Electronically modulated air suspension
(If equipped)
The electronically modulated air suspension allows the driver to control\
the
vehicle’s height in order to adjust for driving conditions.
Select the desired height with the height control switch.
“N” mode (normal mode): For ordinary driving.
“HI” mode (high mode): For driving on bumpy roads 1.2 in. (30 mm) higher than
the normal height.
“LO” mode (low mode): For the ease of egress/ingress and loading luggage. -1.2 in. (30 mm) lower than the normal height
Vehicle height can be adjusted only when the engine is running.
The selected height mode will be shown on the electronically modulated a\
ir
suspension display. The selected mode will flash while the height mode i\
s being
changed.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details on this \
system.

The Blind Spot Monitor is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in making the \
decision when
changing lanes)
• The Rear Cross Traffic Alert function (assists the driver when bac\
king up)
The system is designed to use radar sensors to detect vehicles traveling\
in the
Sequoia’s blind spot. If a vehicle is detected, the driver will be al\
erted 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
Sequoia is detected, the outside rear view mirror indicators will flash \
and a buzzer
will sound.

FEATURES & OPERATIONS
Intuitive parking assist
The parking assist sonar system operates when the vehicle approaches an \
obstacle. The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when parall\
el parking
or maneuvering into a garage is measured by sensors and communicated via\
the
Multi-Information Display (MID) and a buzzer.
When the sensor detects an obstacle, the direction and the approximate d\
istance
to the obstacle are displayed on the MID by illuminating continuously (\
far) or
blinking (near), and beeping sounds will switch from intermittent to c\
ontinuous as
you approach and get closer to a detected obstacle. When the sensors det\
ect two
or more obstacles, the audible alerts will respond to the nearest zone. \
Always check the surrounding area when using this system.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details.

The Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD) is desig\
ned to
help detect a vehicle or a pedestrian in certain situations. Using a com\
bination of
a camera and radar, PCS w/ PD can provide an audio/visual alert to warn \
you of
a possible collision under certain circumstances. If you don’t react,\
the system is
designed to automatically brake.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control pe\
rformance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This sy\
stem will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situati\
on. 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 syste\
m 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 san\
dstorm 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, preventi\
ng the
system from operating or engaging properly.
See toyota.com/safety-sense for more information.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situation\
s in which the
system operation may be limited.
Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision i\
s high, a
buzzer will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the Multi-I\
nformation
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 addi\
tional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and m\
ay apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is dep\
ressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines tha\
t 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 he\
lp the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.

LANE DEPARTURE ALERT
Lane Departure Alert (LDA) indicator flashes orange when operating.
The LDA function
displays when the Multi-Information Display (MID) is
switched to the driving assist system information screen.
(1) The system displays solid white lines on the LDA indicator when visible \
lane markers on the road are detected. A side flashes orange to alert the dri\
ver when
the vehicle deviates from its lane.
(2) The system displays outlines on the LDA indicator when lane markers on t\
he road are not detected or the function is temporarily canceled.
Note: When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be
temporarily canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again,
operation of the function is automatically restored. For example, LDA may not
function on the side(s) where white/yellow lines are not detectable.
