1824-5. Using the driving support systems
■Enabling/disabling the pre-colli-
sion system
The pre-collision system can be
enabled/disabled on ( P.81) of
the multi-information display.
The system is automatically enabled each
time the power switch is turned to ON
mode.
If the system is disabled, the PCS warn-
ing light will turn on and a message will
be displayed on the multi-information
display.
■Changing the pre-collision warn-
ing timing
The pre-collision warning timing can
be changed on ( P.81) of the
multi-information display.
The warning timing setting is retained
when the power switch is turned off. How-
ever, if the pre-collision system is disabled
and re-enabled, the operation timing will
return to the default setting (middle).
1 Early
2 Middle
This is the default setting.
3Late
■Operational conditions
The pre-collision system is enabled and the syst em determines that the possibility of a fron-
tal collision with a dete cted object is high.
WARNING
●When the tires are very worn
●When tires of a size other than speci-
fied are installed
●When tire chains are installed
●When a compact spare tire or an
emergency tire puncture repair kit is
used
●If equipment (snow plow, etc.) that
may obstruct the radar sensor or front
camera is temporarily installed to the
vehicle

cle may depart from its lane. Drive safely
by always paying careful attention to
your surroundings and operate the
steering wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle without relying solely on the func-
tions.
●When the follow-up cruising display is
displayed ( P.192) and the preced-
ing vehicle changes lanes. (Your vehi-
cle may follow the preceding vehicle

surrounding area is noisy, the volume of
the audio system volume is high, the air
conditioning system is being used, etc.
• If the temperature in the cabin is extremely high or low, the Center Dis-
play may not operate correctly.
*: If equipped
■Parking Support Brake function
(static objects)
Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect
static objects, such as a wall, in the
detection area when driving at a low
speed or backing up. ( P.235)
■Parking Support Brake function
(rear-crossing vehicles) (if
equipped)
Rear radar sensors are used to detect
approaching vehicles in the detection
area behind the vehicle when backing
up. ( P.241)
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 the possibility of a colli-
sion with a detected object or
pedestrian is high, a warning oper-
ates to urge the driver to take eva-
sive action. If the system
determines that the possibility 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 collision.

■The Parking Support Brake function
(static object) will operate when
The function will operate when the PKSB
OFF indicator is not illuminated or flashing
(  P.74, 75) 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.
• There is a static object in the traveling direction of the vehicle and 6 to 13 ft. (2
to 4 m) away.
• The Parking Support Brake determines that a stronger-than-normal brake oper-
ation is necessary to avoid a collision.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control
is operating.
• The Parking Support Brake determines that an immediate brake operation is
necessary to avoid a collision.
■Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects)
 P.233
■The Parking Support Brake function
(static objects) will stop operating when
The function will stop operating if any of the
following conditions are met:

WARNING
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclination of the
vehicle may prevent the sensors from
detecting objects correctly or cause the
system to not operate or operate unnec-
essarily.
■If the Parking Support Brake function
(static objects) operates unnecessar-
ily, such as at a railroad crossing
In the event that the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) operates
unnecessarily, such as at a railroad cross-
ing, brake control w ill be canceled after
approximately 2 seconds, allowing you
to proceed forward and leave the area,
brake control can also be canceled by
depressing the brake pedal. Depressing
the accelerator pedal after brake control
is canceled will allow you to proceed for-
ward and leave the area.
■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 mal-
functioning.
●When using a high pressure washer to
wash the vehicle, do not spray the sen-
sors directly, as doing so may cause a
sensor to malfunction.
●When using steam to clean the vehi-
cle, do not direct steam too close to
the sensors as doing so may cause a
sensor to malfunction.
■When to disable the Parking Support
Brake
In the following situations, disable the
Parking Support Brake as the system
may operate even though there is no
possibility of a collision.
●When inspecting the vehicle using a
chassis roller, chassis dynamo or free
roller
●When loading the vehicle onto a boat,
truck or other transport vessel
●If the suspension has been modified or
tires of a size othe r than specified are
installed
●If the front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered due to the carried load
●When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-
tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier,
or snow plow
●When using an automatic car wash
