• When the radar sensor becomes sig- nificantly misaligned (If the orientation
of the radar sensor is shifted for any
reason, readjustment is required. Have the sensor adjusted at any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.)
• When a large amount of snow or ice
sticks to the rear bumper surface around the radar sensors
• When the vehicle is driven on a
snow-covered road or in an environ- ment in which there are no objects
around (such as in a desert) for a pro-
longed period of time • When the temperature around the
radar sensors increases excessively
due to long driving on uphill grades in the summer, etc.
• When the temperature around the
radar sensors becomes extremely low • When the vehicle battery voltage low-
ers
• When the vehicle voltage exceeds the battery voltage rating
●The BSD/RCTA will resume operation once these conditions are corrected,
and the BSD/RCTA OFF indicator will
disappear. However, if the BSD/RCTA OFF indicator appears for a prolonged
period of time, have the system
inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer as soon as
possible.
●The detectability of the radar sensors
is restricted. The BSD/RCTA detec- tion may be impair ed and the system
may not operate properly under the
following conditions.
• When the rear bumper around the radar sensors is distorted
• When ice, snow or mud adheres to
the rear bumper surface around the radar sensors
• When stickers, etc. are affixed on the
areas of the radar sensors on the rear bumper
• During adverse weather conditions
such as rain, snow or fog
• When driving on wet roads such as
snow-covered roads and through pud- dles
●The radar sensors may not detect or may have difficulty detecting the fol-
lowing vehicles and objects.
• Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri- ans, stationary objects on the road or
road side, etc.
• Vehicles with body shapes that the radar may not reflect (vehicles with
lower body height such as a trailer
with no cargo and sports cars) • Vehicles that are not approaching
your vehicle even though they are in
the detection area (either on a neigh- boring lane to the rear or beside your
vehicle when revers ing) (The system
determines the presence of approach- ing vehicles based on data detected
by the radar sensors.)
• Vehicles traveling at significantly dif- ferent speeds
• Vehicles driving in parallel at almost
the same speed as your vehicle for a prolonged time
• Oncoming vehicles
• Vehicles in a lane beyond the neigh- boring lane
• Vehicles travelling at a significantly
lower speed that you are trying to overtake
●On a road with extremely narrow lanes, the system may detect vehicles
driving in a lane next to the neighbor-
ing lane.
While the BSD/RCTA is active, the
following item(s) will operate to
alert the driver:
 The BSD/RCTA approach indica-
tor (when there are vehicles in

●In the following cases, turn off the BSD/RCTA system. The system may
not operate properly due to blocked
radar waves. • When towing the vehicle
• When a bicycle carrier or other item is
fitted to the rear of the vehicle • When using a chassis dynamometer
or free roller device, etc.
• When running the engine and making the wheels rotate while lifting up the
vehicle
●If the engine switch is turned to OFF,
the last known status of the system is
maintained. For example, if the engine switch is turned to OFF with the
BSD/RCTA deactivated, the
BSD/RCTA remains deactivated the next time the engine switch is turned
to ON.
The radar sensors, one on each
side of the vehicle, are mounted
inside the rear bumper.

Reverse Automatic Brak-
ing (RAB) system*
Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB) is a system designed to
help avoid collisions or reduce
collision damage when revers-
ing the vehicle. If a wall or an
obstacle is detected in the
reversing direction, the system
will notify the driver with a
warning sound and may acti-
vate the vehicle’s brakes auto-
matically.

●Data that has been modified so that
the user and vehicle cannot be identi- fied is provided to a research institu-
tion for statistical processing or similar
purposes.
The Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB) system will operate the fol-
lowing 2 functions using 4 sonar
sensors.
 Sonar Audible Alarm
The Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)
system detects objec ts rearward and
warns the driver by warning message
on the multimedia system screen and
warning beeps.
 Automatic Braking
The automatic braking detects objects
rearward and if there is a high risk of a
collision, the system decelerates the
vehicle and controls the braking to
reduce damage.
When reversing
When either strong automatic
braking or torque control is
applied to prevent collision (in
this case, short warning beeps or
continuous warning beeps will
sound)

WA R N I N G
●Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)
is not a system intended to replace
the driver’s responsibility to check
their surroundings for vehicles or obstacles to avoid a collision.
●The driver is responsible for driving safely. Before revers ing, be sure to
first depress the brake pedal and
visually check the surroundings.
●There are some cases in which the
vehicle cannot avoid collision, because the system operation has
limitations. The warning sound or
automatic braking may be delayed or may not operate at all even when
an obstacle is present.
●Make sure to set the Automatic
Braking to OFF when the vehicle is
on the free roller or on the chassis dynamometer. Otherwise, the vehi-
cle may move and it may cause an
accident.
●Make sure to set the Automatic
Braking to OFF when towing the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle may
move and it may cause an accident.
●The system is not designed to
detect people (including children),
animals or other moving objects.
●Depending on the vehicle condition
or the surrounding environment, the sonar sensor’s ability to detect
objects may become unstable.
