3. INTUITIVE PARKING ASSIST
6
PERIPHERAL MONITORING SYSTEM
The vehicle is approaching a tall or right-
angled curb.
In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
A non-genuine Toyota suspension (low-
ered suspension etc.) is installed.
The shape of the obstacle may prevent a
sensor from detecting it. Pay particular
attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that
absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections pro-
jecting outwards in the direction of your
vehicle
In addition to the examples above, there
are instances in which, because of their
shapes, signs and other objects may be
judged by a sensor to be closer than
they are.
WA R N I N G
●Caution when using the intuitive parking
assist-sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle
being unable to be driven safely and
possibly cause an accident.
• Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 6 mph (10 km/h).
• Do not attach any accessories within
the sensor range.
●Even though sensors which are func-
tioning properly continue to detect
obstacles, never use the intuitive park-
ing assist if one more sensor(s) may be
malfunctioning.
NOTICE
●Notes when washing the vehicle
●Do not apply intensive bursts of water or
steam to the sensor area.
●Doing so may result in the sensor mal-
functioning.
●As the intuitive parking assist-sensor
might be malfunctioning in the following
cases, have it checked by your Toyota
dealer.
• The graphic which indicates that an
obstacle has been detected does not
come on and a beep does not sound
even when the intuitive parking assist
mode is turned on.
• The graphic which indicates that an
obstacle has been detected comes on
despite no obstacle around the vehicle.
• If your vehicle has been involved in an
accident.
• If the graphic which indicates that an
obstacles has been detected remains
on without a beeping sound.
