■Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision
Instances of the RCTA function unnecessary detecting a vehicle and/or object
may increase in the following situations:
●When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When there are spinning objects near your vehicle such as the fan of an air
conditioning unit
●When water is splashed or sprayed a sprinkler
●Moving objects (flags, exhaust fumes, large rain droplets or snowflakes, rain
water on the road surface, etc.) ●When the parking space faces a street
and vehicles are being driven on the
street
●When the distance between your vehicle
and metal objects, such as a guardrail,
wall, sigh, or parked vehicle, which may
reflect electrical waves toward the rear
of the vehicle, is short
●When a vehicle passes by the side of
your vehicle
●When a detected vehicle turns while
approaching the vehicle

3344-5. Using the driving support systems
●When the distance between your vehicle and a guardrail, wall, etc., that
enters the detection area is short
●Gratings and gutters
●When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold
●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

■Parking Support Brake function (static objects)
Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect static objects, such as a wall,
in the detection area when driving at a low speed or backing up.
(P. 348)
■Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles)
Rear radar sensors are used to detect approaching vehicles in the
detection area behind the vehicle when backing up. (P. 352)
PKSB (Parking Suppor t Brake)
: If equipped
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 determines that the
possibility of a collision 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 applied to
help avoid the collision or help reduce the impact of the colli-
sion.

The Parking Support Brake can be enabled/disabled on the multi-
information display. All of the Parking Support Brake functions (static
objects and rear-crossing vehicles) are enabled/disabled simultane-
ously.
Use the meter control switches to enable/disable the parking support
brake. (P. 109, 126)

When the Parking Support Brake is disabled, the PKSB OFF indicator illu-
minates.
To re-enable the system when it was disabled, select on the multi-infor-
mation display, select and then “On”. If disabled using this method, the
system will not be re-enabled by turning the power switch off and then to
ON mode.

■If the Parking Support Brake function has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of the Parking Support Brake func-
tion, the Parking Support Brake system will be disabled and the PKSB OFF
indicator will illuminate. If the Parking Support Brake operates unnecessarily,
brake control can be canceled by depressing the brake pedal or waiting 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 Support Brake system
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake system when it is disabled due to
operation of the Parking Support Brake function, either enable the system
again (P. 341), or turn the power switch off and then back to ON mode.
Additionally, if the object becomes no longer in the traveling direction of the
vehicle or if the traveling direction 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.
■If “PKSB Unavailable” and “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean Parking
Assist Sensor” are displayed on the multi-information display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is illuminating
●A sensor may be covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. In this case, 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 at your
Toyota dealer.
●A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice melts, the system will return to nor-
mal.
●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.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of the system
Do not overly rely on the system, as doing so may lead to an accident.
Always drive while checking the safety of the surroundings of the vehicle.
Depending on the vehicle and road conditions, weather, etc., the system
may not operate.
The detection capabilities of sensors and radars are limited. Always drive

●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive carefully, tak-
ing care to observe your surroundings. The Parking Support Brake system
is designed to provide support to lessen the severity of collisions. How-
ever, it may not operate in some situations.
●The Parking Support Brake system is not designed to stop the vehicle
completely. Additionally, even if the system has stopped the vehicle, it is

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 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 towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When using automatic car washing devices
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehi-
cle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When a tire chains or compact spare tire is used

NOTICE
■If “PKSB Unavailable” is displayed on the multi-information display
and the PKSB OFF indicator is illuminating
If this message is displayed immediately after the power switch is turned to
ON mode, operate the vehicle carefully, paying attention to your surround-
ings. It may be necessary to drive the vehicle for a certain amount of time
before the system returns to normal. (If the system is not return to normal
after driving for a while, clean the sensors and their surrounding area on the
bumpers.)

The system 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 Suppor t Brake function (static
objects)

: If equipped
If a collision with an object may occur due to the vehicle sud-
denly moving forward 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 trav-
eling at low speeds, the sensors detect objects, such as a wall,
in the traveling direction of the vehicle, and the system operates
to lessen an impact with an object and reduce the resulting dam-
age.
