■If the Parking Support B rake function has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of the Parking Suppo rt Brake func-
tion, the Parking Support Brake system will be disabled and the PKSB OFF
indicator will illuminate. If the Parking Support Brake operate s unnecessarily,
brake control can be canceled by depressing the brake pedal or waiting for
approximately 2 seconds for it to automatically be canceled. Then, the vehicle
can be operated by depressing the accelerator pedal.
■ Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake system
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake system when it is disabl ed due to
operation of the Parking Support Brake function, either enable the system
again ( P. 361), or turn the engine switch off and then back to IGNITIO N ON
mode.
Additionally, if the object becomes no longer in the traveling direction of the
vehicle or if the traveling direction of the vehicle changes (such as changing
from moving forward to backing up, or from backing up to moving forward),
the system will be re-enabled automatically.
■ If “PKSB Unavailable” and “Park ing Assist Unavailable Clean Parking
Assist Sensor” are displayed on th e multi-information display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is illuminating
● A sensor may be covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. In this case, remove the
ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to normal. If this
message is shown even after removing dirt from the sensor, or s hown when
the sensor was not dirty to begin with, have the vehicle inspec ted at your
Toyota dealer.
● A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice melts, the system will ret urn to nor-
mal.
● Water may be continuously flowing over the sensor surface, such as in a
heavy rain. When the system determines that it is normal, the system will
return to normal.

NOTICE
■If “PKSB Unavailable” is displayed on the multi-information dis play
and the PKSB OFF indicator is illuminating
If this message is displayed immediately after the engine switch is changed
to ON, operate the vehicle carefully, paying attention to your surroundings.
It may be necessary to drive the vehicle for a certain amount of time before
the system returns to normal. (If the system is not return to n ormal after
driving for a while, clean the sensors and their surrounding area on the
bumpers.)

■The Parking Support Br ake function (static objects) will operate when
The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated
( P. 361, 365) and all of the following conditions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake system is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 10 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• There is an object in the traveling direction of the vehicle a nd approxi-
mately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away.
• The system determines that a stronger-than-normal brake operat ion is
necessary to avoid a collision.
● Brake control
• Engine output restriction control is operating.
• The system determines that an emergency brake operation is nec essary
to avoid a collision.
■ The Parking Support B rake function (static objects) will stop o perating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the following condit ions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake system is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.
• The object is no longer approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the
traveling direction of the vehicle.
● Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake system is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds elapse after the vehicle is stopped by brake
control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by b rake con-
trol.
• The object is no longer approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
■ Detection range of the Parking Support Brake function (static objects)
The detection range of the Parking Support Brake function diffe rs from the
detection range of the intuitive parking assist. ( P. 339)
Therefore, even if the intuitive parking assist detects an obje ct and provides a
warning, the Parking Support Brake function may not start opera ting.
■ Situations in which the syst em may not operate properly
P. 341
■ Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision

■The Parking Support Br ake function (rear-crossing vehicles) will operate
when
The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated
( P. 361, 365) and all of the following conditions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• Vehicles which are approaching from the right or left at the r ear of the
vehicle at a traveling speed of approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or more.
• The shift lever is in R.
• The system determines that a stronger than normal brake operat ion is
necessary to avoid a collision with an approaching vehicle.
● Brake control
• Engine output restriction control is operating.
• The system determines that an emergency brake operation is nec essary
to avoid a collision with an approaching vehicle.
■ The Parking Support Brake functi on (rear-crossing vehicles) will stop
operating when
The function will stop operating if any of the following condit ions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.
• A vehicle is no longer approaching from the right or left at t he rear of the
vehicle.
● Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds elapse after the vehicle is stopped by brake
control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by b rake con-
trol.
• A vehicle is no longer approaching from the right or left at t he rear of the
vehicle.
■ Detection area of the Parking Su pport Brake function (rear-crossing
vehicles)
The detection area of the Parking Support Brake function (rear- crossing vehi-
cles) differs from the detection area of the RCTA function ( P. 345).
Therefore, even if the RCTA function detects a vehicle and provides an alert,
the Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles) may not start
operating.
■ Situations in which the syst em may not operate properly
P. 351
■ Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision

Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to p revent it from freezing.
● To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
● Check for and remove any excess ic e or snow that may have accu-
mulated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.
