Object detected by side sensors or side cameras
1 The vehicle is stopped and objects along the sides of the vehicle are not
detected.
2 Objects are detected as the vehicle is moving.
3 Even though the objects are outside of the detection area of the side
sensors or side cameras, a warning is displayed and a buzzer so unds.
■Object warning function operating
conditions
●The Advanced Park is operating.
●The vehicle moves about 7 m (23.0 ft.) after the hybrid system is started.
●The R shift position is selected.
●After the D shift position has been selected, the vehicle has moved 7 m (23.0 ft.) or less.
●Camera switch has been pressed and the panoramic view monitor screen is
displayed.
●The front or rear sensor detects a sta-
tionary object.
■Detection of objects along the sides of the vehicle
●Objects along the sides of the vehicle are not instantaneously detected. The location of objects in relation to the
vehicle is estimated after they are first detected by the front or rear side sen-sors, or side cameras. Therefore, after
the power switch is changed to ON, even if an object is along the side of the vehicle, it may not be detected
until the vehicle has been driven a small amount and the side sensors or
side cameras completely scan the
areas along the sides of the vehicle.
●If a vehicle, person, animal, etc., is
detected by a side sensors or side cameras, but then leaves the detec-tion area of the side sensors or side
cameras, the system will assume the object has not moved.

In situations such as the following, the function may not operate correctly,
possibly leading to an accident. Pro- ceed carefully.

■When “RCTA Unavailable See Owner’s Manual” is shown on the multi-information display
The sensor voltage has become abnor- mal, or water, snow, mud, etc., may be built up in the vicinity of the sensor area
of the position above the rear bumper. ( P.271)
Removing the water, snow, mud, etc.,
from the vicinity of the sensor area should return it to normal. Also, the sen-sor may not function normally when
used in extremely hot or cold weather.
■When “RCTA Malfunction Visit Your Dealer” is shown on the multi-infor-mation display
There may be a sensor malfunction or misaligned. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer.

■Operation of the RCTA func-
tion
The RCTA function uses radar sen-
sors to detect vehicles approaching
from the right or left at the rear of
the vehicle and alerts the driver of
the presence of such vehicles by
flashing the outside rear view mirror
indicators and sounding a buzzer.

■Muting a buzzer temporarily
A mute button will be displayed on the
multi-information display when a vehi-
cles or an object is detected. To mute
the buzzer, press .
The buzzers for the RCTA function and
Toyota parking assist-sensor will be
muted simultaneously.
Mute will be canceled automatically in the following situations:
●When the shift lever is changed.
●When the vehicle speed exceeds a certain speed.
●When there is a malfunction in a sen-
sor or the system is temporarily unavailable.
●When the operating function is dis-abled manually.
●When the power switch is turned off.
■Conditions under which the system will not detect a vehicle
The RCTA function is not designed to
detect the following types of vehicles and/or objects.
●Vehicles approaching from directly behind
●Vehicles backing up in a parking space next to your vehicle
●Vehicles that the sensors cannot detect due to obstructions
●Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehi-
cles and similar stationary objects*
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans, etc.*
●Vehicles moving away from your vehi- cle
●Vehicles approaching from the park-
ing spaces next to your vehicle*
●The distance between the sensor and approaching vehicle gets too close*: Depending on conditions, detection of
a vehicle and/or object may occur.
■Situations in which the system may
not operate properly
The RCTA function may not detect vehi-
cles correctly in the following situations:
●When the sensor is misaligned due to
a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding area

■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.

• The vehicle speed is approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.• Vehicles which are approaching from
the right or left at the rear of the vehi- cle at a traveling speed of approxi-mately 8 km/h (5 mph) 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 approaching vehi-cle.
●Brake control• Hybrid system output restriction con-
trol is operating. • The Parking Support Brake deter-mines that an emergency brake oper-

■The Parking Support Brake func-tion (rear-crossing vehicles) will
stop operating 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 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.287). 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.
■RCTA buzzer
Regardless of whether the RCTA func- tion is enabled or not ( P.286), if the Parking Support Brake function is
enabled ( P.292) and brake control is performed, a buzzer will sound to notify the driver.

■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The recognition and control capabili- ties for this system are limited. Do not
overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for paying attention to the vehicle’ surroundings
and driving safely.
●As with a normal vehicle, take care
to observe your surroundings while the vehicle is moving.
●Always pay attention to the vehi-cle’s surroundings while the system is operating.
●When parking, make sure that the vehicle can be parked in the target
parking space before beginning operation.
