QToyota parking assist-sensor can be operated when
O The engine switch is in the “ON” position (vehicles without smart entry &
start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem).
O Front corner sensor:
• The shift lever is in other than P.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
O Rear corner and rear center sensors:
The shift lever is in R.
Q Sensor detection information
O The sensor’s detection areas are limited to the areas around the vehicle’s
bumper.
O Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
O Detection may be impossible if the objects draw too close to the sensor.
O There will be a short delay between object detection and display. Even at
low speeds, there is a possibility that the object will come within the sensor’s
detection areas before the display is shown and the warning beep sounds.
O Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when
approached, even if they have been detected once.
O 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.
Q Objects which the system may not properly detect
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay partic-
ular attention to the following objects:
O Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
O Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
O Sharply-angled objects
O Low objects
O Tall objects with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your
vehicle
O Moving objects such as people or animals
People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
Q Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect the
ability of the sensor to correctly detect objects. Particular instances where this
may occur are listed below.
O There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor. (Wiping the sensors will resolve this
problem.)

WARNING
QTRC/A-TRC/VSC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRC/A-TRC/VSC system is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be
lost.
Q Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
O Do not overly rely on the hill-start assist control. The hill-start assist control
may not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
O Unlike the parking brake, the hill-start assist control is not intended to hold
the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use
the hill-start assist control to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so
may lead to an accident.
Q When the TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control is activated
The slip indicator flashes. Always drive carefully.
Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the
indicator flashes.
Q When the TRC/A-TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driving
force, do not turn the TRC/A-TRC/VSC/Trailer Sway Control systems off
unless necessary.
Q Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern and
total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the
recommended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, TRC, A-TRC, VSC, Trailer Sway Control, hill-start assist control
and downhill assist control systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
Q Handling of tires and the suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect
the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.

Q System malfunction
In the following cases, have your vehicle checked by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
O The downhill assist control system indicator does not come on when the
engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without smart entry &
start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem).
O The downhill assist control system indicator does not come on when the
“DAC” switch is pressed.
O The slip indicator comes on.
WARNING
QWhen using downhill assist control system
O Do not rely overmuch on the downhill assist control system. This function
does not extend the vehicle’s performance limitations. Always thoroughly
check the road conditions, and drive safely.
O Vehicles with manual transmission: Drive in a low gear. Driving in a high
gear when using downhill assist control system may cause the engine to
stall, which may lose the brake effectiveness and lock the tires, resulting in
an accident.
O Vehicles with manual transmission: On a steep slope, use the engine brak-
ing efficiently. If the vehicle is driven in N or with the clutch pedal
depressed on a steep slope, the load on the brake increases and con-
trolling the vehicle speed may be impossible, resulting in an accident.
Q The system may not operate on the following surfaces, which may lead
to an accident causing death or serious injury
O Slippery surfaces such as wet or muddy roads
O Icy surface
O Unpaved roads
