■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.77, 79) and
all of the followin g conditions are
met:
●Engine 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
• Engine output restri ction 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:
●Engine 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.

■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.271). 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.

Parking Support Brake func-
tion (rear-crossing vehicles)
will not detect a vehicle

●Stationary objects
●When a sensor or the area around
a sensor is extremely hot or cold
●If the rear bumper is covered with
ice, snow, dirt, etc.
●When it is raining heavily or water
strikes the vehicle
●When the detecti on area of a
radar sensor is obstructed by an
adjacent vehicle
