Blind Spot Monitoring
System
WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system includes sensors, placed on the sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of the potentially dangerous presence of another vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden from the driver's field of vision).
178
– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).– Oncoming traffic.– Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner.– When overtaking or being overtaken by a very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is detected in the rear blind spot but is also present in the driver’s front field of vision.– When overtaking quickly.– In very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorry or a stationary object.
Malfunction
If the event of malfunction, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
NOTIC E
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail, etc.).In particular, driving on a wet surface 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 correct operation of the system.
Distraction detection
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
Depending on version, the function consists of either the "Coffee Break Alert" system alone or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert" system.
WARNI NG
These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent the driver from falling asleep at the wheel. It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling tired.Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the Driving / Vehicle touch screen menu.The state of the system is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Coffee Break Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects that the driver has not taken a break after two hours of driving at a speed above 43 mph (70 km/h).This alert is issued via the display of a message encouraging the driver to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:– With the engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes.– The ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes.– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is opened.
NOTIC E
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 43 mph (70 km/h).

Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system (confirmed by an audible signal).The system is switched off when reverse gear is disengaged.
Audible assistance
The system signals the presence of obstacles which are both within the sensors’ detection zone and in the vehicle path defined by the direction of the steering wheel.
Depending on version, in the example shown, only the obstacles present in the shaded area will be signalled by the audible assistance.The proximity information is given by an intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle becomes less than about 30 cm (0 ft 11"), the audible signal becomes continuous.The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
NOTIC E
Adjusting the audible signalWith TOYOTA Connect Radio or TOYOTA Connect Nav, pressing this button opens the window for adjusting the volume of the audible signal.
Visual assistance
It supplements the audible assistance, without taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by displaying bars on the screen that represent the distance between the obstacle and the vehicle (white: more distant obstacles, orange: close obstacles, red: very close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger" symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
In 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 10 km/h (6 mph).The front parking sensors are interrupted if the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph).
NOTIC E
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle in relation to the vehicle, in the vehicle trajectory, in front or behind.

Parking space search
► You should drive at a distance of between 0.50 m and 1.50 m (1 ft 7" and 4 ft 11") from the row of parked vehicles, without ever exceeding 30 km/h (19 mph), until the system finds an available space.The parking space search is suspended at higher speeds. The function is automatically deactivated if the vehicle speed exceeds 50 km/h (31 mph).
NOTIC E
For "parallel" parking, the space must measure at least the length of your vehicle plus 0.60 m (1 ft 11").For "bay" parking, the space must be at least as wide as your vehicle plus 0.70 m (2 ft 3").
NOTIC E
If the parking sensors function has been deactivated in the Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu, it will be automatically reactivated when the system is activated.
When the system finds an available space, "OK" is displayed on the parking view, accompanied by an audible signal.
Preparing for the manoeuvre
► Move very slowly until the request to stop the vehicle is displayed: "Stop the vehicle“, accompanied by the “STOP” sign and an audible signal.Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions page is displayed on the screen.► To prepare for the manoeuvre, follow the instructions. The start of the manoeuvre is indicated by the "Manoeuvre under way" onscreen message and an accompanying audible signal. Reversing is indicated by this message: “Release the steering wheel, reverse”.The Top Rear Vision and the parking sensors are automatically activated to help you monitor the area immediately surrounding your vehicle during the manoeuvre.
During the manoeuvre
The system controls the vehicle’s steering. It gives instructions on the manoeuvring direction when starting "parallel" entry and exit parking manoeuvres, and for all "bay" entry manoeuvres.There instructions are displayed as a symbol accompanied by a message:"Reverse".
“Go forwards".
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these symbols:Manoeuvre in progress (green).
Manoeuvre cancelled or finished (red) (the arrows indicate that the driver must resume control of the vehicle).The maximum speeds during manoeuvres are indicated by these symbols:
77 km/h or 5 mph, for parking space entry.
55 km/h or 3 mph, for parking space exit.

Operating limits
– The system may suggest an inappropriate parking space (parking prohibited, work in progress with damaged road surface, location alongside a ditch, etc.).– The system may indicate that a space has been found but not offer it because of a fixed obstacle on the opposite side of the manoeuvre, which would not allow the vehicle to follow the necessary trajectory required for parking.– The system may indicate that a space has been found but the manoeuvre will not be triggered, because the width of the lane is insufficient.– The system is not designed to perform the parking manoeuvre on a sharp bend.– The system does not detect spaces that are much larger than the vehicle itself or that are delimited by obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences, etc.).– If the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the
vehicle towards the rear may interfere with the distance measurements.
WARNI NG
Do not use the function under the following exterior conditions:– Alongside a soft shoulder (e.g. ditch) or quay or on the edge of a drop.– When the road surface is slippery (e.g. ice).
