PRIUS_OM_OM47F32E_(EE)
When the vehicle is almost entirely within the target parking spot,
a high-pitched beep is emitted and the stop display is shown on
the display, stop the vehicle.
This completes the parallel parking assist mode.
●After stopping, feel free to maneuver the vehicle to reach the
desired parking spot.
●Be sure to back up while checking the area to the front and
rear of the vehicle directly and by using the mirrors.
■Parallel parking assist mode operating conditions
●In order to operate the parallel parking assist mode correctly, drive slowly (at
a speed at which the vehicle can be quickly stopped) parallel to the road (or
shoulder) while maintaining a distance of approximately 1 m (3.3 ft.) to any
parked vehicles.
●The function cannot be used when the vehicle speed is approximately
30 km/h (19 mph) or higher.
●The front side sensors and rear side sensors are used to detect parked
vehicles and determine the parking spot. Therefore, when detection is not
possible (P. 439), guidance is not issued.
●If there are no parked vehicles, the parking spot cannot be determined.
Therefore, the parallel parking assist mode cannot be operated.
●If unable to detect the environment surrounding the parking space, the par-
allel parking assist mode may not be able to operate.
●Guidance will continue until the vehicle speed meets or exceeds approxi-
mately 30 km/h (19 mph) or the function is turned off using the S-IPA switch.
■Timing for pressing the S-IPA switch
In the following cases, the assist mode may also operate during the steps
taken to park using the parallel parking assist mode. However, in these
cases, conduct parking procedures according to the information on the multi-
information display.
●In step the S-IPA switch is pressed after already passing over the target
parking spot.
If the vehicle is not stopped in step , pressing the S-IPA switch 1 time
while the vehicle is in motion allows you to select “Parallel Parking” and
proceed directly to step .
●The vehicle is moved up to the position in step without the S-IPA switch
being pressed. Then the S-IPA switch is pressed after having changed the
shift position to R.

PRIUS_OM_OM47F32E_(EE)■Operation of the air conditioning system when the blower customization
is set to “ECO”
●In the “ECO” mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to
prioritize fuel efficiency:
• Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict heating/
cooling capacity
• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations:
• Adjust the fan speed
• Adjust the temperature setting
• Set the blower customization to “FAST” or “NORMAL” mode.
●When the driving mode is set to Eco driving mode, the fan speed setting
mode will be changed to “ECO” mode automatically. Even in this case, the
fan speed control mode can be changed by pressing . (P. 351)
■When the outside temperature falls to nearly 0C (32F)
The dehumidification function may not operate even when is pressed.
■Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let the fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
●In order to suppress odors that occur when the air conditioning system
starts, fresh air is automatically taken in when parked.
●To reduce potential odors from occurring, the start timing of the blower may
be delayed for a short period of time immediately after the air conditioning
system is started in automatic mode.
