■The Parking Support Brake func- tion (static object) will operate
when
The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated or
flashing ( P.81, 83) and all of the fol-
lowing conditions are met:
●Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is ena- bled.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 15
km/h (9 mph) or less. • There is a static object in the traveling
direction of the vehicle and approxi-
mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away. • The Parking Support Brake deter-
mines that a stronger-than-normal
brake operation is necessary to avoid a collision.
●Brake control• Engine output restriction control is
operating
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that an immediate brake opera-
tion is necessary to avoid a collision.
■The Parking Support Brake func-
tion (static objects) will stop oper- ating when
The function will stop operating if any of
the following conditions are met:
●Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disa-
bled. • The system determines that the colli-
sion has become avoidable with nor-
mal brake operation. • The static object is no longer approxi-
mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away from
the vehicle or in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
●Brake control• The Parking Support Brake is disa-
bled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was
stopped by brake control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by brake con-
trol.
• The static object is no longer approxi-
mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away from the vehicle or in the traveling direction
of the vehicle.
■Detection range of the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects)
The detection range of the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects) dif-
fers from the detection range of the Toyota parking assist-sensor. ( P.268)
Therefore, even if the Toyota parking
assist-sensor detects an object and pro- vides a warning, the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) may not
start operating.

●Make sure to observe the following
precautions regarding the exit par-
allel parking assist mode. Exit parallel parking assist mode is
a function used when departing
from a parallel parking spot. How- ever, this function may not be usa-
ble if obstacles or people are
detected in front of the vehicle. Only
use this function when departing from a parallel parking spot. In the
event that the steering control oper-
ates, either turn the system off using the S-IPA switch or operate
the steering wheel to stop the con-
trol.
●If exit parallel parking assist mode
is mistakenly used in the following situations, the vehicle may make
contact with an obstacle.
The departure function is operated in a direction where an obstacle is
present, but the obstacle is not
detected by the side sensors (situa- tions such as when the vehicle is
directly beside a pole).
●Observe the following precautions,
as the sensors may stop function-
ing properly which may lead to an accident.
• Do not subject the sensor to strong
shocks by hitting it, etc. The sen- sors may not function properly.
• When using a high-pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do not
spray water directly on the sensors.
Equipment may not function prop- erly if subjected to an impact from
strong water pressure. If the vehicle
bumper strikes something, equip- ment may not operate properly due
to a sensor malfunction. Have the
vehicle inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●In the following situations, the sen- sors may not operate normally and
may lead to an accident. Drive
carefully.
• Obstacles cannot be detected in
the side areas until a scan of the
side areas is completed. (P.265)
• Even after the scan of the side
areas is completed, obstacles such as other vehicles, people or ani-
mals that approach from the sides
cannot be detected.
• The sensor is frozen (if it thaws, the
system returns to normal). A warning message may display at
particularly low temperatures due to
the sensor freezing and it may not detect parked vehicles.
• The sensor is blocked by some- one’s hand.
• The vehicle is tilted a large amount.
• The temperature is extremely hot or
cold.
• The vehicle is driven on undulating
roads, slopes, gravel roads, in areas with tall grass, etc.
• An ultrasonic wave source is nearby, such as the horn or sensors
of another vehicle, a motorcycle
engine or the air brake of a large vehicle.
• Heavy rain or a water strikes the vehicle.
• The angle of the sensor may be deviated when assist control starts
even if there is a parked vehicle in
the target parking spot. Have the
vehicle inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
• Do not install any accessories
within the sensor detection range.

Maintenance and care
Rotate the tires in the order shown.
Front
To equalize tire wear and help extend
tire life, Toyota recommends that tire
rotation is carried out approximately
every 10000 km (6000 miles).
When rotating front and rear tires which
have different tire inflation pressures,
do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system afte r tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure warning system that uses
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters to detect low tire infla-
tion pressure before serious prob-
lems arise.
If the tire pressure drops below a
predetermined level, the driver is
warned by a warning light.
( P. 4 7 5 )
■Routine tire inflation pressure
checks
The tire pressure warning system does
not replace routine tire inflation pressure
checks. Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as part of your routine of daily
vehicle checks.
■Situations in which the tire pres-
sure warning system may not oper-
ate properly
●In the following cases, the tire pres-
sure warning system may not operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are
used. • A tire has been replaced with a tire
that is not an OE (Original Equipment)
tire. • A tire has been replaced with a tire
that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. are equipped. • An auxiliary-supported run-flat tire is
equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on the
vehicle, particularly around the wheels
NOTICE
●Be sure to use proper tire inflation
pressure. If tires are under-inflated,
they may be damaged more severely.
●Avoid potholes, uneven pavement, curbs and other road hazards. Fail-
ure to do so may lead to severe tire
and wheel damage.
■If tire inflation pressure of each
tire becomes low while driving
Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined.
■Driving on rough roads
Take particular care when driving on
roads with loose surfaces or potholes.
These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing the
cushioning ability of the tires. In addi-
tion, driving on rough roads may cause damage to the tires them-
selves, as well as the vehicle’s
wheels and body.

or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is extremely higher than the specified
level.
• If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are
used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is not
registered in the tire pressure warning
computer.
●Performance may be affected in the
following situations. • Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that gen- erates strong radio waves or electrical
noise.
• When carrying a portable radio, cellu- lar phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication device.
●When the vehicle is parked, the time
taken for the warning to start or go off
could be extended.
●When tire inflation pressure declines
rapidly for example when a tire has burst, the warning may not function.
■Warning performance of the tire
pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning system will change in accordance with
driving conditions. For this reason, the
system may give a warning even if the tire pressure does not reach a low
enough level, or if the pressure is higher
than the pressure th at was adjusted to when the system was initialized.
