4-5. Using the driving support systems
■The system can be operated when
●The power switch is in ON.
●Toyota parking assist-sensor function
is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about
10 km/h (6 mph).
●The shift lever is in other than P.
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed on the multi-information display
A sensor may be covered with water
drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc. Remove the water drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to nor-
mal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low temperatures, a warning message
may be displayed or the sensor may not be able to detect an object. Once the ice melts, the system will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed even if the sensor is clean, there may be a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are lim-ited to the areas around the vehicle’
front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur
during use. • Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the 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 short delay between
static object detection and display (warning buzzer sounds). Even at low speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within 30 cm (1.0 ft.) before the display is shown and the warning buzzer sounds.
• It might be difficult 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 to the buzzers of
other systems.
■Objects which the system 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
■Situations in which the system may
not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions 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, water drops 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.
●When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold.

Vehicles with panoramic view monitor
*: Automatic buzzer mute function is enabled. (P.282)
■Buzzer operation and dis-
tance to an object
A buzzer sounds when the sensors
are operating.
 The buzzer beeps faster as the
vehicle approaches an object.
When the vehicle comes within
approximately 30 cm (1.0 ft.) of
the object, the buzzer sounds
continuously.
 When 2 or more sensors simulta-
neously detect a static object,
the buzzer sounds for the near-
est object.
 Even when the sensors are oper-
ating, the buzzer will be muted in
some situations. (automatic
buzzer mute function)
■Adjusting the buzzer volume
The buzzer volume can be adjusted
on the multi-information display.
Use the meter control switches to
change settings. ( P.107, 113)

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
■Warning messages
The warning messages explained below
may differ from the actual messages according to operation conditions and vehicle specifications.
■Warning buzzer
A buzzer may sound when a message is displayed. The buzzer may not be audible if the
vehicle is in a noisy location or if the audio system volume is high.
■If “Engine Oil Level Low Add or Replace” is displayed
The engine oil level is low. Check the
level of the engine oil, and add if neces-
sary.
This message may appear if the vehicle is stopped on a slope. Move the vehicle
to a level surface and check to see if the message disappears.
■If “Hybrid System Stopped Steering Power Low” is displayed
This message is displayed if the hybrid system is stopped while driving.
When steering wheel operations are
heavier than usual, grip the steering wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■If “Hybrid System Overheated Out-
put Power Reduced” is displayed
This message may be displayed when driving under severe operating condi-
tions. (For example, when driving up a long steep hill.) Handling method: P. 4 8 1
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be
Protected Refrain from the Use of N Position” is displayed
This message may be displayed when
the shift lever is in N.
As the hybrid battery (traction battery) cannot be charged when the shift lever
is in N, shift the shift lever to P when the vehicle is stopped.
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be Protected Shift into P to Restart” is
displayed
This message is displayed when the hybrid battery (traction battery) charge
has become extremely low because the shift lever has been left in N for a certain amount of time.
When operating the vehicle, shift to P and restart the hybrid system.
■If “Shift to P Before Exiting Vehicle” is shown
Message is displayed when the driver’s door is opened without turning the power switch to OFF with the shift lever
in any position other than P. Shift the shift lever to P.
If a warning message is
displayed
The multi-information display
shows warnings for system
malfunctions and incorrectly
performed operations, and
messages that indicate a need
for maintenance. When a mes-
sage is displayed, perform the
appropriate corrective action
for the message.
If a warning message is dis-
played again after the appro-
priate actions have been
performed, contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
Additionally, if a warning light
comes on or flashes at the
same time that a warning mes-
sage is displayed, take the
appropriate corrective action
for the warning light. ( P.439)
