2019 TOYOTA PROACE VERSO Owners Manual

248
Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen, the system assesses the driver's level of vigilance by identifying variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings.This system is particularly suited to fast roads (speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).
Driver Attention Alert
Depending on version, the "Driving time warning system" may be combined with the "Driver Attention Alert".
The system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.Do not drive if you are tired or taking medicines that can cause drowsiness.
Once the system considers that the behaviour of the vehicle suggests a certain level of fatigue or inattention by the driver, it triggers the first level of alert.
After three first level alerts, the system triggers a new alert with the message "Take a break!", accompanied by a more pronounced audible
signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road sur face or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
The following situations may interfere with operation of the system or prevent it working:- poor visibility (inadequate lighting of the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain, dense fog, ...),- dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light, ...),- windscreen area located in front of the camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged or covered by a sticker,- lane markings absent, worn, masked (snow, mud) or multiple
(roadworks, ...),- close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected),- roads that are narrow, winding, ...
The driver is then alerted by the message "Ta k e c a r e !", accompanied by an audible signal.

Blind spot monitoring system
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:- immediately, when being overtaken,- after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
The alert is given by a warning lamp which comes on in the door mirror on the side in question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:- all the vehicles must be moving in the same direction and on adjacent lanes,- the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),- when you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),- when a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),- the traffic must be flowing normally,- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being overtaken returns to the blind spot,- you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.The blind spot sensor system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

No alert will be given in the following situations:- in the presence of immobile objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs...),- with vehicles moving in the opposite direction,- driving on a winding road or in a sharp c o r n e r,
- when overtaking (or being overtaken by) a very long vehicle (lorry, coach...) which is at the same time detected at the rear in the blind spot angle and present in the driver's forward field of vision,- in very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorry or an immobile object,- when overtaking quickly.
The system is activated or deactivated via the vehicle configuration menu.

Operating fault
Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...).In particular, driving on a wet sur face or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle).In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
With the touch screen
In the Driving menu, activate/deactivate "Blind spot monitoring".In the event of a fault, these warning lamps flash.
The indicator lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.
The state of the system remains in memory on switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towbar approved by To y o t a .
High pressure jet washWhen washing your vehicle, do not place the tip of the lance within 30 cm
of the sensors as other wise there is a risk of damaging them.

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (examples: pedestrian, vehicle, tree, gate) which comes within the field of detection of sensors located in the bumper.Certain types of obstacle (examples: stake, roadworks cone) detected initially will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if they are located in blind spots in the sensors' field of detection.
Parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse g e a r.This is confirmed by an audible signal.The system is switched off when you come out of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
Rear parking sensors
This supplements the audible signal by displaying bars in the screen or the instrument panel which move progressively nearer to the vehicle. When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed.
Visual assistance
This system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The proximity information is given by an intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle becomes less than approximately thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.

253
Front parking sensors
As an addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).The front parking sensors are interrupted if the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are detected or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
With the audio system
Deactivation / Activation
Deactivation or activation of the system is done via the vehicle configuration menu.
The sound from the speakers (front or rear) indicates whether the obstacle is in front or behind.
The system will be automatically deactivated where a towbar or towbar-mounted bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar installed as recommended by a Toyota dealer).
In the "Personalisation-configuration" menu, activate/deactivate "Parking assistance".
With the touch screen
In the Driving menu, activate/deactivate "Parking sensors".

180° rear vision
This system allows the near surroundings of the vehicle to be viewed in the display screen using cameras located at the rear of the vehicle. The parking sensors in the rear and/or front bumper complete the information on the view from above the vehicle (right-hand part).In addition to the view from above the vehicle (right-hand part) several types of view can be displayed (left-hand part):- standard rear view,- 180° rear view,- reconstructed zoom rear view.
Principle of image
reconstruction
The system displays the contextual view (left-hand part) as well as the view from above the vehicle in its close surroundings.By default, automatic mode is activated.In this mode, the system chooses the best view to display (standard or zoom) according to the information received from the parking sensors.The 180° view is only available through the menus.
The display disappears above approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).The system is automatically deactivated about 7 seconds after coming out of
reverse or on opening a door or the boot.
This system is a visual aid and cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.The images provided by the cameras may appear distorted by the surroundings (exterior conditions, driving mode, ...).The presence of areas in shadow, bright sunlight, or poor lighting conditions may make the image dark and reduce contrast.
Using the rear camera, the system records the vehicle's surroundings during a manoeuvre. An image from above your vehicle in its close surroundings is reconstructed (represented between the blue brackets) in real time and as the manoeuvre progresses.This representation facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when parking and allows you to see all of the obstacles close to the vehicle.This reconstructed view is automatically erased if the vehicle remains stationary for too long.
