Safety System

Your vehicle comes standard with a Safety System, which combines Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), Brake Over-Ride System (BOS), Dynamic Stability
Control (DSC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Traction Control System
(TCS). Thus, your vehicle is equipped with safety systems similar to each of those that
together comprise Toyota's Star Safety System.
Refer to the Owner's Manual for more details and important information on limitations
to these systems.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
ABS control unit continuously monitors the speed of each wheel. If one wheel is about
to lock up, the ABS responds by automatically releasing and reapplying that wheel's
brake.
BRAKE ASSIST (BA)
During emergency braking situations when it is necessary to depress the brake pedal
with greater force, the brake assist system provides braking assistance, thus enhancing
braking performance.
When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly than for non-
emergency stops, the system applies the brakes more firmly.
BRAKE OVER-RIDE SYSTEM (BOS)
Brake Over-ride System automatically reduces driving torque when the accelerator and
brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
BOS 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.
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)
DSC automatically controls braking and engine torque in conjunction with systems such
as ABS and TCS to help control side slip when driving on slippery surfaces, or during
sudden or evasive maneuvering, enhancing vehicle safety.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE-FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
EBD makes it easier to maintain vehicle control and shortens the stopping distance
when there is a large load on the rear wheels, such as when the car is carrying a full
load of passengers. EBD optimally distributes the braking power between the front and
rear wheels depending on the load in order to increase the effectiveness of the rear-
wheel braking and minimize the difference in stopping distance between when the car
is fully loaded and when it is not.
