LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ● Parallel parking assist mode information
• There is a possibility that parallel parking guidance may not be given
when backing up at a very slow speed.
• If the back door is opened during parallel parking guidance, parallel
parking assist will be interrupted and canceled. Stop the vehicle,
shift the shift lever out of the “R” position, and restart the operation
from the procedure “1”.
● Canceling parallel parking assist Select .
● Vehicles equipped with intuitive parking assist
If intuitive parking assist detects an object while you attempt to park in
a parking space on the le ft, the black and yellow vertical pole could be
obscured by intuitive park ing assist display. In th is event, turn intuitive
parking assist switch off ( P. 249), and operate the vehicle while
checking the safety of the surroun ding area direct visually and with
mirror. After the operation, turn the switch on.
● If the message “Steering wheel turned too far, please return.” is dis-
played
The steering wheel has been turned too far, and the system cannot
function. Return the steering wheel to its original position.
If the message is displayed before the outline is positioned over the
desired parking space, it is likely that the vehicle is too far away from
the shoulder. Check that there is a gap of approximately 3 ft. (1 m)
between your vehicle and the parked vehicle.
