Driving
●The shape of the obstacle may prevent the 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 projecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle
● The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detection
distance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
• Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between obstacle detection and display. Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the obstacle will come within the
sensor’s detection areas before the display is shown and the warning
beep sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected for colli- sion when approached, even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of audio system or air flow noise of air conditioning system.
■ If the display flashes and a message is displayed
P. 480, 482
■ Certification (Canada only)
This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001.
CAUTION
■When using the intuitive parking assist
Observe the following precautions.
Failure 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).
● The sensors’ detection areas and reaction times are limited. When moving
forward or reversing, check the areas surrounding the vehicle (especially
the sides of the vehicle) for safety, and drive slowly, using the brake to
control the vehicle’s speed.
● Do not install accessories within the sensors’ detection areas.
2104-5. Using the driving support systems
NOTICE
■When using intuitive parking assist-sensor
In the following situations, the system may not function correctly due t\
o a
sensor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle checked by your Toyota dealer.
● A beep does not sound when you turn the main switch on.
● The intuitive parking assist operation display flashes, and a beep sounds
when no obstacles are detected.
● If the area around a sensor collides with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.
● If the bumper collides with something.
● If the display shows continuously without a beep.
● If a display error occurs, first check the sensor.
If the error occurs even if there is no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is
likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.
■ 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 malfunctioning.

Rear view monitor system
Vehicles with Entune Audio Plus or Entune Premium Audio
(Multimedia system types: P. 254)
Refer to the “NAVIGATION SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL”.
Vehicles with Entune Audio (Multimedia system types: P. 254)
The rear view image is displayed
when the shift lever is in R and the
engine switch is in the “ON” posi-
tion.
The rear view monitor system will
be deactivated when the shift lever
is in any position other than R.
The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying an
image of the view behind the veh icle with fixed guide lines on
the screen while backing up, for example while parking.
The screen illustrations used in this text are intended as examples,
and may differ from the image that is actually displayed on the
screen.
2184-5. Using the driving support systems
CAUTION
■When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a supplemental device intended to assist
the driver when backing up. When backing up, be sure to visually check all
around the vehicle both directly and using the mirrors before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in
death or serious injuries.
● Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up.
The image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may
differ from the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle.
● Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle
speed.
● The instructions given are only guide lines.
When and how much to turn the steering wheel will vary according to traf-
fic conditions, road surface conditions, vehicle condition, etc. when park-
ing. It is necessary to be fully aware of this before using the rear view
monitor system.
● When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate
your vehicle before maneuvering into it.
● Do not use the rear view monitor system in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or emergency tires
• When the tailgate is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or slopes.
● In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become
faint. The image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may
become unable to see the image on the screen. Be sure to visually check
all around the vehicle both directly and using the mirrors before proceed-
ing.
● If the tire sizes are changed, the position of the fixed guide lines displayed
on the screen may change.
● The camera uses a special lens. The distances between objects and
pedestrians that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ
from the actual distances. ( P. 214)
2424-5. Using the driving support systems
While driving 20 - 25 mph [35 - 40 km/h], fully apply the manual
TRAILER BRAKE OUTPUT
slider.
Adjust the gain setting, using the GAIN (+/-) selection buttons, to
either increase or decrease to just below the point of trailer wheel
lock-up.
For confirmation, repeat steps and until desired gain setting
is reached (just below point of trailer wheel lock-up).
■ When using the trailer brake control system
Please turn off the intuitive parking assist while towing a trailer. If left on,
sonar sensors will detect the trailer being towed.
■ When setting the gain
Wheel lock-up occurs when the trailer wheel squeals or tire smoke occurs.
Trailer wheels may not lock-up while driving heavily loaded trailer. During this
case, adjust the Trailer gain to the highest allowable setting for the towing
condition.
■ When disconnecting and reco nnecting battery terminals
The gain setting data will be reset.
CAUTION
■ Trailer brake type setting
It is the responsibility of the driver to make sure the trailer brakes are func-
tioning normally and adjusted appropriately. Failure to check and maintain
trailer brakes may result in loss of vehicle control, crash, or serious injury.
Trailer brake control system will work with most electric and electric-over-
hydraulic trailer braking systems up to 3 axles (24A output to trailer brakes).
Please be sure to test compatibility with the system at low speeds and in a
safe area. When a warning message appears in the multi-information dis-
play (P. 483), the gain setting may be too high. Please use the trailer
brakes with reduced gain. If there is still a problem, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
Some electric-over-hydraulic trailer brakes will take some minimum output
to activate. Trailer brake control system will not work with trailer hydraulic
surge brakes.
■ When driving on slippery road surfaces
When stopping with ABS activated, output to the trailer might be reduced in
order to reduce the likelihood of trailer to sway or trailer wheels to lock. The
trailer is not equipped with ABS. Drive safely on slippery road surfaces.
