4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
• When the Lexus parking assist-sensor is turned off once and turned on again• When the engine switch <power switch>
is turned off once and turned to IGNI- TION ON mode <ON mode> again
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is dis-played on the multi-information display
A sensor may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In such cases, if it is removed from
the sensor, the system should return to nor- mal.
Also, due to the sensor being frozen at low temperatures, a malfunction display may appear or an obstacle may not be detected.
If the sensor thaws out, the system should return to normal.
■If “Parking Assist Malfunction” or “Park-ing Assist Malfunction Visit Your
Dealer” is displayed on the multi-infor- mation display
There is a malfunction and the device may not be working properly.
Have the vehicle inspected by any autho- rized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are limited
to the areas around the vehicle’s front and rear bumpers.
●Certain vehicle conditions and the sur-rounding environment may affect the ability of the sensor to correctly detect
obstacles. Particular instances where this may occur are listed below.• There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor.
(Wiping the sensors will resolve this problem.)• The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area
will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is fro-
zen the screen may show an abnormal dis-
play, or obstacles may not be detected.
• The sensor is covered in any way.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.• On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on grav el, or on grass. • The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to
vehicle horns, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noises producing ultrasonic waves.
• There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensor in the vicinity.• The sensor is splashed with water or
heavy rain. • The vehicle is equipped with a fender pole or wireless antenna.
• Towing eyelets are installed. • The bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
• The area directly under the bumpers is not detected.• If obstacles draw too close to the sensor.
• A non-genuine Lexus suspension (low- ered suspension etc.) is installed.• People may not be detected if they are
wearing certain types of clothing.
In addition to the examples above, there are
instances in which, because of their shape,
signs and other objects may be judged by
the sensor to be closer than they are.
●The shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particu-
lar attention to the following obstacles: • Wires, fences, ropes, etc.• Cotton, snow and other materials that
absorb sound waves • Sharply-angled objects•Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections pro- jecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
●The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detection distance may shorten, or detection may be impos-
sible. • Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between obstacle detection and display. Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the
obstacle will come within the sensor’s detection areas before the display is shown and the warning beep sounds.
