Driving assist system
WARNING
■Toyota Safety Sense
The Toyota Safety Sense 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 rec- ognition 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 vehicle’s surroundings
and driving safely.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
steered into within its lane, and the
driver has begun evasive maneuver
or steering, emergency steering
assist will assist the steering move-
ments to help enhance the vehicle
stability and for lane departure pre-
vention. During operation, the indi-
cator will illuminate in green.
■Intersection right/left turn
assistance
If the system determines that there
is a high possibility of a collision in
the following situations, it will assist
with Pre-collision warning and, if
necessary Pre-collision braking.
Depending on the configuration of
the intersection, it may not be pos-
sible to support.
When you turn right/left at an
intersection and cross the path of
an oncoming vehicle
When you turn right/left, pedes-
trian is detected in the forward
direction and estimated to enter
your vehicle’s path (bicyclists are
not detected.)
WARNING
■Limitations of the pre-collision system
●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking care to observe your sur-
roundings. Do not use the pre-collision system instead of normal braking opera-
tions under any circumstances. This system will not prevent colli-sions or lessen collision damage or
injury in every situation. Do not overly rely on this system. Failure to do so may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Although this system is designed to
help avoid a collision or help reduce the impact of the collision, its effec-tiveness may change according to
various conditions, therefore the system may not always be able to achieve the same level of perfor-
mance. Read the following conditions care-fully. Do not overly rely on this sys-
tem and always drive carefully.
• Conditions under which the system
may operate even if there is no pos- sibility of a collision: P. 2 1 5

●Intersection right/left turn assistance (pre-collision warning)
When the turn signal lights are not flashing, support for turni ng left or right at an inter-
section which targets oncoming vehicles does not work.
●Intersection right/left turn assistance (pre-collision braking)
When the turn signal lights are not flashing, support for turni ng left or right at an inter-
section which targets oncoming vehicles does not work.
■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.217) 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-
ing road

• While making a right/left turn, when a
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.278), 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.

*: If equipped
While driving on a road with clear
white (yellow) lane lines, the LTA
system warns the driver if the vehi-
cle may deviate from the current
lane or course*, and also can
slightly operate the steering wheel
to help avoid deviation from the
lane or course*. Also, while the
dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is operating, this
system will operate the steering
wheel to maintain the vehicle’s lane
position.
The LTA system recognizes white
(yellow) lane lines or a course*
using the front camera. Additionally,
it detects preceding vehicles using
the front camera and radar.

side of the road, such as grass, soil,

LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist)*
Summary of functions
WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LTA sys-
tem. The LTA system does not automatically 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 surrounding conditions and operating the steering wheel to cor-
rect the path of the vehicle. Also, the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such as from
driving for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate driv-
ing operations and pay careful attention may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA system
In the following situations, use the LTA switch to turn the system off. Fail-ure to do so may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road surface
which is slippery due to rainy weather, fallen snow, freezing, etc.
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-cov-ered road.
●White (yellow) lines are difficult to see due to rain, snow, fog, dust, etc.
●Vehicle is driven in a temporary lane or restricted lane due to con-
struction work.
●Vehicle is driven in a construction
zone.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc., are
equipped.
●When the tires have been exces-
sively worn, or when the tire infla- tion pressure is low.

■Lane departure alert function
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane or course*, a warning is dis-
played on the multi-information dis-
play, and either a warning buzzer
will sound or the steering wheel will
vibrate to alert the driver.
When the warning buzzer sounds or
the steering wheel vibrates, check the
area around your vehicle and carefully
operate the steering wheel to move the
vehicle back to the center of the lane.
Vehicle with BSM: When the system
determines that the vehicle might
depart from its lane and that the possi-
bility of a collision with an overtaking
vehicle in the adjacent lane is high, the
lane departure alert will operate even if
the turn signals are operating.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■Steering assist function
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane or course*, the system pro-
vides assistance as necessary by
operating the steering wheel in
small amounts for a short period of
time to keep the vehicle in its lane.
Vehicle with BSM: When the system
determines that the vehicle might
depart from its lane and that the possi-
bility of a collision with an overtaking
vehicle in the adjacent lane is high, the
