toll gates and parking lots)
●When there is a rut or hole in the surface
of the road
●When driving on a metal cover (grating),
such as those used for drainage ditches
●When driving up or down a steep slope
●If a sensor is hit by a large amount of
water, such as when driving on a flooded
road
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on
a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will
resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray
or heavy rain
●When driving in inclement weather such
as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●When strong winds are blowing
●When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors,
motorcycle engines, air brakes of large
vehicles, the clearance sonar of other
vehicles or other devices which produce
ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle
●If the front of the vehi cle is raised or low-
ered due to the carried load
●If the orientation of a sensor has been
changed due to a collision or other
impact
●The vehicle is approaching a tall or
curved curb
●Driving close to columns (H-shaped steel
beams, etc.) in multi-story parking
garages, construction sites, etc.
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable
manner, such as when the vehicle has
been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass
●When a tire chains, compact spare tire or
an emergency tire punc ture repair kit is
used
■Detection range of the sensors
Approximately 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 close to

PKSB (Parking Support
Brake)
*
The Parking Support Brake system
consists of the following functions
that operate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such as when
parking. When the system deter-
mines that the possibility of a colli-
sion with a detected object is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action. If the system
determines that the possibility of a
collision with a detected object is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applie d to help avoid
the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of the sys-
tem
Do not overly rely on the system, as
doing so may lead to an accident.
●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 system is
not designed to stop the vehicle com-
pletely. Additionally, even if the system
has stopped the vehicl e, it is necessary
to depress the brake pedal immedi-
ately as brake control will be canceled
after approximately 2 seconds.
●It is extremely dangerous to check the
system operations by intentionally
driving the vehicle into the direction of
a wall, etc. Never attempt such actions.
■When to disable the Parking Support
Brake
In the following situations, disable the
Parking Support Brake as the system
may operate even though there is no
possibility of a collision.
●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 othe r 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 towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-
tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When using automatic car washing
devices
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a sta-
ble manner, such as when the vehicle
has been in an accident or is malfunc-
tioning

up to moving forward)
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”
is displayed on th e multi-information
display and the PKSB OFF indicator is
flashing
If this message is displayed only when the
shift lever is in any po sition other than R, a
sensor on the front or rear bumper may be
dirty. Clean the sensors and their surround-
ing area on the bumpers.
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”
and “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean
Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on
the multi-information display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is flashing
●A sensor may be cove red with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the system 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 by your
Lexus dealer.
●A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice
melts, the system wi ll return to normal.
●Water may be continuo usly 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.

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 function (static objects)*
If the sensors detect a static object, such as a wall, in the travelling direction of
the vehicle and the system determines that a collision ma y occur due to the
vehicle suddenly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal oper-
ation, the vehicle moving the unintended direction due to the wrong shift lever
position, 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.
