Driving
■If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is
displayed on the multi-information display (vehicles with PKSB)
Water may be continuously flowing over
the sensor surface, such as in a heavy rain. When the system determines that it
is normal, the system will return to nor-
mal.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detec tion areas are lim-
ited to the areas aro und the vehicle’s front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the object
and other factors, t he detection dis- tance may shorten, or detection may
be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if static objects draw too close to the sensor.
• There will be a shor t delay between
static object detec tion and display (warning buzzer sounds). Even at low
speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come withi n 25 cm (9.8 in.) before the display is shown and the
warning buzzer sounds.
• It might be difficu lt to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system
or air flow noise of the air conditioning
system. • It may be difficult to hear the sound of
this system due t o the buzzers of
other systems.
■Conditions under which the func -
tion may no t function correctly
Certain vehicle c onditions and the sur-
rounding environment may affect the
ability of a sensor to correctly detect objects. Particular instances where this
may occur are listed below.
●There is dirt, snow or ice on a sensor.
(Cleaning the sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor
is frozen the sensor display may be displayed abnormally, or objects, such
as a wall, may not be detected.
●A sensor is covered in any way.
●When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on grav el, or on grass.
●The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to vehicle horns, motorcycle engines,
air brakes of large vehicles, or other
loud noises pro ducing ultrasonic waves.
●There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensors in the
vicinity.
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●If a sensor is hit by a large amount of
water, such as when driving on a
flooded road.
●If the vehicle is significantly tilted.
●The vehicle is approaching a tall or
curved curb.
●If objects draw too close to the sensor.
■Objects which may not be properly
detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular
attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that
absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections pro- jecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle

4927-1. Maintenance and care
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the
vehicle, such as on the floor, on the rear seats, in the DC/DC Converter
air intake vent, junction box or in
