WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
There is a limit to the degree of recog- nition accuracy and control perfor-
mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for paying
attention to the vehicle’s surroundings and driving safely.
■To ensure the system can oper-ate properly
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehi- cle being unable to be driven safely and possibly cause an accident.
●Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
●Do not attach a sticker or install an electronic component, such as a
backlit license plate (especially fluo- rescent type), fog lights, fender pole or wireless antenna near a radar
sensor.
●Do not subject the surrounding area of the sensor to a strong impact. If subjected to an impact, have the
vehicle inspected by your any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer. If the front or rear bumper needs to be removed/installed or replaced, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do n ot m od i fy, d is a sse mb l e o r p ai n t the sensors.
●Do not attach a license plate cover.
●Keep your tires properly inflated.
■When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the
function as it may operate even though there is no possibility of a colli-sion.
●Failing to observe the warnings above.
●A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension, etc.) is
installed.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray the sensors directly, as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too close to the sensors as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunction.

●The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
●The shift lever is in other than P.
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on the multi-information
display
A sensor may be covered with water drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc. Remove the
water drops, ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to nor-mal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low temperatures, a warning message may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice melts, the system will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed even
if the sensor is clean, there may be a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are lim-
ited to the areas around the vehicle’ front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur during use.• Depending on the shape of the object
and other factors, the detection dis- tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if static objects draw too close to the sensor.• There will be a short delay between
static object detection and display (warning buzzer sounds). Even at low speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within 30 cm (1.0 ft.)
before the display is shown and the
warning buzzer sounds. • It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system
or air flow noise of the air conditioning system.• It may be difficult to hear the sound of
this system due to the buzzers of other systems.
■Objects which the system may not be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections pro-jecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the sur-
rounding environment may affect the ability of a sensor to correctly detect objects. Particular instances where this
may occur are listed below.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice
on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.) In especially cold weather, if a sensor
is frozen the sensor display may be displayed abnormally, or objects, such as a wall, may not be detected.
●When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold.

■The Parking Support Brake func- tion (static object) will operate
when
The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated or
flashing ( P.92, 441) and all of the fol- lowing conditions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction con-trol• The Parking Support Brake is
enabled. • The vehicle speed is approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.
• There is a static object in the traveling direction of the vehicle and approxi-mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that a stronger-than-normal brake operation is necessary to avoid
a collision.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction con- trol is operating.• The Parking Support Brake deter-
mines that an immediate brake opera- tion is necessary to avoid a collision.
■The Parking Support Brake func-tion (static objects) will stop oper-
ating when
The function will stop operating if any of the following conditions are met:
●Hybrid system output restriction con-
trol • The Parking Support Brake is dis-abled.
• The system determines that the colli- sion has become avoidable with nor-mal brake operation.
• The static object is no longer approxi- mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away from the vehicle or in the traveling direction
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. • The static object is no longer approxi-mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away from
the vehicle or in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
■Detection range of the Parking Sup-port Brake function (static objects)
The detection range of the Parking Sup- port Brake function (static objects) dif-fers from the detection range of the
Toyota parking assist-sensor. ( P.280) Therefore, even if the Toyota parking assist-sensor detects an object and pro-
vides a warning, the Parking Support Brake function (static objects) may not start operating.
■Toyota parking assist-sensor
buzzer
Regardless of whether the Toyota park- ing assist-sensor function is enabled or
not ( P.276), if the Parking Support Brake function (static objects) is enabled ( P.292), the front or rear sensors
detect an object and brake control and hybrid system output restriction control are performed, the Toyota parking
assist-sensor buzzer will sound to notify the driver of the approximate distance to the object.

WARNING
●The Advanced Park is a system which provides assistance in park-
ing in a set parking space. Depend- ing on the condition of the road surface or the vehicle, the distance
between the vehicle and a parking space, etc., it may not be possible to detect a parking space or the
system may not be able to provide assistance to the point the vehicle is fully parked.
●The Advanced Park is a system which supports the driver when
parking and leaving a parking space. While checking the safety of the area around the vehicle, make
sure to depress the brake pedal as necessary to slow or stop the vehi-cle.
●This system will guide the vehicle to appropriate positions for changing
the direction of travel, however, if you feel that the vehicle is approaching too close to an adja-
cent parked vehicle at any time, depress the brake pedal and change the shift position. However,
if this is performed, the number of times the vehicle changes direction may increase, and the vehicle may
be parked at an angle.
