The Parking Support Brake can
be enabled/disabled on the
multi-information display. All of
the Parking Support Brake func-
tions (static objects and
rear-crossing vehicles) are
enabled/disabled simultane-
ously.
Use the meter control switches
to enable/disable the parking
support brake. (P.112)
1 Select of the multi-infor-
mation display and then
press .
2 Press or to select
and then press .
When the Parking Support Brake is
disabled, the PKSB OFF indicator
( P.84) illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster.
To re-enable the system when it was disabled, select on the
multi-information
display, select
and turn it on. If the system is dis-
abled, it will remain off even if the
power switch is turned to ON after
the power switch has been turned
off.
If the hybrid system output restric-
tion control or brake control oper-
ates, a buzzer will sound and a
message will be displayed on the
audio system screen and
multi-information display, to alert
the driver.
Depending on the situation, hybrid
system output restriction control will
operate to either limit acceleration
or restrict output as much as possi-
ble.

tion control is operating

Acceleration greater than a certain
amount is restric ted by the system.

OFF indicator is flashing
If this message is displayed
immediately after the power
switch is changed to ON, operate
the vehicle carefully, paying atten-
tion to your surroundings. It may
be necessary to drive the vehicle
for a certain amount of time
before the system returns to nor-
mal. (If the system is not return to
normal after driving for a while,
clean the sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumpers.)

Brake) on (P.299)
●The shift lever is in P.
●Drive with no opera tion targets in
the traveling direction of the vehi-
cle
●Change the traveling direction of
the vehicle
■If “PKSB Unavailable” is dis-
played on the multi-information
display and the PKSB OFF indi-
cator is flashing
●If this message is displayed only
when the shift lever is in any posi-
tion other than R, a sensor on the
front or rear bumper may be dirty.
Clean the sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumpers.
■If “PKSB Unavailable” and
“Parking Support Brake
Unavailable Remove the Dirt of
Rear Camera” is displayed on
the multi-information display
and the PKSB OFF indicator is
flashing
●A sensor may be covered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. 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 sen-
sor, or shown when the sensor
was not dirty to begin with, have
the vehicle inspected by your Toy-
ota dealer.
●A sensor may be frozen. Once the
ice melts, the sys tem will return to
normal.
●Water may be continuously flow-
ing over the sensor surface, such
as in a heavy rain. When the sys-
tem determines that it is normal,
the system will re turn to normal.
■If a 12-volt battery terminal has
been disconnected and recon-
nected
The system needs to be initialized.
To initialize the system, drive the
vehicle straight ahead for 5 seconds
or more at a speed of approximately 22 mph (35 km/h) or more.

*: If equipped
This function will operate in situations such as the following if an
object is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
■When traveling at a low speed and the brake pedal is not
depressed, or is depressed late
Parking Suppor t Brake function (static objects)*
If the sensors detect a static object, such as a wall, in the t rav-
elling direction of the vehicle and the system determines that
a collision may occur due to the vehicle suddenly moving for-
ward due to an accidental accelerator pedal operation, the
vehicle moving the unintended direction due to the wrong
shift lever position, or while parking or traveling at low
speeds, the system will operate to lessen the impact with the
detected static object and reduce the resulting damage.

cles) will operate when
The function will op erate when the
PKSB OFF indicator is not illumi-
nated or flashing ( P.83, 84) and all
of the following conditions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction
control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approxi- mately 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• Vehicles which are approaching
from the right or left at the rear of
the vehicle at a traveling speed of
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or
more.
• The shift lever is in R.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that a stronger than normal
brake operation is necessary to
avoid a collision with an approach-
ing vehicle.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction
control is operating.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that an emergency brake
operation is necessary to avoid a
collision with an approaching vehi-
cle.
Parking Suppor t Brake function (rear-crossing
vehicles)*
If a rear radar sensor detects a vehicle approaching from the
right or left at the rear of the vehicle and the system deter-
mines that the possibility of a collision is high, this function
will perform brake control to reduce the likelihood of an
impact with the approaching vehicle.
