Change the shift lever to R.
Assume an ordinary posture for backing up, rest your hands
lightly on the steering wheel without applying any force, direc tly
confirm the safety of the area to the rear and around the vehic le,
confirm that there are no obstacles in the parking space, and
slowly back up while adjusting your speed by depressing the
brake pedal.
● When the vehicle cannot be cleanly entered within the target
parking spot on the first try and multi-turn maneuvering is nec -
essary, proceed to step .
● When multi-turn maneuvering is not necessary, proceed to
step .
When a level beep is emitted
and the stop display
(P. 493) is shown on the
display, stop the vehicle.
Change the shift lever to D, S (M20A-FXS engine) or B
(2ZR-FXE engine).
When you would like to end assist control at your current posit ion,
change the shift lever to P.
Assume an ordinary driving posture, rest your hands lightly on
the steering wheel without applying any force, directly confirm
the safety of the area to the front and around the vehicle and
slowly proceed forward while adjusting your speed by depressing
the brake pedal.

Depending on the condition of the parking space, steps to may
need to be repeated.
When the vehicle is almost entirely within the target parking s pot,
a high-pitched beep is emitted and the stop display is shown on
the display (P. 493), stop the vehicle.
This completes the perpendicular parking assist mode.
● For safety, the buzzer sounds slightly before the vehicle is
completely entered within the target parking spot. Further-
more, at that point, system operation will also finish. Firmly
hold the steering wheel and slowly back up while adjusting
your speed by depressing the brake pedal, to reach the
desired parking spot.
● Be sure to back up while checking the area to the front and
rear of the vehicle directly and by using the mirrors.

■Perpendicular parking assist mode operating conditions
● In order to operate the function correctly, drive slowly (at a speed at which
the vehicle can be quickly stopped). Come to a full stop so tha t the center of
the parking space is nearly perpendicular to the vehicle, and t hen operate
the S-IPA switch.
● The function cannot be used when the vehicle speed is approximately
30 km/h (19 mph) or higher.
● The front side sensors and rear side sensors are used to detect parked
vehicles and determine the parking spot. Therefore, when detect ion is not
possible ( P. 528), guidance is not issued.
● If there are no parked vehicles, the parking spot cannot be determined.
Therefore, the perpendicular parking assist mode cannot be oper ated.
● If unable to detect the environment surrounding the parking space, the per-
pendicular parking assist mode may not be able to operate.
■ Tips for using the perpendicular parking assist mode
● Depending on the condition of the park-
ing space, if there is not enough space
in front of the vehicle required to perform
the parking operation, the target parking
spot may not be reachable.
Intended parking spot
Wal l
Leave a gap of approximately 1 m
(3.3 ft.) from any parked vehicles and
approach the target parking spot. If
the gap between your vehicle and any
parked vehicles is too large, the front
side sensors and rear side sensors
may not be able to detect the parked
vehicles.
Stop so that the center of the target
parking spot is perpendicular to the
vehicle. Furthermore, only push the
S-IPA switch when the vehicle is at a
complete stop.

NOTICE
●If the road surface has any dips or inclines, the target parking spot cannot
be correctly set. Therefore, the vehicle may be parked at an an gle or may
deviate from the parking spot. In these cases, do not use the p erpendicu-
lar parking assist mode.
● When parking in a narrow space, the vehicle will come close to adjacent
vehicles. If it seems the vehicle may make contact, stop the ve hicle by
depressing the brake pedal.
● It may not be possible to detect objects that are low to the ground. Directly
confirm the safety of your surroundings and, if it seems the ve hicle may
make contact with an obstacle, stop the vehicle by depressing t he brake
pedal.
● Depending on the surrounding environment, such as other parked vehi-
cles, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may deviate from the park-
ing spot. Manually adjust vehi cle alignment as necessary.

■When the operation is canceled
MessageSituation/Handling method
“Park Assist Cancelled”
While assist control is operating, the driver
changes the shift lever to P or operates the
S-IPA switch.

“Wrong Direction”
When assist control starts, the vehicle pro-
ceeds in a direction opposite to the guidance.
Follow the guidance provided by the
system to proceed forward.
“Cannot Reach Desired
Position”
The maximum number of movements for
multi-turn maneuvering is reached during
assist control, or the target parking spot can-
not be reached due to the control being used
on a road with steep grade.
Follow the assist control guidance and
use the system in a wide space that
does not have a steep grade.
