is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about
10 km/h (6 mph).
●The shift lever is in other than P.

displayed on the multi-information display
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 nor-
mal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low temperatures, a warning 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 a warning message is displayed even if the sensor is clean, there may be a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are lim-ited to the areas around the vehicle’
front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur
during use. • Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.• Detection may be impossible if static
objects draw too close to the sensor. • There will be a short delay between
WARNING
●Do not subject the radar sensor or its surrounding area to a strong
impact. If the radar sensor, front grille, or front bumper has been subjected to a strong impact, have
