensure that mats are secured c o r r e c t l y,- never fit one mat on top of another.It is recommended that you always keep your feet close to the pedals.
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine braking.The regulation range is limited: there will no longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too high.
The adaptive cruise control cannot in any circumstances replace the obser vation of speed limits, nor the need for the vigilance on the part of the driver.

Forward collision warning and Autonomous
emergency braking system with Pedestrian
Detection
Conditions for operation
The Autonomous emergency braking system operates:- between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h), in the case of a moving vehicle,- at a speed below 50 mph (80 km/h), in the case of a stationary vehicle,- at a speed below 36 mph (60 km/h), in the case of a pedestrian,- if the passenger seat belts are fastened,- if the vehicle is not accelerating sharply,- if the vehicle is not in a tight corner.v
The Forward collision warning system allows the driver to be warned that their vehicle is at risk of collision with the vehicle in front or a pedestrian in their traffic lane.The Autonomous emergency braking system inter venes following the aler t if the driver does not react quickly enough and does not operate the vehicle's brakes.If the driver fails to act, it contributes towards avoiding a collision or limiting its severity by reducing the speed of your vehicle.
These systems use a radar located in the front bumper and a camera at the top of the windscreen.
These system are designed to improve road safety.It is the driver's responsibility to continuously monitor the state of the traffic, observing the driving regulations.These systems do not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The Forward collision warning system only operates:- with a registered vehicle pointing in the same direction as the traffic, moving or stationary,- with pedestrians.- from 4 mph (7 km/h) (and is deactivated at 3 mph (5 km/h)).

244
The Autonomous emergency braking system does not operate:- if the front bumper is damaged,- if the system has been triggered in the last 10 seconds,- if the electronic stability control system has a fault.
Limits of operation
It is recommended that the system be deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu in the following cases:- if the windscreen has impact damage close to the detection camera,- when towing a trailer or caravan,- when a load on the roof rack extends beyond the windscreen (for example: long objects),- when the vehicle is being towed, with the engine running,- when a "space-saver" type spare wheel is fitted (if your vehicle has one),- when on a rolling road for a ser vice in a workshop,- when in an automatic car wash,- if the brake lamps are not working.
Following an impact, the system is automatically disabled; contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to have the system checked.
Forward collision warning
Depending on the degree of risk of collision detected by the system and the alert threshold chosen, different levels of alert can be triggered and displayed in the instrument panel or the head-up display.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle time between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that the vehicle ahead is very close.A message on your vigilance is displayed as you close on the vehicle ahead.
This information also appears in the head-up display.For more information on the Head-up display, refer to the corresponding section.
Driving

245
This level of alert is based on the time before collision. It takes account of the vehicle dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one in front, the environmental conditions, the operation of the vehicle (cornering, pedals pressed, etc.) to trigger the alert at the best moment.
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning you that a collision is imminent.A message indicating that you should brake is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too high approaching another vehicle, the first level of alert may not be displayed: the level 2 alert may be displayed di r e c t l y.Furthermore, the level 1 alert is never displayed with the "Close" threshold.Poor weather conditions (very heavy rain, accumulation of snow in front of the radar and the camera) may hinder the operation of the system, with the display of an operating fault message. The system remains out of ser vice until the message disappears.
Programming the alert thresholds
The thresholds for triggering an alert determine how you wish to be warned of the presence of a vehicle moving or stationary ahead of you, or a pedestrian in your traffic lane.You can select one of three thresholds:- "Distant", to be warned early (cautious driving).- "Normal".
- "Close", to be warned later.
With audio system or touch screen
The current threshold can be modified in the vehicle configuration menu using the audio system or the touch screen.

246
This system, also called automatic emergency braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a frontal collision by your vehicle (between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h)) where the driver fails to react.Using a radar and a camera, this system acts on the vehicle's braking system.
Autonomous emergency
braking
The driver can take back control of the vehicle at any time by sharply turning the steering wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
Operation of the system may be felt by slight vibration in the brake pedal.If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 seconds.If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the engine may stall.If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the vehicle will move off again; press the brake pedal.
If automatic emergency braking is not activated, you are alerted by the fixed display of this warning lamp accompanied by a message.
If the radar and the camera have confirmed the presence of a vehicle or a pedestrian, this warning lamp flashes when the system is operating.
Important: if operation of the automatic emergency braking is triggered, you should take back control of your vehicle and brake with the pedal to add to or finish the automatic braking.

247
Deactivation / Activation of
the alert and the braking
By default, the function is automatically activated at every engine start.
Autonomous emergency braking system with Pedestrian Detection
If the driver does not brake sufficiently to avoid an accident, this system will complete the braking.This emergency braking system will not act if you press the brake pedal.
In the event of a fault, you are alerted by the illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message.Contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating fault
There may be interference in the operation of the camera or it not work at all in the following situations:- poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, falling snow or rain, fog, ...),- dazzle (headlamps of an approaching vehicle on the other side of the road, low sun, reflection on a wet road, leaving a tunnel, alternating between light and shade, ...),- the area in front of the windscreen: dirty, misty, frosty, snow-covered, damaged or covered by a sticker.The operation of the radar, located in the front bumper, may be disturbed in certain weather conditions: with accumulations of snow, ice, mud, ...
With audio system or touch screen
This system can be deactivated or activated via the vehicle configuration menu.

Driving

248
Clean the front bumper, removing the snow, mud, ...
If one of the two sensors (camera or radar) is masked or its visibility is reduced, while the other sensor is able to work normally, the system still operates, but at a lower level of per formance. This is not indicated by a message or a warning lamp.To ensure correct operation of the radar radar, do not paint over the paintwork on the vehicle's bumper.
Keep the windscreen in front of the camera clean.Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could mask the camera's view.
Lane Departure Alert
System that uses a camera to recognise continuous or broken lines on traffic lanes and triggers an alert if the vehicle wanders off line.If the direction indicator is not used at speeds above 50 mph (80 km/h) and there is a risk of one of these lines on the ground being crossed, the system triggers the alert.The system is particularly useful on motor ways and fast roads.
Detection - Alert
You are alerted by the flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal.
No alert is given while the direction indicators are operating and for approximately 20 seconds after the direction indicators are switched off.
The Lane Departure Alert cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.It is necessary to obser ve the driving regulations and to take a break every
two hours.
