Instructions given are only examples.
When and how much to turn the steer-
ing wheel will vary according to traffic
conditions, road surface conditions,
vehicle condition, etc. when parking.
It is necessary to be fully aware of this
before using the
advanced parking
guidance system.
Also, when parking, be sure to check
that the parking space will accommo-
date your vehicle before maneuvering
into it.
CAUTION
Depending on the circumstances of
the vehicle (number of passengers,
amount of luggage, etc.), the set tar-
get parking position displayed on the
screen may change. Be sure to check
visually behind and all around the ve-
hicle before proceeding.

guidance system
To activate the advanced parking guid-
ance system, shift to “R” when the
“POWER” switch is in ON mode.
If you move the shift position out of “R”,
the screen returns to the previous

the navigation system will display
another screen.
Even if the shift position is in “R”, if you
push any of the mode buttons around
the display, such as “MAP/VOICE” or
“INFO·PHONE” , the screen will switch
to that mode.

Parallel parking assist mode assists
the driver with parallel parking by auto-
matically controlling the steering wheel
when backing up, in order to park in the
target position set on the screen.
CAUTION
When backing up, be sure to check
your surroundings and behind the
vehicle for safety, and back up
slowly, depressing the brake pedal
to control vehicle speed.
If you seem likely to hit nearby ve-
hicles, obstacles or people, de-
press the brake pedal to stop the
vehicle, then disable the system by
touching on the screen.
As the system only assists with parking in
a set target parking position, there are
times when the system will be unable to
render this assistance, depending on fac-
tors such as road surface or vehicle condi-
tion, or the distance to the set target park-
ing position.
Use the system with full understanding of
the fact.
If a message is displayed while maneuver-
ing, follow the procedures outlined in “ —
What to do when this sort of message is
displayed” on page 226.
The illustrations here describe the proce-
dure for pulling into a parking space on the
right. For pulling into a parking space on
the left, substitute left for right and vice ver-
sa in all steps.
The operating method differs depending
on whether or not the pre− support function
is in use. PRESUPPORT FUNCTION
The presupport function can be used
when there is a space between two
parked vehicles. If a parking space is
detected, this function will inform the
driver using a tone when the vehicle is
in a position to begin backing up, and
guides the vehicle to a position from
which assistance can be given.
Guidance will not be given if the detected
space is narrow.

INFORMATION
To allow the presupport system
to activate accurately, move the ve-
hicle as slowly as possible (at a
speed that will allow the vehicle to
be stopped suddenly).
 If only one vehicle is parked, the
presupport system cannot be
used.
 The function cannot be used if the
shift position is in “P” or “R”, or if
the vehicle speed is greater than 9
mph (15 km/h).
 In order to identify parking spaces
and detect parked vehicles using
the sensors on both sides of the
front bumper, guidance cannot be
given if a space is not detected.
 Parking space guidance and
searching continues until the ve-
hicle speed is greater than 9 mph
(15 km/h) or until the function is
turned off by pushing the presup-
port switch.

hicle reaches a position from
which the front edge of the leading
parked vehicle can be seen along-
side.

as possible so that the vehicle can
be stopped as soon as the two
chimes sound.
 The chimes will not sound if the ve-
hicle does not arrive in a backing
up position. If the vehicle is
stopped and the shift position is
shifted to “R” before the chimes
sound, the screen shown in step 4
of “(b) When the presupport func-
tion is not in use” on page 206 is
