( P.294)PKSB (Parking Support
Brake)*
The Parking Support Brake system
consists of the following functions
that operate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such as when
parking. When the system deter-
mines that a collision with a
detected object or pedestrian is
high, a warning operates to urge
the driver to take evasive action. If
the system determines that the pos-
sibility of a collision with a detected
object or pedestrian is extremely
high, the brakes are automatically
applied to help avoid the collision or
help reduce the impact of the colli-
sion.

WARNING
■Limitations of the Parking Support
Brake system
Do not overly rely on the system, as
doing so may lead to an accident.
●The driver is solely responsible for safe
driving. Always drive carefully, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The Parking Support Brake system is
designed to provide support to lessen
the severity of collisions. However, it
may not operate in some situations.
●The Parking Support Brake system is
not designed to stop the vehicle com-
pletely. Additionally, even if the system
has stopped the vehicl e, it is necessary
to depress the brake pedal immedi-
ately as brake control will be canceled
after approximately 2 seconds.
NOTICE
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavail-
able” is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display and the PKSB OFF
indicator is flashing
If this message is displayed immediately
after the power switch is changed to ON
mode, operate the vehicle carefully, pay-
ing attention to your surroundings. It may
be necessary to drive the vehicle for a
certain amount of time before the system
returns to normal. (If the system is not
return to normal afte r driving for a while,

●A sensor may be cove red with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the system to
normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at
low temperatures, a warning message
may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice
melts, the system wi ll return to normal.
●If this message is displayed only when the
R shift position is selected, the rear cam-
era lens may be dirty. Clean the camera
lens. If this message is displayed in any
forward shift position, a sensor on the
front or rear bumper may be dirty. Clean
the sensors and their surrounding area
on the bumpers.
●If this message continues to be displayed
even after cleaning the sensor, or is dis-
played even though the sensor is clean,
have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus
dealer.
●Initialization may not have been per-
formed after a 12-volt battery terminal
was disconnected and reconnected. Ini-
tialize the system. ( P.282)
If this message continues to be displayed
even after initializati on, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■If a 12-volt battery terminal has been
disconnected and reconnected
The system needs to be initialized. To initial-
ize the system, drive the vehicle straight
ahead for 5 seconds or more at a speed of
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h) or more.

■Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) will operate when
The function will oper ate when the PKSB
OFF indicator is not illuminated or flashing
(  P.77, 78) and all of the following condi-
tions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• The shift position is in R.
• The rear camera sensor detects a pedes- trian behind the vehicle while backing up
and the system determines that the possi-
bility of colliding with the detected
pedestrian is high.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control is operating. • The Parking Support Brake determines
that an emergency brake operation is
necessary to avoid a collision with a
pedestrians.
■The Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) will stop operating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the
following conditions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with
normal brake operation.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle.
●Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was stopped by brake
control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by brake control.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected behind your vehicle.
■Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake
function (rear pedestrians)
 P.282
■Detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
The detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians) differs
from the detection area of the RCD func-
tion ( P.276). Therefore, even if the RCD
function detects a vehicle and provides an
alert, the Parking Support Brake function
(rear-crossing vehicles) may not start oper-
ating.
■Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
●Some pedestrians, such as the following,
may not be detected by the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear pedestrians),
preventing the function from operating
properly:
• Pedestrians who are bending forward or squatting
• Pedestrians who are lying down
• Pedestrians who are running
• Pedestrians who suddenly enter the detection area
WARNING
■If the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates unneces-
sarily
Depress the brake pedal immediately
after the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates. (Operation
of the function is canceled by depressing
the brake pedal.)
■Correct use of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
Do not overly rely on the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear pedestrians).
Depending on the road conditions, vehi-
cle conditions and weather, this function
may not operate correctly. As the detec-
tion performance of the rear camera is
limited, always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings.
Additionally, if the PKSB OFF indictor is
flashing or a warning message is dis-
played on the center display indicating
that the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) is unavailable, the
function cannot be used. Even if these
warnings are not output, the driver is
always responsible for paying attention
to the vehicle’s surro undings and driving
safely.
