●A sensor may be covered with
water drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc.
Remove the water drops, ice,
snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to
return the system to normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sen-
sor at low temperatures, a warn-
ing message may be displayed or
the sensor may not be able to
detect an object. Once the ice
melts, the system will return to
normal.
●If this message continues to be
displayed even after cleaning the
sensor, or is displayed even
though the sensor is clean, have
the vehicle inspected by your Toy-
ota dealer.
■If a 12-volt batte ry terminal has
been disconnected and recon-
nected
The system needs to be initialized.
To initialize the system, drive the
vehicle straight ahead for 5 seconds
or more at a speed of approximately
22 mph (35 km/h) or more.
This function will operate in situ-
ations such as the following if an
object is detected in the travel-
ing direction of the vehicle.
Parking Support Brake
function (static
objects)
If the sensors detect a static
object, such as a wall, in the
traveling direction of the
vehicle and the system
determines that a collision
may occur due to the vehi-
cle suddenly moving for-
ward 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 traveling at low
speeds, the system will
operate to lessen the impact
with the detected static
object and reduce the
resulting damage.

■The Parking Support Brake
function (static object) will
operate when
The function will op erate when the
PKSB OFF indicator is not illumi-
nated or flashing ( P.89, 504) and
all of the followin g conditions are
met:
●Hybrid system output restriction
control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approxi- mately 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• There is a static object in the trav- eling direction of the vehicle and
approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m)
away.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that a stronger-than-nor-
mal brake operation is necessary
to avoid a collision.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control is operating.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that an immediate brake
operation is necessary to avoid a
collision.
WARNING
●Do not subject the surrounding
area of the sensor to a strong
impact. If subjected to an
impact, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer. If the fr ont or rear
bumper needs to be
removed/installed or replaced,
contact your Toyota dealer.
●Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
●Do not attach a license plate
cover.
●Keep your tires properly
inflated.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclina-
tion of the vehicle may prevent
the sensors from detecting
objects correctly or cause the sys-
tem to not operate or operate
unnecessarily.
■If the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) oper-
ates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad crossing
In the event that the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects)
operates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad cross ing, brake con-
trol will be cancele d after approxi-
mately 2 seconds, allowing you to
proceed forward and leave the
area, brake control can also be
canceled by depressing the brake
pedal. Depressing the accelera-
tor pedal after brake control is
canceled will allow you to proceed
forward and leave the area.
■Notes when washing the vehi-
cle
Do not apply intensive bursts of
water or steam to the sensor
area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do
not spray the sensors directly,
as doing so may cause a sensor
to malfunction.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.
