• No system malfunctions are detected. ( P. 271)
■ Temporary cancellation of functions
When the operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be tempo-
rarily canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again, oper-
ation of the function is automatically restored. ( P. 269)
■ Lane departure alert function
The warning buzzer may be difficult to hear due to external noi se, audio play-
back, etc.

The shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
● The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detection
distance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
• Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sen sor.
• There will be a short delay between obstacle detection and dis play. Even
at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the obstacle will c ome within the
sensor’s detection areas before the display is shown and the wa rning
beep sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected for colli-
sion when approached, even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of audio system or air
flow noise of air conditioning system.
■ When the system malfunctions
●If “Clean park sonar” is shown
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. Al so, due to
the sensor being frozen at low temperatures, a malfunction disp lay may
appear or an obstacle may not be detected. If the sensor thaws out, the sys-
tem should return to normal.
● If “Check park sonar system” is shown
Depending on the malfunction of the sensor, the device may not be working
normally. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.

4RUNNER (U)
■Starting the engine when t he battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic .
■ Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long t ime, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
■ When recharging or replacing the battery
●Vehicles with a smart key system: In some cases, it may not be possible to
unlock the doors using the smart key system when the battery is dis-
charged. Use the wireless remote control or the mechanical key to lock or
unlock the doors.
● The engine may not start on the first attempt after the battery has recharged
but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
● Vehicles with a smart key system: The engine switch mode is memorized by
the vehicle. When the battery is reconnected, the system will r eturn to the
mode it was in before the battery was discharged. Before disconnecting the
battery, turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the engine switch was in before the battery dis-
charged, be especially careful when reconnecting the battery.
● Make sure that the key is not inside the vehicle when rechargin g or replac-
ing the battery. The key may be locked in the vehicle if the al arm is acti-
vated. ( P. 80)
