5-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
■For safe use
Do not rely solely upon the system. Relying solely upon the system may
lead to an unexpected accident.
● Driving safely is the sole responsibility of the driver. Pay careful attention
to the surrounding conditions in order to ensure safe driving. The Intelli-
gent Clearance Sonar function can provide support to lessen the severity
of collisions. However, it may not operate depending on the situation.
● The Intelligent Clearance Sonar function is not a system designed to com-
pletely stop the vehicle. Furthermore, even if the Intelligent Clearance
Sonar function is able to stop the vehicle, brake control is canceled after
approximately 2 seconds, so depress the brake pedal immediately.
■ In order for the system to operate properly
Make sure to observe the following precautions regarding the sensors
(→ P. 431). Failure to observe these precautions may cause the sensors
not to operate properly, and may result in an unexpected accident.
● Do not perform work such as modification, disassembly or painting
● Only perform replacements using genuine parts
● Do not subject the area around the sensors to any impacts
● Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean
■ Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as changes to the height or incline of the
vehicle may prevent the sensors from correctly detecting obstacles, may
cause the system not operate, or may cause the system to operate unnec-
essarily.

NOTICE
■Preventing sensor malfunctions
● If the area around a sensor is subjected to an impact, equipment may not
operate properly due to a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected
at your Toyota dealer.
● When using a high-pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray
water directly on the sensors. The sensors may not function properly if
subjected to an impact from strong water pressure.
● When using steam to wash the vehicle, do not direct steam too close to
the sensors. The sensors may not function properly if subjected to steam.
■ Preventing unnecessary operation
In the following situations, turn the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function off.
The system may operate even though there is no possibility of a collision.
● A chassis roller, chassis dynamo, free roller or similar equipment is being
used for an inspection, etc.
● The vehicle is being loaded onto a ship, truck or other transport vessel
● The suspension has been lowered or tires that have a different size than
the genuine tires are equipped
● The height of the vehicle has drastically changed due to the carried load
(the nose tilts up or down).
● A towing eyelet is installed

●When lowering the vehicle, make su re that there is no-one near the
vehicle. If there are people nearby, warn them vocally before lowering.
■When removing the jack from the storage location
