 P.285
Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing
vehicles)*
If a rear radar sensor detects a vehicle approaching from the
right or left at the rear of the vehicle and the system deter-
mines that the possibility of a collision is high, this functio n
will perform brake control to reduce the likelihood of an
impact with the approaching vehicle.
Examples of function operation
Types of sensorsWARNING
■To ensure the Parking Sup-
port Brake (rear-crossing
vehicles) can operate prop-
erly
Observe the following precautions
regarding the rear radar sensors
(  P.285). Failure to do so may
cause a sensor t o not operate
properly, and may cause an acci-
dent.

■The Parking Support Brake
function (rear-crossing vehi-
cles) will operate when
The function will operate when the
PKSB OFF indicato r is not illumi-
nated or flashing ( P.89, 91) and
all of the followin g conditions are
met:
●Hybrid system output restriction
control
• The Parking Support Brake is
enabled.
• The vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• Vehicles are approaching from the right or left at the rear of the vehi-
cle at a traveling speed of more
than approximately 5 mph (8
km/h)
• The shift lever is in R.
• The Parking Support Brake deter-
mines that a stronger than normal
brake operation is necessary to
avoid a collision with an approach-
ing vehicle.
●Brake control • Hybrid system output restriction
control is operating
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that an emergency brake
operation is necessary to avoid a
collision with an approaching vehi-
cle.
■The Parking Support Brake
function (rear-crossing vehi-
cles) will stop operating when
The function will stop operating if
any of the following conditions are
met:
●Hybrid system output restriction
control
• The Parking Support Brake is dis- abled.
• The collision becomes avoidable
with normal brake operation.
• A vehicle is no longer approaching from the right or le ft at the rear of
the vehicle.
●Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake is dis-
abled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was
stopped by brake control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by
brake control.
• A vehicle is no longer approaching from the right or le ft at the rear of
the vehicle.
■Detection area of the Parking
Support Brake function (rear-
crossing vehicles)
The detection area of the Parking
Support Brake function (rear-cross-
ing vehicles) differs from the detec-
tion area of the RCTA function
(  P.289). Therefore, even if the
RCTA function detects a vehicle
and provides an alert, the Parking
Support Brake function (rear-cross-
ing vehicles) may not start operat-
ing.
WARNING
●Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
●Do not replace a rear radar sen-
sor with a part o ther than a gen-
uine part.
●Do not damage the rear radar
sensors, and always keep the
radar sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumper
clean.
●If the area around a rear radar
sensor is subjected to an
impact, the system may not
operate properly due to a sen-
sor malfunction. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
●Observe the rear radar sensor
handling precautions. ( P.285)

WARNING
●Never depend on t he rear view
monitor system entirely when
backing up. The image and the
position of the guide lines dis-
played on the screen may differ
from the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would
when backing up any vehicle.
●Be sure to back up slowly,
depressing the brake pedal to
control vehicle speed.
●The instructions given are only
guide lines. When and how
much to turn the steering wheel
will vary according to traffic con-
ditions, road surface condi-
tions, vehicle condition, etc.
when parking. It is necessary to
be fully aware o f this before
using the rear view monitor sys-
tem.
●When parking, be sure to check
that the par king space will
accommodate your vehicle
before maneuveri ng into it.
●Do not use the rear view moni-
tor system in the following
cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or emer- gency tires
• When the back door is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or
slopes
●In low temperatures, the screen
may darken or the image may
become faint. The image could
distort when the vehicle is mov-

and using the mirrors before
proceeding.
●If the tire sizes are changed, the
position of the fixed guide lines
displayed on the screen may
change.
●The camera uses a special lens.
The distances between objects
and pedestrians that appear in
the image displayed on the

The parking assist monitor is a
supplemental device intended to
assist the driver when backing
up. When backing up, be sure to
visually check all around the
vehicle both directly and using
the mirrors before proceeding. If
you do not, you may hit another
vehicle, and could possibly
cause an accident.
Pay attention to the following
precautions when using the
parking assist monitor.
Toyota parking assist
monitor*
The parking assist monitor
assists the driver by dis-
playing an image of the view
behind the vehicle while
backing up, for example
while parking.
When the display is
changed to the wide rear
view mode, a wider lateral
view behind the vehicle will
be displayed.

●Be sure to back up slowly,
depressing the brake pedal to
control vehicle speed.
●If you seem likely to hit nearby
vehicles, obstacles, people or
mount the shoulder, depress
the brake pedal to stop the vehi-
cle.
●The instructions given are only
guidelines. When and how
much to turn the steering wheel
