WARNING
■ Toyota Safety Sense P
The Toyota Safety Sense P is designed to operate under the assumption
that the driver will drive safely, and is designed to help reduce the impact to
the occupants and the vehicle in the case of a collision or assist the driver in
normal driving conditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control perfor-
mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The
driver is always responsible for paying attention to the vehicl e’s surround-
ings and driving safely.

If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information disp lay
A system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be a malfu nction in
the system.
● In the following situations, perform the actions specified in t he table. When
the normal operating conditions are detected, the message will disappear
and the system will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationActions
When the area around a camera
is covered with dirt, moisture
(fogged up, covered with con-
densation, ice, etc.), or other for-
eign matter
Using the wiper and A/C function, remove
the dirt and other attached matter
( P. 344).
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 environ-
ment
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 sys-
tem 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 camera.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc. to
clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collision System
Unavailable” is displayedCheck whether there is attached materi-
als on the radar sensor and radar sensor
cover, and if there is, remove it.

PCS (Pre-Collision System)
The pre-collision system uses a radar sensor and front camera
to detect vehicles and pedestrians in front of your vehicle. When
the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collisi on
with a vehicle or pedestrian i s high, a warning operates to urg e
the driver to take evasive action and the potential brake pres-
sure is increased to help the driver avoid the collision. If the sys-
tem determines that the possibi lity of a frontal collision with a
vehicle or pedestrian is extremely high, the brakes are automat i-
cally applied to hel p avoid the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.
The pre-collision system can b e disabled/enabled and the warnin g
timing can be changed. ( P. 2 5 9 )

2564-5. Using the driving support systems
SEQUOIA_OM_USA_OM0C047U
◆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 to urge the
driver to take evasive action.
◆Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is high, the system applies greater braking force in relat ion to
how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
◆Pre-collision braking
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is high, the system warns the driver. If the system determ ines
that the possibility of a frontal collision is extremely high, the brakes
are automatically applied to hel p avoid the collision or reduce the
collision speed.
◆Suspension control
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is high, the Adaptive Variable Suspension System (
P. 3 1 6 )
will control the damping force of the shock absorbers to help m ain-
tain an appropriat e vehicle posture.

WARNING
■Limitations of the pre-collision system
● The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
Do not use the pre-collision system instead of normal braking o perations
under any circumstances. This system will not prevent collision s or lessen
collision damage or injury in every situation. Do not overly re ly on this sys-
tem. Failure to do so may lead to an accident, resulting in dea th or serious
injury.
● Although this system is designed to help avoid a collision or h elp reduce
the impact of the collision, its effectiveness may change according to vari-
ous conditions, therefore the system may not always be able to achieve
the same level of performance.
Read the following conditions carefully. Do not overly rely on this system
and always drive carefully.
• Conditions under which the system may operate even if there is no pos- sibility of a collision: P. 263
• Conditions under which the system may not operate properly: P. 265
● Do not attempt to test the operation of the pre-collision syste m yourself.
Depending on the objects used for testing (dummies, cardboard o bjects
imitating detectable objects, etc.), the system may not operate properly,
possibly leading to an accident.
■ Pre-collision braking
● When the pre-collision braking function is operating, a large a mount of
braking force will be applied.
● If the vehicle is stopped by the operation of the pre-collision braking func-
tion, the pre-collision braking function operation will be canceled after
approximately 2 seconds. Depress the brake pedal as necessary.
● The pre-collision braking function may not operate if certain operations are
performed by the driver. If the accelerator pedal is being depressed
strongly or the steering wheel is being turned, the system may determine
that the driver is taking evasive action and possibly prevent the pre-colli-
sion braking function from operating.
● In some situations, while the pre-collision braking function is operating,
operation of the function may be canceled if the accelerator pedal is
depressed strongly or the steering wheel is turned and the syst em deter-
mines that the driver is taking evasive action.
● If the brake pedal is being depressed, the system may determine that the
driver is taking evasive action and possibly delay the operation timing of
the pre-collision braking function.
