Driving

● The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen, the screen may show an
abnormal display, or objects may not be detected.
● The sensor is covered in any way.
● On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass
● When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of
large vehicles, the clearance sonar of ot her vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle.
● A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
● If objects draw too close to the sensor.
● When a pedestrian is wearing clothing that does not reflect ultrasonic waves
(ex. skirts with gathers or frills).
● When objects that are not perpendicular to the ground, not perpendicular to
the vehicle 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 between 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 to a collision or other
impact.
● When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional 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 tire chains, a compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair
kit are used.
● When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold

■ 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 operate 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 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 vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of
large vehicles, the clearance sonar of ot her 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 carried load.
● If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision 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.
● When driving on a narrow road.
● When strong winds are blowing.

660What to do if... (Troubleshooting)
HILUX_OM_OM0K789E_(EE)
●Vehicles without smart entry & start system:
It is locked to prevent theft of the vehicle if the key is removed from the
engine switch. ( P. 2 2 1 )
●Vehicles with smart entry & start system and manual transmission:
It is locked automatically to prevent theft of the vehicle. ( P. 227)
●Is the window lock switch pressed?
The power window except for the one at the driver’s seat cannot be oper-
ated if the window lock switch is pressed. ( P. 184)
●The auto power off function will be operated if the vehicle is left in ACCES-
SORY or IGNITION ON mode (the engine is not operating) for a period of
time. ( P. 226)
●The seat belt reminder light is flashing
Are the driver and passengers wearing the seat belts? ( P. 570)
●The parking brake indicator light is on
Is the parking brake released? ( P. 246)
Depending on the situation, other types of warning buzzer may also sound.
( P. 566, 575)
●Did anyone inside the vehicle open a door during setting the alarm?
The sensor detects it and the alarm sounds. ( P. 115)
To stop the alarm, turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart
entry & start system) or start the engine.
The steering wheel cannot be turned after the engine is
stopped
The windows do not open or close by operating the power
window switches (if equipped)
The engine switch is turned off automatically
(vehicles with smart entry & start system)
A warning buzzer sounds during driving
An alarm is activated and the horn sounds (if equipped)
