Star Safety System
™
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle is traveling. When
it senses that the front or rear wheels begin to lose traction, VSC reduces engine power
and applies braking to selected wheels. This helps restore traction and vehicle control.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that current
road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control.
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or “panic” braking, and then add braking
pressure to help decrease the vehicle’s stopping distance. When there’s only a split
second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more quickly than just
the driver alone can.
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, or uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels starts to slip. TRAC
limits engine output and applies the brakes to the spinning wheel. This transfers power
to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you on track.
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help maintain
control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehicle to tilt forward,
reducing the braking power of the rear wheels. EBD responds to sudden stops by
redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of all four wheels.
Your new Toyota vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety System
TM
, which
combines Traction Control (TRAC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Vehicle
Stability Control (VSC), Brake Assist (BA) and an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
There are two types of Toyota floor mats: carpeted and all-weather. Each vehicle has
model-specific floor mats. Installation is easy.
To keep your floor mat properly positioned, follow these steps:
• Only use Toyota floor mats designed for your specific model.
• Use only one floor mat at a time, using the retaining hooks to keep the mat in place.
• Install floor mats right side up.
Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces engine power when the accelerator and
brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
SST engages when the accelerator is depressed first and the brakes are applied firmly
for longer than one-half second at speeds greater than five miles per hour.
SST doesn’t engage if the brake pedal is depressed before the accelerator pedal,
allowing vehicles to start on a steep hill and safely accelerate without rolling backward.
