Enabling/disabling th
e pre-collision system
The pre-collision sy stem can be enabled/disabled on ( P. 9 8 )
of the multi-information display.
The system is automatically enabled each time the engine switch is
turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key syste m) or the
engine switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a sm art
key system).
If the system is disabled, the
PCS warning light will turn on
and a message will be dis-
played on the multi-information
display.
■Changing the pre-colli sion warning timing
The pre-collision warning timing can be changed on ( P. 98) of
the multi-inform ation display.
The operation timing setting is retained when the engine switch is
turned off.
Far
The warning will begin to oper-
ate earlier than with the default

■Operational conditions
The pre-collision system is enabled and the system determines that the pos-
sibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is high.
Each function is operational at the following speeds:
● Pre-collision warning:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 7 and 110 mph (10 and 1 80
km/h). (For detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between ap proxi-
mately 7 and 50 mph [10 and 80 km/h].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or ped estrian
ahead is approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) or more.
● Pre-collision brake assist:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 20 and 110 mph (30 and 180
km/h). (For detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between ap proxi-
mately 20 and 50 mph [30 and 80 km/h].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or ped estrian
ahead is approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) or more.
● Pre-collision braking:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 7 and 110 mph (10 and 1 80
km/h). (For detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is between ap proxi-
mately 7 and 50 mph [10 and 80 km/h].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or ped estrian
ahead is approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) or more.
The system may not operate in the following situations:
● If a battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected and then the
vehicle has not been driven for a certain amount of time
● If the shift lever is in R
● If VSC is disabled (only the pre-collision warning function wil l be opera-
tional)
● If the low speed four-wheel drive indicator is illuminated (onl y the pre-colli-
sion warning function will be operational)
■ Pedestrian detection function
The pre-collision system detects pedestri-
ans based on the size, profile, and motion
of a detected object. However, a pedes-
trian may not be detected depending on
the surrounding brightness and the
motion, posture, and angle of the
detected object, preventing the system
from operating properly. (P. 259)

In some situations such as the following, sufficient braking fo rce may not be
obtained, preventing the system from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to their full extent, such as when
the brake parts are extremely cold, extremely hot, or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively
worn, improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other sli ppery sur-
face
● Some pedestrians such as the following may not be detected by t he radar
sensor and front camera, preventing the system from operating p roperly:
• Pedestrians shorter than approximately 3.2 ft. (1 m) or taller than approx-
imately 6.5 ft. (2 m)
• Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing (a rain coat, long skir t, etc.), mak-

WARNING
■Before using LDA system
Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. The LDA system does not auto-
matically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by paying careful attention to the surround-
ing conditions and operating the steering wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigu ed, such as
from driving for a long period of time.
Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■ To avoid operating LDA system by mistake
When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system off.
■ Situations unsuitable for LDA system
Do not use the LDA system in the following situations.
The system may not operate properly and lead to an accident, re sulting in
death or serious injury.
● A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are equipped.
● Objects or patterns that could be mistaken for white (yellow) l ines are
present on the side of the road (guardrails, curbs, reflective poles, etc.).
● Vehicle is driven on a snow-covered road.
● White (yellow) lines are difficult to see due to rain, snow, fog, dust, etc.
● Asphalt repair marks, white (yellow) line marks, etc. are prese nt due to
road repair.
● Vehicle is driven in a temporary lane or restricted lane due to construction
work.
● Vehicle is driven in a construction zone.
■ Preventing LDA system malfunctions and operations performed by
mistake
● Do not modify the headlights or place stickers, etc. on the sur face of the
lights.
● Do not modify the suspension etc. If the suspension etc. needs to be
replaced, contact your Toyota dealer.
● Do not install or place anything on the hood or grille. Also, d o not install a
grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.).
