Intuitive parking assist
: If equipped
The distance from your vehicle to nearby objects when parallel
parking or maneuvering into a garage is measured by the sen-
sors and communicated via the multi-information display and a
buzzer. Always check the surro unding area when using this sys-
tem.

■ Muting the buzzer sound
●To mute the buzzer sound
The buzzer can be temporarily muted by pressing of the meter c on-
trol switches while an object detection display is shown on the multi-infor-
mation display.
● To cancel the mute
Mute will be automatically cancelled in the following situation s.
• When the shift position is changed
• When the vehicle speed exceeds a certain speed.

■Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision
In some situations, such as the following, the system may opera te even
though there is no possibility of a collision.
● When driving toward a banner, flag, low-hanging branch or boom barrier
(such as those used at railroad crossings, toll gates and parking lots)
● When there is a rut or hole in the surface of the road
● When driving on a metal cover (grating), such as those used for drainage
ditches
● When driving up or down a steep slope
● If a sensor is hit by a large amount of water, such as when dri ving on a
flooded road
● There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors
will resolve this problem.)
● A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain
● When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandst orm
● When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of
large vehicles, the clearance sonar of other vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle
● If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the car ried load
● If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collis ion or other
impact
● The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb
● Driving close to columns (H-shaped steel beams, etc.) in multi- story parking
garages, construction sites, etc.
● If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as whe n the vehicle
has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●
When driving on a narrow road
●When strong winds are blowing

WARNING
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor a rea.
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 malfunction.
● When using an automatic car wash, disable the intuitive parking assist.

The RCTA functions when your vehicle is in reverse. It can dete ct
other vehicles approaching from the right or left rear of the v ehicle. It
uses radar sensors to alert the driver of the other vehicle’s existence
through flashing the outside rear view mirror indicators and so unding
a buzzer.
■RCTA icon displa y (if equipped)
When a vehicle approaching from the right or left at the rear o f the
vehicle is detected, the following will be displayed on the aud io sys-
tem screen.

■Conditions under which the system will not detect a vehicle
The RCTA function is not designed to detect the following types of vehicles
and/or objects:
● Vehicles approaching from directly behind
● Vehicles backing up in the parking space next to your vehicle
*
●Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehicles and similar stationar y objects*
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.*
●Vehicles moving away from your vehicle
● Vehicles approaching from the parking spaces next to your vehic le
*
●The distance between the sensor and approaching vehicle gets to o close
*: Depending on the conditions, detection of a vehicle and/or obj ect may
occur.
■ Situations in which the syst em may not operate properly
The RCTA function may not detect vehicles correctly in the foll owing situa-
tions:
● When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
● When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc., is covering the sensor or surrounding
area on the position above the rear bumper
● When driving on a road surface that is wet with standing water during bad
weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
● When multiple vehicles are approaching with only a small gap be tween
each vehicle
● When a vehicle is approaching at high speed
● When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicy cle carrier, or
snow plow
●
Vehicles that the sensors cannot detect
due to obstructions

■Parking Support Brake f unction (static objects)
Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect static objects, such as a wall,
in the detection area when driving at a low speed or backing up .
(  P. 348)
■Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles)
Rear radar sensors are used to detect approaching vehicles in t he
detection area behind the v ehicle when backing up. (P. 352)
PKSB (Parking Suppor t Brake)
: If equipped
The Parking Support Brake system consists of the following
functions that operate when dr iving at a low speed or backing
up, such as when parking. When the system determines that the
possibility of a collision with a detected object is high, a wa rning
operates to urge the driver to take evasive action. If the syst em
determines that the possibility of a collision with a detected
object is extremely high, the br akes are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or help reduce the impact of the colli -
sion.
