■The rear camera detection function is
operational when
●The power switch is in ON mode.
●RCD function is on.
●The shift lever is in R.
■Setting the buzzer volume
The buzzer volume can be adjusted on the
multi-information display. ( P.215)
The RCD buzzer sound is linked with the
RCTA buzzer.
■If “Rear Camera Detection Unavailable
Remove the Dirt of Rear Camera” is
displayed on the mu lti-information dis-
play
A rear camera lens may be dirty or covered
with snow or ice. In such cases, if it is
removed from the rear camera lens, the
system should return to normal. (It may be
necessary to drive the vehicle for some time
before the system returns to normal.)
■If “Rear Camera Detection Unavail-
able” is displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display
●If this message is di splayed after the 12-
volt battery has been disconnected and
reconnected, fully turn the steering wheel
to the left and then the right on level
ground.
●If this message is displayed only when the
shift lever is in R, the rear camera lens
may be dirty. Clean the rear camera lens.
■Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
●Some pedestrians, such as the following, may not be detected by the rear camera
detection function, preventing the func-
tion 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
• People riding a bicycle, skateboard, or other light vehicle
• Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing
such as a rain coat, long skirt, etc., making
their silhouette obscure
• Pedestrians whose body is partially hid-
den by an object, such as a cart or
umbrella
• Pedestrians which are obscured by dark-
ness, such as at night
●In some situations, such as the following,
pedestrians may not be detected by the
rear camera detection function, prevent-
ing the function from operating properly:
• When backing up in inclement weather
(rain, snow, fog, etc.)
• When the rear camera is obscured (dirt,
snow, ice, etc. are at tached) or scratched
• When a very bright light, such as the sun, or the headlights of another vehicle,
shines directly into the rear camera
• When backing up in a place where the surrounding brightness changes sud-
denly, such as at the entrance or exit of a
garage or underground parking lot
• When backing up in a dim environment
such as during dusk or in an underground
parking lot
●Even though there are no pedestrians in
the detection area, some objects, such as
the following, may be detected, possibly
causing the rear camera detection func-
tion to operate.
• Three dimensional objects, such as a
pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked vehi-
cle
• Moving objects, such as a car or motor- cycle
• Objects moving toward your vehicle when backing up, such as flags or pud-
dles (or airborne matter, such as smoke,
steam, rain, or snow)
• Cobblestone or gravel roads, tram rails, road repairs, white lines, pedestrian

■Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) (if equipped)
A rear camera sensor is used to detect
pedestrians in the detection area
behind the vehicle when backing up.
(  P.245) The Parking Support Brake can be
enabled/disabled on the multi-infor-
mation display. All of the Parking Sup-
port Brake functions (static objects,
rear-crossing vehicles, and rear
pedestrians) are enabled/disabled
simultaneously.
Use the meter control switches to
enable/disable the parking support
brake. (
P.82)
1 Press or to select .
2 Press or to select and
then press “OK”.
When the Parking Support Brake is dis-
abled, the PKSB OFF indicator ( P.75)
illuminates on the multi-information dis-
play.
To re-enable the system, select on the
multi-information display, select and
turn it on. If the system is disabled, it will
remain off even if the power switch is
turned to ON mode after the power switch
has been turned off.
If the hybrid system output restriction con-
trol or brake control operates, a buzzer
will sound and a message will be displayed
on the Center Display and multi-informa-
tion display, to alert the driver. On vehicles
with a head-up display, the head-up display
will display the same message as the multi-
information display.

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 collis ions. 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 after driving for a while,
clean the rear camera lens.)

If the Parking Support Brake determines that a collision with a detected object or
pedestrian is possible, the hybrid system output will be restricted to restrain any
increase in the vehicle speed. (Hybrid system output restriction control: See figure
2 below.)
Additionally, if the accelerator pedal contin ues to be depressed, the brakes will be
applied automatically to re duce the vehicle speed. (Brake control: See figure 3
below.)

■If the Parking Support Brake has oper-
ated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of
the Parking Support Brake, the Parking
Support Brake will be disabled and the
PKSB OFF indicator will illuminate. If the
Parking Support Brake operates unneces-
sarily, brake control can be canceled by
depressing the brake pedal or waiting for
approximately 2 seconds for it to automati- cally be canceled. Then, the vehicle can be
operated by depressing the accelerator
pedal.
■Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake
when it has been disabled due to system
operation, perform an y of the following
operations. At this time, the PKSB OFF

●If this message is displayed only when the
shift lever is in R, the rear camera lens
may be dirty. Clean the camera lens. If
this message is disp layed when the shift
lever is in any position other than R, a
sensor on the front or rear bumper may
be dirty. Clean the sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumpers.
●Initialization may no t have been per-
formed after a 12-volt battery terminal
was disconnected and reconnected. Ini-
tialize the system. ( P.234)
If this message continues to be displayed
even after init ialization, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”
and “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean
Parking Assist Sensor” are displayed on
the multi-informatio n display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is flashing
●A sensor may be covered with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. In this ca se, remove the ice,
snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return
the system to normal. If this message is
shown even after remo ving dirt from the
sensor, or shown when the sensor was
not dirty to begin with, have the vehicle
inspected at your Lexus dealer.
●A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice
melts, the system will return to normal.
●Water may be continuo usly flowing over
the sensor surface, such as in a heavy
rain. When the system determines that it
is normal, the system will return to nor-
mal.
■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.
Additionally, for vehicles with the Parking
Support Brake function, turn the steering
wheel fully to the left and right with the vehi-
cle stopped.

*:If equipped
When a pedestrian is detected behind the vehicle while backing up, the brake
pedal is not depressed or is depressed late.
Displays a message to urge the driver
to take evasive action when a pedes-
trian is detected in the detection area
behind the vehicle. (A message will

Parking Support Brake function (rear pedestrians)*
If the rear camera sensor detects a pedestrian behind the vehicle while back-
ing up and the system determines that the possibility of colliding with the
detected pedestrian is high, a buzzer will sound. If the system determines that
the possibility of colliding with the dete cted pedestrian is extremely high, the
brakes will be applied automatically to he lp reduce the impact of the collision.
