Driving
Support Brake function (static
objects) differs from the detection
range of the intuitive parking assist.
( P.361) Therefore, even if the
intuitive parking assist detects an
object and provides a warning, the
Parking Support Brake function
(static objects) may not start operat-
ing.
■Objects that the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static
objects) may not detect
The sensors may not be able to
detect certain objects, such as the
following:
●Pedestrian
●Cotton, snow, and other materials
that are poor reflectors of sonic
waves
●Objects which are not perpendicu-
lar to the ground, are not perpen-
dicular to the traveling direction of
the vehicle, are uneven or are
waving
●Low objects
●Thin objects such as wires,
fences, ropes and signposts
●Objects that are e xtremely close
to the bumper
●Sharply-angled objects
●Tall objects with upper sections
projecting outwards in the direc-
tion of your vehicle
■Situations in which the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) may not operate
When the shift lever is in N
■Intuitive parking assist buzzer
Regardless of whether the intuitive
parking assist syste m is enabled or
not ( P.358), if the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) is
enabled ( P.364), the front or rear
sensors detect an object and brake
control and hybrid system output
restriction control are performed, the
intuitive parking assist buzzer will
sound to notify the driver of the approximate distance to the object.
■Situations in wh
ich the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) may operate even if
there is no possibility of a colli-
sion
In some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, the Parking Support Brake
function (static obj ects) may operate
even though there is no possibility of
a collision.
