The system will operate in situations such as the following if an object is detected
in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
◆When traveling at a low speed and the brake pedal is not depressed, or is
depressed late
: If equipped
Intelligent Clearance Sonar (ICS)
If a collision with an object may occur due to the vehicle suddenly moving for-
ward due to an accidental accelerato r pedal operation, the vehicle moving
the unintended direction due to the wrong shift position being selected, or
while parking or traveling at low speeds, the sensors detect objects, such a
wall, in the traveling direction of the ve hicle, and the system operates to lessen
an impact with an object and reduce the resulting damage.

■Re-enabling the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system
To re-enable the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system when it is disabled due to operation of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function, either enable the system again (P. 383),
or turn the engine switch off and then back to IGNITION ON mode.
Additionally, if the object becomes no longer in the traveling direction of the vehicle or if the traveling direction of the vehicle chan ges (such as changing from moving forward to
backing up, or from backing up to moving fo rward), the system will be re-enabled auto- matically.
■Objects that the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function may not detect
The sensors may not be able to detect certain objects, such as the following.
●Cotton cloth, snow, and other materials that are poor reflectors of ultrasonic waves.
(People may also not be detected depending on the type of clothing they are wearing.)
●Objects which are not perpendicular to the ground, are not perpendicular to the traveling direction of the vehicle, are uneven or are waving.
●Low objects
●Thin objects such as wires, fences, ropes and signposts
●Objects that are extremely close to the bumper
■Lexus parking assist-sensor buzzer
Regardless of whether the Lexus parking as sist-sensor system is enabled or not (P. 375), if the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is enabled ( P. 383), the front or rear sensors detect an object and brake control is performed, the Lexus parking assist-sensor
buzzer will sound to notify the driver of the approximate distance to the object.

■Re-enabling the Rear Crossing Traffic Auto Brake function
To re-enable the Rear Crossing Traffic Auto Brake function when it is disabled during
operation of the Rear Crossing Traffic Auto Brake function, either enable the system
again ( P. 383), or turn the engine switch o ff and then back to IGNITION ON mode.
Additionally, if there is no longer a vehicle ap proaching from the right or left at the rear of
the vehicle, or if the traveling direction of the vehicle changes (such as changing from
moving forward to backing up or from backing up to moving forward), the system will be
re-enabled automatically.
■Conditions under which the Rear Crossing Traffic Auto Brake function will not detect a
vehicle
The Rear Crossing Traffic Auto Brake function is not designed to detect the following
types of vehicles and/or objects.
●Vehicles approaching from directly behind
●Vehicles backing up in a parking space next to your vehicle
●Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehi cles and similar stationary objects*
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.*
●Vehicles moving away from your vehicle
●Vehicles approaching from the parking spaces next to your vehicle*
*
: Depending on the conditions, detection of a vehicle and/or object may occur.
■RCTA function buzzer
Regardless of whether the RCTA function is enabled or not ( P. 357), if the Rear Cross-
ing Traffic Auto Brake function is enabled an d brake control is performed, a buzzer will
sound to notify the driver.
●Vehicles that the sensors cannot detect due to
obstructions
●Vehicles which suddenly accelerate or
decelerate near your vehicle
