WARNING
●Do not attach objects, such as stickers, transparent stickers, etc.,
to the outer side of the windshield in front of the front camera (shaded area in the illustration).
From the top of the windshield to
approximately 1 cm (0.4 in.) below
the bottom of the front camera
Approximately 20 cm (7.9 in.)
(Approximately 10 cm [4.0 in.] to
the right and left from the center of
the front camera)
●If the part of the windshield in front
of the front camera is fogged up or covered with condensation or ice, use the windshield defogger to
remove the fog, condensation or ice. ( P.221, 225)
●If water droplets cannot be properly removed from the area of the wind-shield in front of the front camera by
the windshield wipers, replace the wiper insert or wiper blade.
●Do not attach window tint to the windshield.
●Replace the windshield if it is dam-aged or cracked.After replacing the windshield, the
front camera must be recalibrated. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for details.
●Do not allow liquids to contact the front camera.
●Do not allow bright lights to shine into the front camera.
●Do not dirty or damage the front camera.When cleaning the inside of the
windshield, do not allow glass cleaner to contact the lens of the front camera. Also, do not touch the
lens. If the lens is dirty or damaged, con-tact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not subject the front camera to a strong impact.
●Do not change the installation posi-tion or direction of the front camera or remove it.
●Do not disassemble the front cam-era.
●Do not modify any components of the vehicle around the front camera
(inside rear view mirror, etc.) or ceil- ing.
●Do not attach any accessories to the hood, front grille or front bumper that may obstruct the front camera.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for
details.
●If a surfboard or other long object is
to be mounted on the roof, make sure that it will not obstruct the front camera.

When the area around a camera is cov-
ered with dirt, moisture (fogged up, cov-
ered with condensation, ice, etc.), or
other foreign matter
Using the wiper and A/C function,
remove the dirt and other attached mat-
ter. ( P.221, 225).
When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational
range, such as when the vehicle is in the
sun or in an extremely cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as after
the vehicle had been parked in the sun,
use the air conditioning system to
decrease the temperature around the
front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle
was parked, depending on its type, the
sunlight reflected from the surface of the
sunshade may cause the temperature of
the front camera to become excessively
high.
If the front camera is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold
environment, use the air conditioning
system to increase the temperature
around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera is
obstructed, such as when the hood is
open or a sticker is attached to the part of
the windshield in front of the front cam-
era.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc.,
to clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collision System Radar In
Self Calibration Unavailable See
Owner’s Manual” is displayed.
Check whether there is attached materi-
als on the radar sensor and radar sensor
cover, and if there is, remove it.

■Object detection function
The system detects objects based on their size, profile, motion, etc. However, an object may not be detected depend-
ing on the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture, and angle of the detected object, preventing the system
from operating properly. ( P.169) The illustration shows an image of detectable objects.
■Conditions under which the system
may operate even if there is no pos- sibility of a collision
●In some situations such as the follow-ing, the system may determine that there is a possibility of a frontal colli-
sion and operate. • When passing a detectable object, etc.
• When changing lanes while overtak- ing a detectable object, etc.• When approaching a detectable
object in an adjacent lane or on the roadside, such as when changing the course of travel or driving on a wind-

truck or guardrail • When driving near a TV tower, broad-casting station, electric power plant,
radar equipped vehicles, etc., or other location where strong radio waves or electrical noise may be present
• When there are many things which can reflect the radio waves of the radar in the vicinity (tunnels, truss
bridges, gravel roads, snow covered road that have tracks, etc.)• While making a right/left turn, when an
oncoming vehicle or a crossing pedestrian has already exited the path of your vehicle
• While making a right/left turn, closely in front of an oncoming vehicle or a crossing pedestrian

path of your vehicle • While making a right/left turn, when an oncoming vehicle turns right/left in
front of your vehicle
• While steering into the direction of
oncoming traffic
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
●In some situations such as the follow-ing, an object may not be detected by the radar sensor and front camera,
preventing the system from operating properly:• When a detectable object is
approaching your vehicle • When your vehicle or a detectable object is wobbling
• If a detectable object makes an abrupt maneuver (such as sudden swerving, acceleration or deceleration)
• When your vehicle approaches a
detectable object rapidly • When a detectable object is not directly in front of your vehicle
• When a detectable object is near a wall, fence, guardrail, manhole cover,
vehicle, steel plate on the road, etc. • When a detectable object is under a structure
• When part of a detectable object is hidden by an object, such as large baggage, an umbrella, or guardrail
• When there are many things which can reflect the radio waves of the radar in the vicinity (tunnels, truss
bridges, gravel roads, snow covered road that have tracks, etc.)• When there is an effect on the radio
waves to the radar that is installed on another vehicle• When multiple detectable objects are
close together • If the sun or other light is shining directly on a detectable object
• When a detectable object is a shade of white and looks extremely bright• When a detectable object appears to
be nearly the same color or brightness as its surroundings• If a detectable object cuts or suddenly
emerges in front of your vehicle • When the front of your vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc.
• When a very bright light ahead, such as the sun or the headlights of oncom-ing traffic, shines directly into the front
camera • When approaching the side or front of a vehicle ahead

pedestrian approaches from behind or side of your vehicle
●In addition to the above, in some situ-ations, such as the following, the emergency steering assist may not
operate. • When the white (yellow) lane lines are difficult to see, such as when they are
faint, diverging/merging, or a shadow is cast upon them• When the lane is wider or narrower
than normal • When there is a light and dark pattern on the road surface, such as due to
road repairs • When a pedestrian is detected near the centerline of the vehicle
• When the target is too close • When there is insufficient safe or unobstructed space for the vehicle to
be steered into • If oncoming vehicle is present• If VSC function is operating
●In some situations such as the follow-ing, sufficient braking force or steering
force 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 main-
tained (brakes or tires are excessively
worn, improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)• When the vehicle is being driven on a
gravel road or other slippery surface • When the road surface has deep wheel tracks
• When driving on a hill road • When driving on a road that has inclines to the left or right
■If VSC is disabled
●If VSC is disabled ( P.212), the pre- collision brake assist and pre-collision
braking functions are also disabled.
●The PCS warning light will turn on and
“VSC Turned OFF Pre-Collision Brake System Unavailable” will be displayed on the multi-information display.
