When the vehicle is almost entirely within the target parking spot,
a high-pitched beep is emitted and the stop indicator is shown on
the display, stop the vehicle.
This completes the paralle l parking assist mode.
● After stopping, feel free to maneuver the vehicle to reach the
desired parking spot.
● Be sure to back up while checking the area to the front and
rear of the vehicle directly and by using the mirrors.
■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 3 ft. (1 m) to any
parked vehicles.
● The function cannot be used when the vehicle speed is approximately
19 mph (30 km/h) 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. 393), 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.
● Guidance will continue until the vehicle speed meets or exceeds approxi-
mately 19 mph (30 km/h) or the function is turned OFF using the S-APGS
switch.
■ Timing for pressing the S-APGS switch
In the following cases, the assist mode may also operate during the step\
s
taken to park using the parallel parking assist mode. However, in these
cases, conduct parking procedures according to the information on the multi-
information display.
●In step the S-APGS switch is pressed after already passing over the tar-
get parking spot.
● If the vehicle is not stopped in step , pressing the S-APGS switch 1 time
while the vehicle is in motion allows you to select “Parallel Parking” and pro-
ceed directly to step .
● The vehicle is moved up to the position in step without the S-APGS
switch being pressed. Then the S-APGS switch is pressed after having
changed the shift position to R.

that the display on the multi-information display switches to “Exit
Parallel Parking”.
Operate the turn signal lever ( P. 240) to select whether you
would like to depart to the left or right.
If there are any obstacles in the direction the vehicle is departing in, the
system determines that it is not possible to depart, and assist control is
stopped.
When the shift position is changed to R (or D) according to the
advice display on the screen ( P. 363), a high-pitched beep is
emitted and assist control will start.
Step and onward is for cases in which the advice display shows “Shift
to [R]” after operating the turn signal lever to select a departure direc-
tion.

wheel auto operation display ( P. 363) and assistance level
indicator ( P. 363) will be shown in the display area.

WARNING
●Do not rely solely upon the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System.
As with unequipped vehicles, move forward and back up carefully while
directly confirming the safety of your surroundings and the area to the rear
of the vehicle.
● Do not back up while viewing the multi-information display. Backing up
while only viewing the monitor screen may cause a collision or lead to an
accident, as the image displayed on the monitor screen may differ from
actual conditions. Make sure to visually check the surrounding areas and
the area to the rear of the vehicle with and without the mirror while backing
up.
● Drive slowly while adjusting your speed by depressing the brake pedal
when backing up or moving forward.
● If it seems the vehicle may make contact with a pedestrian, another vehi-
cle or any other obstacles, stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal,
and then press the S-APGS switch to turn OFF the system.
● Use the system in a parking lot with a flat surface.
● Observe the following precautions, as the steering wheel automatically
turns during use.
• There is risk of a necktie, scarf, your arm, etc. being caught on the
steering wheel. Please do not allow your upper body to be close to the
steering wheel. Also, do not allow children close to the steering wheel.
• There is a possibility of injury when the steering wheel turns if you have long fingernails.
• In case of an emergency, stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal, and then press the S-APGS switch to turn OFF the system.
● Always confirm that there is appropriate space before attempting to park
the vehicle and operate the system.

WARNING
●Observe the following precautions, as the sensors may stop functioning
properly which may lead to an accident.
• Do not subject the sensor to strong shocks by hitting it, etc. The sen-
sors may not function properly.
• When using a high-pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray
water directly on the sensors. Equipment may not function properly if
subjected to an impact from strong water pressure. If the vehicle
bumper strikes something, equipment may not operate properly due to
a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
● In the following situations, the sensors may not operate normally and may
lead to an accident. Drive carefully.
• Obstacles cannot be detected in the side areas until a scan of the side
areas is completed ( P. 341).
• Even after the scan of the side areas is completed, obstacles such as other vehicles, people or animals that approach from the sides cannot
be detected.
• The sensor is frozen (if it thaws, the system returns to normal). A warn- ing message may display at particularly low temperatures due to the
sensor freezing and it may not detect parked vehicles.
• The sensor is blocked by someone’s hand.
• The vehicle is tilted a large amount.
• The temperature is extremely hot or cold.
• The vehicle is driven on undulating r oads, slopes, gravel roads, in areas
with tall grass, etc.
• An ultrasonic wave source is nearby, such as the horn or sensors of another vehicle, a motorcycle engine or the air brake of a large vehicle.
• Heavy rain or a water strikes the vehicle.
• The angle of the sensor may be deviated when assist control starts even if there is a parked vehicle next to the target parking spot. Have
the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
• Do not install any accessories within the sensor detection range.
