■The Toyota parking assist-sensor can be operated when
The power switch is in ON mode.
● Front sensors:
• The shift position is shifted to a position other than P.
• The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
(At any speed when the shift position is in R)
● Rear sensors:
The shift position is in R.
■ Sensor detection information
● Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding 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.
• A sensor is frozen.
• A sensor is covered in any way.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, 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 ultra-
sonic waves.
• There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensors in the
vicinity.
• A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
• The vehicle is equipped with a fender pole or wireless antenna.
• Towing eyelet is installed.
• A bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.
• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
• A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension etc.) is installed.
In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shapes, 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
particular 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 projecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle

■ If “Clean sonar.” is displayed on the multi-information display
A sensor may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In this case, clean the
sensor and the system should return to normal.
If a sensor is frozen due to low temperatures, a warning message may be dis-
played or an obstacle may not be detected. When the sensor thaws out, the
system should return to normal.
■ If “Check sonar system.” is displayed on the multi-information display
The system may not operate due to the malfunction of a sensor.
Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
WARNING
■ Caution when using the Toyota parking assist-sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely
and possibly cause an accident.
● Do not use the sensor at speeds in excess of 10 km/h (6 mph).
● Do not attach any accessories within the sensor range.
NOTICE
■Notes on the Toyota parking assist-sensor
● Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.
● If your vehicle is involved in an accident, it will affect the sensors and may
result in a system failure.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.

■ Toyota parking assist-sensor operation during Simple-IPA operation
Even if the Toyota parking assist-sensor is turned off while Simple-IPA is acti-
vated, the Toyota parking assist-sensor will keep operating. In this case,
when Simple-IPA operation is complete or canceled, the Toyota parking
assist-sensor will be deactivated.
■ When the cabin temperature is high
The sensors may not work properly when the cabin temperature is high due
to parking the vehicle in the sun. Use Simple-IPA after the cabin cools down.
■ Sensors used by Simple-IPA
 P. 284
■ Initializing Simple-IPA
Within 15 seconds of turning the Simple-IPA switch on, turn the steering
wheel all the way to the left or right and then to the opposite side.
When the parking space detection screen is displayed, the initialization is
complete.
If pressing the Simple-IPA switch again still shows “IPA not available, stop the
vehicle, turn wheel from left end to ri ght end.” on the multi-information display,
the initialization has failed. Have the vehicle inspected at any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of Simple-IPA
● Never depend on the Simple-IPA entirely when parking. The driver is
responsible for safety. Use caution, just as you would when parking any
vehicle.
● Back up slowly, using the brake pedal to control the vehicle's speed.
● If it seems likely to hit nearby vehicles, obstacles, or people, depress the
brake pedal to stop the vehicle, and the disable the system.

WARNING
■Conditions in which the use of Simple-IPA is prohibited
Do not use Simple-IPA under the following conditions.
Doing so may cause improper operation and lead to an unexpected acci-
dent.
● On sharp bends or slopes.
● On slippery or icy roads, or in snow.
● On uneven road surfaces such as gravel.
● During bad weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow, or a sandstorm.
● When the tires are extremely worn or tire pressure is low.
● When the vehicle has improper wheel alignment due to tires having
received a strong impact such as bumping against a curb.
● When the compact spare tire (if equipped) or snow chains are installed.
● When the tires slid while attempting to park.
● When fallen leaves or snow is in a parking space.
● Models that can tow a trailer: When items such as a towing bracket, trailer,
bicycle carrier, etc. are installed on the rear of the vehicle.
● When a vehicle of which the front/rear end is above the detection area,
such as a truck, bus or vehicle with a towing bracket, trailer, bicycle carrier,
etc., is parked at the front or rear of the parking space.
● If the front bumper has been damaged.
● If the sensor is covered by the front bumper cover, etc.
● If a vehicle or obstacle is not in a suitable position at the front or rear of the
parking space.
■ Automatic steering precautions
As the steering wheel moves automatically in the parking assist function, be
aware of the following point.
● Keep clothing such as neckties, scarves and long sleeves away from the
steering wheel, as they may become entangled. Also, keep children away
from the steering wheel.
● If you have long fingernails, be careful not to injure yourself when the

NOTICE
■When using the Simple-IPA
● Check that the parking space is suitable. (Width of the space, if there are
any obstacles, road surface condition, etc.)
● Simple-IPA will not operate properly if the vehicle at the front or back of the
parking space moves, or if an obstacle enters the parking space after the
sensors have detected the parking space. Always check the surrounding
area during parking assist operation.
● The sensors may not be able to detect curbs. The vehicle may drive onto
the curb depending on the situation, such as if a vehicle at the front or
back of the parking space has driven on the curb.
Check the surrounding area to prevent the tires and wheels from being
damaged.
● The vehicle may not be able to be parked at a target parking space if the
vehicle moves forward when the shift position is in R or reverses when the
shift position is in a position other than R, such as when parking on a
slope.
● When reversing, reverse the vehicle
slowly to prevent the front end of the
vehicle from hitting an obstacle in the
front of the vehicle.
● When reversing, reverse the vehicle
slowly to prevent the front end of the
vehicle from hitting the vehicle parked in
front of the parking space.
