other barrier that opens and
closes
• When turning left/right and an oncoming vehicle, oncoming

crosses in front of the vehicle
• When attempting to turn left/right in front of an oncoming vehicle,

or bicycle
• When turning left/right and an
oncoming vehicle, oncoming

ately before entering the path of
the vehicle
• When turning left/right and an
oncoming vehicle turns left/right in
front of the vehicle
• When the steering wheel is oper- ated toward the path of an oncom-

• When there is an object moving above or under the road
■Situations in which the system
may not operate properly
●In certain situations, such as the
following, a detectable object may
not be detected by the front sen-
sors, and the system may not
operate properly:
• When a detectable object is
approaching your vehicle
• When your vehicle or a detectable object is wandering
• When a detectable object makes an abrupt maneuver (such as sud-
den swerving, acceleration or
deceleration)
• When suddenly approaching a detectable object
• When the detectable object is near a wall, fence, guardrail, man-
hole cover, steel plate on the road
surface, or another vehicle
• When there is a structure above a detectable object
• When part of a detectable object is hidden by another object (large
luggage, umbrella, guardrail, etc.)
• When multiple det ectable objects
are overlapping
• When a bright light, such as the
sun, is reflecting off of a detect-
able object
• When a detectable object is white
and looks extremely bright
• When the color or brightness of a detectable object causes it to
blend in with its surroundings
• When a detectable object cuts in
front of or suddenly emerges in
front of your vehicle
• When approaching a vehicle which is diagonal
• If a bicycle is a child sized bicycle,
is carrying a large load, is carrying

2624-5. Using the driving support systems
●If objects draw too close to the
sensor.
●When a pedestrian is wearing
clothing that does not reflect ultra-
sonic waves (ex. skirts with gath-
ers or frills).
●When objects that are not perpen-
dicular to the ground, not perpen-
dicular to the v ehicle traveling
direction, uneven, or waving are in
the detection range.
●Strong wind is blowing
●When driving in inclement weather
such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●When an object that cannot be
detected is betw een the vehicle
and a detected object
●If an object such as a vehicle,
motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian
cuts in front of the vehicle or runs
out from the side of the vehicle
●If the orientation of a sensor has
been changed due t o a collision or
other impact
●When equipment that may
obstruct a sensor is installed, such
as a towing eyelet, bumper pro-
tector (an additi onal trim strip,
etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●If the front of the vehicle is raised
or lowered due to the carried load
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a
stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or
is malfunctioning
●When a tire chains or compact
spare tire is used
■Situations in which the system
may operate even if there is no
possibility of a collision
In some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, the system may operate
even though there is no possibility of
a collision.
●When driving on a narrow road
●When driving towa rd a banner,
flag, low-hanging branch or boom
barrier (such as those used at rail-
road crossings, toll gates and
parking lots)
●When there is a ru t 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 driving 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 sandstorm
●When strong winds are blowing
●When vehicle horns, vehicle
detectors, motorcycle engines, air
brakes of large vehicles, the clear-
ance sonar of ot her vehicles or
other devices which produce ultra-
sonic waves are near the vehicle
●If the front of the v ehicle is raised
or lowered due to the carried load

3887-2. Steps to take in an emergency
4Tighten down the towing eye-
let securely using a wheel nut
wrench or hard metal bar.
5 Securely attach cables or
chains to the towing eyelet.
Take care not to damage the vehi-
cle body.
6Enter the vehicle being towed
and start the engine.
If the engine does not start, turn the
engine switch to ON.
7Shift the shift lever to N and
release the parking brake.
Turn automatic mode off. ( P.173)
When the shift lever cannot be
shifted: P. 1 6 9
■While towing
If the engine is not running, the
power assist for the brakes and
steering will not function, making
steering and braking more difficult.
■Wheel nut wrench
Wheel nut wrench is installed in lug-
gage compartment. ( P.406)
WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
■While towing
●When towing using cables or
chains, avoid sudden starts, etc.
which place excessive stress on
the towing eyelet, cables or
chains. The towing eyelet,
cables or chains may become
damaged, broken debris may hit
people, and cause serious dam-
age.
●Do not turn the engine switch
off.
There is a possibility that the
steering wheel is locked and
cannot be operated.
■Installing towing eyelets to
the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are
installed securely.
If not securely installed, towing
eyelets may come loose during
towing.
