your vehicle. Back the vehicle up slowly.
When the vehicle is parallel with the road or the shoulder, straighten the

●Vehicles with intuitive parking assist
If intuitive parking assist detects an object while you attempt to park in a
parking space on the right, the blac
k and yellow vertical pole could be
obscured by intuitive parking assist display. In this event, turn intuitive park-
ing assist switch off ( →P. 239), and operate the vehicle while checking the
safety of the surrounding area direct visually and with mirror. After the
operation, turn the switch on.
●If the message “Steering wheel turned too far, please return.” is displayed
The steering wheel has been turned too far, and the system cannot func-
tion. 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.

CAUTION
■When using the perpendicular parking assist screen
Estimated course line display mode: If the steering wheel is straight and the vehicle
width extension guide lines and the estimate d course lines are not in alignment, have
the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■When using the parallel parking assist screen
●Do not use the system if the display is incorrect due to an uneven (curvy/hilly) road or
a non-straight road.
●Make sure to operate the steering wheel only when the vehicle is stopped.
●Be sure to check that there are no obstacles inside the blue outline.
If there are any obstacles inside the blue ou tline, do not use the parallel parking assist.
●When positioning the blue outline over the parking space, be sure to position it so
that the extended blue line may not cross the tire of the vehicle parked in front of the
empty space.
●If the extended line of the blue outline may be
crossing the parked vehicle, your vehicle is
too close. Check that there is a gap of
approximately 3 ft. (1 m) between your vehi-
cle and the parked vehicle.
