■Detection range of the sen-
sorsApproximately 3.3 ft. (100
cm)
Approximately 4.9 ft. (150
cm)
Approximately 2.0 ft. (60 cm)
The diagram shows the detection
range of the sensors. Note that the
sensors cannot detect objects that
are extremely clos
e to the vehicle.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape of
the object, etc.
■Distance display
When an object is detected by a sensor, the approximate distance to
the object will be displayed on the multi-information display, naviga-
tion system (if equipped) or multimedia system (if equipped) sc reen.
(As the distance to the object becomes short, the distance segm ents
may blink.)
The images may differ from that shown in the illustrations.
 Approximate distance to object
• Front center sensor: 3.3 ft . (100 cm) to 2.0 ft. (60 cm)
• Rear center sensor : 4.9 ft. (150 cm) to 2.0 ft. (60 cm)

■Buzzer operation and dis-
tance to an object
A buzzer sounds when the sen-
sors are operating.
 The buzzer beeps faster as
the vehicle approaches an
object.
When the vehicle comes within approximately 1.0 ft.
(30 cm) of the object, the
buzzer sounds continuously.
 When 2 or more sensors
simultaneously detect a static
object, the buzzer sounds for
the nearest object.

operating, the buzzer will be
muted in some situations.
(automatic buzzer mute func-
tion)
■Muting the buzzer sound
●Automatic buzzer mute function
Even when the sensors are operat-
ing, the buzzer will be muted in the
following situations:
• The distance betw een the vehicle
and the detected object does not
become shorter (except when the
distance between the vehicle and
object is 1.0 ft. [30 cm] or less).
• Your vehicle is moving away from the object.
• There are no detectable objects
entering the path of your vehicle.
However, if another object is
detected or the situation changes
while the buzzer is muted, the
buzzer begins sounding again.
●To mute the buzzer sound
The buzzer can be temporarily
muted by pressing of the meter
control switches w hile a suggestion
that says mute is available is shown
on the multi-info rmation display.
●When the mute is canceled
Mute will be automat ically canceled
in the followin g situations.
• When the shift position is changed
• When the vehicle speed has reached or excee ded a certain
speed
• When the Intuitive parking assist is turned off once and turned on
again
• When the power switch is turned off once and tur ned to ON again
■Customization
The buzzer volume can be adjusted
on the multi-inform ation display.

PKSB (Parking Sup-
port Brake)*
The Parking Support Brake
system consists of the fol-
lowing functions that oper-
ate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such
as when parking. When the
system determines that the
possibility of a collision
with a detected object is
high, a warning operates to
urge the driver to take eva-
sive action. If the system
determines that the possi-
bility of a collision with a
detected object is extremely
high, the brakes are auto-
matically applied to help
avoid the collision or help
reduce the impact of the
collision.
PKSB (Parking Support
Brake) system

3645-5. Using the driving support systems
The Parking Support Brake can
be enabled/disabled on the
screen of the multi-information
display. All of the Parking Sup-
port Brake functions (static
objects and rear-crossing vehi-
cles) are enabled/disabled
simultaneously. (P.177)
When the Parking Support Brake is
disabled, the PKSB OFF indicator
(  P.163) illuminates on the multi-
information display.
To re-enable the system, select
on the multi-information display,
select and turn it on.
If the system is disabled, it will
remain off even if the power switch
is turned to ON after the power
switch has bee n turned off.
WARNING
■Limitations of the Parking
Support Brake system
Do not overly rely on the system,
as doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.
Always drive while checking the
safety of the su rroundings of the
vehicle.
Depending on the vehicle and
road conditions, weather, etc., the
system may not operate.
The detection capa bilities of sen-
sors and radars are limited.
Always drive while checking the
safety of the su rroundings of the
vehicle.
●The driver is solely responsible
for safe driving. Always drive
carefully, taking care to observe
your surroundings. The Parking
Support Brake system is
designed to provide support to
lessen the severity of collisions.
However, it may not operate in
some situations.
●The Parking Support Brake sys-
tem is not designed to stop the
vehicle completely. Addition-
ally, even if the system has
stopped the vehicle, it is neces-
sary to depress the brake pedal
immediately as brake control
will be canceled after approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
●Do not attempt to test the oper-
ation of the Parking Support
Brake system yourself such as
intentionally driving to a vehicle
or wall.
Depending on the situations,
the system may not operate
properly, possibly leading to an
accident.
NOTICE
■If “Parking Support Brake
Unavailable” is displayed on
the multi-information display
and the PKSB OFF indicator
illuminates
If this message is displayed
immediately after the power
switch is changed to ON, operate
the vehicle carefully, paying atten-
tion to your surroundings. It may
be necessary to drive the vehicle
for a certain amount of time
before the system returns to nor-
m a l . ( I f t h e s y s t e m d o e s n o t r e t u r n
to normal after dr iving for a while,
clean the sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumpers.)

If the hybrid system output
restriction control or brake con-
trol operates, a buzzer will
sound and a message will be
displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display, head-up display (if
equipped), navigation system (if
equipped) or multimedia sys-
tem (if equipped) screen, to alert
the driver.
Depending on the situation, hybrid
system output restriction control will
operate to either limit acceleration
or restrict output as much as possi-
ble.

tion control is operating

Acceleration greater than a certain
amount is restricted by the system.

If the Parking Support Brake
determines that a collision with a
detected object is possible, the
hybrid system output will be
restricted to restrain any
increase in the vehicle speed.
(Hybrid system output restriction
control: See figure 2.)
Additionally, if the accelerator
pedal continues to be
depressed, the brakes will be
applied automatically to reduce
the vehicle speed. (Brake con-
trol: See figure 3.)

■If the Parking Support Brake
has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to oper-
ation of the Parki ng Support Brake,
the Parking Suppor t Brake will be
disabled and the PKSB OFF indica-
tor will illuminate. If the Parking Sup-
port Brake operates unnecessarily,
brake control can be canceled by
depressing the brake pedal or wait-
ing for approximately 2 seconds for
it to automatically be canceled.
Then, the vehicle can be operated
by depressing the accelerator pedal.
■Re-enabling the Parking Sup-
port Brake
To re-enable the Parking Support
Brake when it is disabled due to
operation of the Parking Support
Brake, either enable the system
again ( P.364), or turn the power
switch off and then back to ON.
Additionally, if the object becomes
no longer in the traveling direction of
the vehicle or if the traveling direc-
tion of the vehicle changes (such as
changing from moving forward to
backing up, or from backing up to
moving forward) , the system will be
re-enabled automatically.

Unavailable” i s displayed on

●If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed simultaneously, a sen-
sor may be covered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. In this case,
remove the ice, s now, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the sys-
tem to normal. If this message is
shown even after removing dirt from the sensor, or shown when
the sensor was not dirty to begin
with, have the vehicle inspected at
your Toyota dealer.
●If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is
displayed simultaneously, 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 normal.

This function will operate in situ-
ations such as the following if an
object is detected in the travel-
ing direction of the vehicle.

objects)
*
If the sensors detect a static
object, such as a wall, in the
traveling direction of the
vehicle and the system
determines that a collision
may occur due to the vehi-
cle suddenly moving for-
ward due to an accidental
accelerator pedal opera-
tion, the vehicle moving the
unintended direction due to
the wrong shift position
being selected, or while
parking or traveling at low
speeds, the system will
operate to lessen the impact
with the detected static
object and reduce the
resulting damage.
