■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on the multi-information
display
A sensor may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In such case s, if it is
removed from the sensor, the system should return to normal.
Also, due to the sensor being frozen at low temperatures, a mal function dis-
play may appear or an obstacle may not be detected. If the sens or thaws out,
the system should return to normal.
■ If “Parking Assist Malfunction” is displayed on the multi-information dis-
play
Depending on the malfunction of the sensor, the device may not be working
normally. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
■ Certification (Canada only)
This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001.
■ Customization
Setting of buzzer volume can be changed.

WARNING
■When using intuitive parking assist
Observe the following precautions to avoid an unexpected accident.
● Do not exceed the speed limit of 6 mph (10 km/h).
● The sensors’ detection areas and reaction times are limited. When moving
forward or reversing, check the areas surrounding the vehicle ( especially
the sides of the vehicle) for safety, and drive slowly, using t he brake to
control the vehicle’s speed.
● Do not install accessories within the sensors’ detection areas.

■Intelligent Clearance Sonar function while the Simple Advanced Parking
Guidance System is operating
While the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System is operating, if the sys-
tem detects an obstacle that could result in a collision, hybri d system output
restriction control and brake control of the Intelligent Cleara nce Sonar func-
tion are operated, regardless of whether the Intelligent Clearance Sonar func-
tion is on or off. ( P. 440)
● After the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function operates, operat ion of the
Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System is temporarily stopped, and
operation of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function is indica ted on the
multi-information display. ( P. 444)
● When operation of the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System i s
stopped 3 times by operation of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function, the
Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System is canceled.
● Once the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System becomes availa ble
after the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function is operated, a m essage
prompting you to shift is displayed on the multi-information di splay. Opera-
tion of the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System can be resu med by
shifting according to the prompt on the multi-information display and press-
ing the S-APGS switch ( P. 454) again.
■ Shifting while the Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System is operat-
ing
If the system determines that the drivers intends to move forward or in
reverse, assistance continues even if the drivers shifted before being
prompted to do so by the system. However, because driver operat ion differs
from the guidance provided by the system, the number of turning maneuvers
may increase.
■ Customization
Settings (e.g. Obstacle detection range) can be changed.

■Function summary
If a parking space can be detected, you will be guided forward until
you reach the assist control star ting position, and then the parallel
parking assist mode can be us ed. Furthermore, depending on the
parking space and other conditions, multi-turn maneuvering assi st
control is also prov ided if necessary.
Continue moving forward
with the vehicle parallel to
the curb or road, and stop so
that the center of the target
parking spot appears nearly
perpendicular to the vehicle.
Then press the S-APGS
switch 1 time to select the
parallel parking assist mode.
Travel straight ahead paral-
lel with the road or curb so
that the parking space is
detected.
A sound is issued and a display is shown to notify you when the
vehicle reaches a position wher e assist control can be used to
begin backing up from, and then when the shift position is
changed according to guidance provided by the system, steering
wheel auto oper ation begins.
If the detected parking space or road width (distance to the si de of the
road across from the parking space) is narrow, or if there are obstacles
in front of the vehicle, guidance will not be issued.
Parking is complete
This completes the assist mode. Depending on the condition of t he
parking space, guidance to starting points for moving forward and back-
ing up, as well as the steering wheel auto operation, are repea ted any
time multi-turn maneuvering is necessary following step from the
time the vehicle begins backing up until parking completes.

When the vehicle is almost entire ly within the target parking spot,
a high-pitched beep is emitted and the stop display is shown on
the display, stop the vehicle.
This completes the para llel parking assist mode.
● After stopping, feel free to maneuver the vehicle to reach the
desired parking spot.
● Be sure to back up while checking the area to the front and
rear of the vehicle direct ly and by using the mirrors.
■Parallel parking assist mode operating conditions
●In order to operate the parallel parking assist mode correctly, drive slowly (at
a speed at which the vehicle can be quickly stopped) parallel t o the road (or
shoulder) while maintaining a distance of approximately 3 ft. ( 1 m) to any
parked vehicles.
● The function cannot be used when the vehicle speed is approxima tely
19 mph (30 km/h) or higher.
● The front side sensors and rear side sensors are used to detect parked
vehicles and determine the parking spot. Therefore, when detection is not
possible ( P. 484), guidance is not issued.
● If there are no parked vehicles, the parking spot cannot be det ermined.
Therefore, the parallel parking assist mode cannot be operated.
● If unable to detect the environment surrounding the parking spa ce, the par-
allel parking assist mode may not be able to operate.
● Guidance will continue until the vehicle speed meets or exceeds approxi-
mately 19 mph (30 km/h) or the function is turned off using the S -APGS
switch.
■ Timing for pressing the S-APGS switch
In the following cases, the assist mode may also operate during the steps
taken to park using the parallel parking assist mode. However, in these
cases, conduct parking procedures according to the information on the multi-
information display.
● In step the S-APGS switch is pressed after already passing ove r the tar-
get parking spot.
If the vehicle is not stopped in step , pressing the S-APGS swi tch 1 time
while the vehicle is in motion allows you to select “Parallel P arking” and
proceed directly to step .
● The vehicle is moved up to the position in step without the S- APGS
switch being pressed. Then the S-APGS switch is pressed after having
changed the shift position to R.

depressing the brake pedal.
When this is done, a high-
pitched beep is emitted and
an indicator on the meter illu-
minates at the same time,
after which assist control will
start.
●When the steering wheel auto operation starts, the steering
wheel auto operation display ( P. 455) and assistance level
indicator ( P. 455) will be shown in the display area.
● To stop assist control, press the S-APGS switch.
● When the vehicle speed is too high, a sharp beeping sound is
emitted and assist c ontrol is stopped. (P. 478)
● If the space turns out to be too narrow after assist control
starts, a sharp beeping sound is emitted and assist control is
stopped.
When a beep sounds once and
the stop display ( P. 455) is
shown on the display, stop the
vehicle.
