■Buzzer operation and dis-
tance to an object
A buzzer sounds when the sensors
are operating.
The buzzer beeps faster as the
vehicle approaches an object.
When the vehicle comes within
approximately 30 cm (1.0 ft.) of
the object, the buzzer sounds
continuously
When 2 or more sensors simulta-
neously detect a static object,
the buzzer sounds for the near-
est object.
Even when the sensors are oper-
ating, the buzzer will be muted in
some situations. (automatic
buzzer mute function)
■Muting the buzzer sound (vehicles
with PKSB)
●Automatic buzzer mute function
Even when the sensors are operating,
the buzzer will be muted in the following
situations:
• The distance between the vehicle and
the detected object does not become
shorter (except when the distance
between the vehicle and object is 30 cm [1.0 ft.] or less).
• Your vehicle is moving away from the
object.
• There are no detectable objects enter-
ing the path of your vehicle.
However, if another object is detected or
the situation changes while the buzzer is
muted, the buzzer begins sounding
again.
●To mute the buzzer sound
The buzzer can be temporarily muted by
pressing of the meter control
switches while a suggestion that says
mute is available is shown on the multi-
information display.
●When the mute is canceled

■Re-enabling the Parking Support
Brake
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake
when it is disabled due to operation of
the Parking Support Brake, either
enable the system again (P.404), or
turn the power switch off and then back
to ON. 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 mov-
ing forward), the system will be re-
enabled automatically.
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavail-
able” is displayed on the multi-
information display and the PKSB
OFF indicator illuminates
●If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed simultaneously, 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 remov-
ing dirt from the sensor, or shown
when the sensor was not dirty to begin
with, have the vehicle inspected at
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
●If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is dis-
played simultaneously, 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 nor-
mal.

This function will operate in situa-
tions such as the following if an
object is detected in the traveling
direction of the vehicle.
Parking Support Brake
function (static objects)
*
If the sensors detect a static
object, such as a wall, in the
traveling direction of the vehi-
cle and the system determines
that a collision may occur due
to the vehicle suddenly moving
forward due to an accidental
accelerator pedal operation,
the vehicle moving the unin-
tended direction due to the
wrong shift position being
selected, 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.

• The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.• A vehicle is no longer approaching
from the right or left at the rear of the vehicle.
●Brake control• The Parking Support Brake is dis-abled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was stopped by brake control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by brake con-trol.
• A vehicle is no longer approaching from the right or left at the rear of the vehicle.
■Detection area of the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles)
The detection area of the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear-crossing vehi- cles) differs from the detection area of the RCTA function ( P.392). Therefore,
even if the RCTA function detects a vehicle and provides an alert, the Park-ing Support Brake function (rear-cross-
ing vehicles) may not start operating.

●Hybrid system output (engine speed) is restricted when a certain amount of
particulate matter accumulates, how- ever, it is possible to drive the vehicle unless the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on.
●Particulate matter can accumulate
more quickly if the vehicle is fre- quently driven short trips or at low speeds, or if the hybrid system is reg-
ularly started in an extremely cold environment. Excessive accumula-
tion of particulate matter can be pre- vented by periodically driving long distances continuously with intermit-
tent releasing of the accelerator pedal, such as when driving on highways and freeways.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on or “Hybrid System Mal- function Output Power Reduced Visit Your Dealer” is shown on the
