the vehicle to detect the distance between the vehicle and any obsta
cles, and informs the driver of th
is distance using the multiinforma
tion display, the touch screen, and warning beeps.
nSensor types
Front corner sensors
Rear corner sensors
Back sensors
nToyota park assist system switch

When driving
Beeps and obstacle distance
A beep sounds when the corner sensors and back sensors are oper−
ating.
lThe beep sounds faster as the vehicle approaches an obstacle.
When the vehicle comes within the following distance of the obsta−
cle, the beep sounds continuously.
Front corner and back sensors: Approximately 1.1 ft. (35 cm)
Rear corner sensors: Approximately 1.0 ft. (30 cm)
lWhen two or more obstacles are detected simultaneously, the
beep system responds to the neare
st obstacle. If one or both come
within the above distances, the bee p will repeat a long tone, fol−
lowed by fast beeps.
l
You can change the volume of the warning beeps. ( P. 187)

About 1.8 ft. (60 cm)
About 5.0 ft. (150 cm)
The detection area of the sensors
is shown to the left. If obstacles
move too close to the sensors,
they will not be detected.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape
of the object etc.
