2021 TOYOTA SIENNA HYBRID parking sensors

3204-5. 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.112)
When the Parking Support Brake is
disabled, the PKSB OFF indicator
( P.95) illuminates on the multi-
information display.
To re-enable the system, select
on the multi-inform ation 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 been turned off.
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 or audio system
screen to alert the driver.
On vehicles with head-up dis-
play, the head-up display will
display the same message as
the multi-information display.
Depending on the situation, hybrid
system output restriction control will
operate to either limit acceleration
or restrict output as much as possi-
ble.
 Hybrid system output restric-
tion control is operating

Driving
*: If equipped
This function will operate in situations such as the following if an
object is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
■When traveling at a low speed and the brake pedal is not
depressed, or is depressed late
Parking Support Brake fu nction (static objects)*
If the sensors detect a static object, such as a wall, in the t rav-
eling direction of the vehicle and the system determines that a
collision may occur due to the vehicle suddenly moving for-
ward due to an accidental accelerator pedal operation, 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.
Examples of function operation

Types of sensorsWARNING
■To ensure the Parking Sup-
port Brake can operate prop-
erly
Observe the following precautions
regarding the sensors ( P.308).
Failure to do so may cause a sen-
sor to not operate properly, and
may cause an accident.
●Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.

WARNING
●Do not replace a sensor with a
part other than a genuine part.
●Do not subject a sensor or its
surrounding area to a strong
impact.
●Do not damage the sensors,
and always keep them clean.
●If the area around a radar sen-
sor is subjected to an impact,
the system may not operate
properly due to a sensor mal-
function. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclina-
tion of the vehicle may prevent
the sensors from detecting
objects correctly or cause the sys-
tem to not operate or operate
unnecessarily.
■If the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) oper-
ates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad crossing
In the event that the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects)
operates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad cross ing, brake con-
trol will be cancele d after approxi-
mately 2 seconds, allowing you to
proceed forward and leave the
area, brake control can also be
canceled by depressing the brake
pedal. Depressing the accelera-
tor pedal after brake control is
canceled will allow you to proceed
forward and leave the area.
■Notes when washing the vehi-
cle
Do not apply intensive bursts of
water or steam to the sensor
area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do
not spray the sensors directly,
as doing so may cause a sensor
to malfunction.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.
■When to disable the Parking
Support Brake
In the following situations, disable
the Parking Suppor t Brake as the
system may opera te even though
there is no possibility of a colli-
sion.
●When inspecting the vehicle
using a chassis roller, chassis
dynamo or free roller
●When loading the vehicle onto a
boat, truck or other transport
vessel
●If the suspension has been
modified or tires of a size other
than specified are installed
●If the front of the vehicle is
raised or lowered due to the
carried load
●When equipment that may
obstruct a sensor is installed,
such as a bumper protector (an
additional trim strip, etc.), hitch-
mounted bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When using an automatic car
wash

■Detection range of the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects)
The detection range of the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) differs from the detection
range of the intuiti ve parking assist.
(  P.313) 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 re flectors 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

Regardless of whether the intuitive
parking assist syste m is enabled or
not ( P.310), if the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) is
enabled ( P.320), 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 distanc e to the object.
■Situations in which 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 objects) may operate
even though there is no possibility of
a collision.
