when an obstacle is detected. The screen
can be set so that the graphic is not dis-
played. ( →P.257)
When the vehicle is moving backward
 A simplified image is displayed on the
screen when an obstacle is detected.
(→ P.200, 228)
The distance to obstacles measured
by the sensors is communicated via
the display and a buzzer when parallel
parking or maneuvering into a garage.
Always check the surrounding area
when using this system.

■Buzzer operation and distance to an obstacle
A buzzer sounds when the sensors are operating.
 The buzzer sounds faster as the vehicle approaches an obstacle.
When the vehicle comes within the following distance of the obstacle, the buzzer
sounds continuously.
• Front corner sensors: Approximately 30 cm
• Rear corner sensors: Approximately 1.0 ft. (30 cm)
• Rear center sensors: Approximately 1.3 ft. (40 cm)
 When 2 or more obstacles are detected simultaneously, the buzzer system responds
to the nearest obstacle. If one or both come within the above distances, the beep will
repeat a long tone, followed by fast beeps.

The diagram shows the detection range of
the sensors. Note that the sensors cannot
detect obstacles that are extremely close
to the vehicle.
 The range of the sensors may change
depending on the shape of the object etc. 
There is dirt, snow or ice on a sensor.
 A sensor is frozen.
 A sensor is covered in any way.
 The vehicle is leaning considerably to one
side.
 On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass
 The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to
vehicle horns, motorcycle engines, air
brakes of large vehicles, or other loud
noises producing ultrasonic waves.
 There is another vehicle equipped with
parking assist-sensors in the vicinity.
 A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or
heavy rain.
 The vehicle is equipped with a fender pole
or radio antenna.
 Towing eyelets are installed.
 A bumper or sensor receives a strong
impact.
DETECTION RANGE OF THE
SENSORS
*
SENSOR DETECTION
INFORMATION
Certain vehicle conditions and sur-
rounding environments, such as the
following, may affect the ability of the
sensors to correctly detect objects.
Pay particular attention in the following
situations. Failure to do so may result
in the vehicle being driven unsafely,
possibly leading to an accident.

The vehicle is approaching a tall or right-
angled curb.
 In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
 A non-genuine Toyota suspension (low-
ered suspension etc.) is installed.
 People, animals and other moving objects
 People wearing certain types of clothing
 The shape of the obstacle may prevent a
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 pro- jecting outwards in the direction of your
vehicle
 In addition to the examples above, there
are instances in which, because of their
shapes, signs and other objects may be
judged by a sensor to be closer than
they are.
WA R N I N G
●Caution when using the intuitive parking
assist-sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Failing 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).
• Do not attach any accessories within the sensor range.
● Even though sensors which are func-
tioning properly continue to detect
obstacles, never use the intuitive park-
ing assist if one more sensor(s) may be
malfunctioning.
NOTICE
●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 mal-
functioning.
● As the intuitive parking assist-sensor
might be malfunctioning in the following
cases, have it checked by your Toyota
dealer.
• The graphic which indicates that an
obstacle has been detected does not
come on and a beep does not sound
even when the intuitive parking assist
mode is turned on.
• The graphic which indicates that an obstacle has been detected comes on
despite no obstacle around the vehicle.
• If your vehicle has been involved in an accident.
• If the graphic which indicates that an obstacles has been detected remains
on without a beeping sound.
