System)
∗
■Function summary
The Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System automatically
operates the steering wheel to provide support when backing into
an area near a target parking spot, and when departing from a par-
allel parking spot. (Changing the shift position and speed adjust-
ment when moving forward or backing up are not performed
automatically.)
● The Simple Advanced Parking Gu idance System does not park
the vehicle automatically. It is a system that provides support
when pulling out of a perpendicular or parallel parking spot.
● The Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System provides steer-
ing wheel operation assistance to guide the vehicle toward the
selected intended parking spot. The selected intended parking
spot may not always be reach able, depending on road and vehi-
cle conditions at the time of parking, and the distance to the
intended parking spot.
■Linking with the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function
While the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System is operating,
if the system detects an obstacle that could result in a collision, the
emergency brakes operat e, regardless of whether the Intelligent
Clearance Sonar function is on or off. ( →P. 444)
