WARNING
■Obstacles which may not be properly detected
The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Pay par-
ticular 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
●People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
●Moving objects such as people or animals
NOTICE
■When using intuitive parking assist
In the following situations, the system may not function correctly due to a
sensor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle checked by your Toyota dealer.
●The intuitive parking assist operation display flashes, and a buzzer 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 beeping, except when the buzzer
volume is muted.
●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.

3224-5. Using the driving support systems
CAMRY_U (01999-06122)
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
Intelligent Clearance Sonar (ICS)∗
∗: If equipped
If a collision with an object may occur due to the vehicle sud-
denly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal
operation, the vehicle moving the unintended direction due to
the wrong shift position being selected, or while parking or trav-
eling at low speeds, the sensors detect objects, such as a wall,
in the traveling direction of the vehicle, and the system operates
to lessen an impact with an object and reduce the resulting dam-
age.

CAMRY_U (01999-06122)
If a radar sensor detects a vehicle approaching from the right or left at
the rear of the vehicle and a collision may occur, this function will per-
form brake control to reduce the likelihood of an impact with the
approaching vehicle.
■Examples of system operation
The system will operate in situations such as the following if an
object is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
◆When reversing, a vehicle is approaching and the brake pedal
is not depressed, or is depressed late

If the engine output restriction control or brake control operates, a
buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display to alert the driver.
Depending on the situation, engine output restriction control will operate to
either limit acceleration or restrict output as much as possible.

If the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function detects that a collision with
an object is possible, the engine output will be restricted to restrain
any increase in the vehicle speed. (Engine output restriction control:
See A below.)
Additionally, if the accelerator pedal continues to be depressed, the
brakes will be applied automatically to reduce the vehicle speed.
(Brake control: See B below.)
