■Function summary
If a parking space can be detected, you will be guided forward until
you reach the assist control starting position, and then the parallel
parking assist mode can be used. Furthermore, depending on the
parking space and other conditions, multi-turn maneuvering assist
control is also provided if necessary.
Continue moving forward
with the vehicle parallel to
the curb or road.
Then press the S-IPA switch
1 time to select the parallel
parking assist mode.
Travel straight ahead paral-
lel with the road or curb so
that the parking space is
detected.
A sound is issued and a dis-
play is shown to notify you
when the vehicle reaches a
position where assist control
can be used to begin backing
up from, and then when the
shift position is changed
according to guidance pro-
vided by the system, steering
wheel auto operation begins.
If the detected parking space or road width (distance to the side of the
road across from the parking space) is narrow, guidance will not be
issued.
Parking is complete
Move the vehicle forward and back repeatedly in accordance with the
guidance, until the vehicle is completely parked.

■ Parallel parking assist mode operating conditions
● In order to operate the parallel parking assist mode correctly, drive slowly (at
a speed at which the vehicle can be quickly stopped) parallel to the road (or
shoulder) while maintaining a distance of approximately 1 m (3.3 ft.) to any
parked vehicles.
● The function cannot be used when the vehicle speed is approximately
30 km/h (19 mph) or higher.
● The front side sensors and rear side sensors are used to detect parked
vehicles and determine the parking spot. Therefore, when detection is not
possible ( P. 400), guidance is not issued.
● If there are no parked vehicles, the parking spot cannot be determined.
Therefore, the parallel parking assist mode cannot be operated.
● If unable to detect the environment surrounding the parking space, the par-
allel parking assist mode may not be able to operate.

NOTICE
●If the road surface has any dips or inclines, the target parking spot cannot
be correctly set. Therefore, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may
deviate from the parking spot. In these cases, do not use the parallel park-
ing assist mode.
● When there is a wall or other obstacle on the inner side of the parking
space, or when another parked vehicle extends into the road from its park-
ing spot, the target parking spot may be set in a position that juts out
slightly into the road.
● Depending on the surrounding environment, such as other parked vehi-
cles, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may deviate from the park-
ing spot. Manually adjust vehi cle alignment as necessary.
● It may not be possible to detect objects that are low to the ground. Directly
confirm the safety of your surroundings and, if it seems the vehicle may
make contact with an obstacle, stop the vehicle by depressing the brake
pedal.
● The sensors may not be able to detect
curbs. The vehicle may drive onto the
curb depending on the situation, such
as if a vehicle in front or back of the
parking space has driven on the curb.
Check the surrounding area to prevent
the tires and wheels from being dam-
aged.
