WARNING
■Obstacles which may not be properly detected
The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Pay par-
ticular 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 d irection of
your vehicle
● People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
● Moving objects such as people or animals
NOTICE
■When using intuitive parking assist
In the following situations, the system may not function correctly due to a
sensor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle checked by your Toyot a dealer.
● The intuitive parking assist operation display flashes, and a buzzer sounds
when no obstacles are detected.
● If the area around a sensor collides with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.
● If the bumper collides with something.
● If the display shows continuously without beeping, except when the buzzer
volume is muted.
● If a display error occurs, first check the sensor.
If the error occurs even if there is no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is
likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.
■ Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor a rea.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.

The system will operate in situat ions such as the following if an object
is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
◆When traveling at a low speed and the brake pedal is not
depressed, or is depressed late
Intelligent Clearance Sonar (ICS)
: If equipped
If a collision with an object ma y occur due to the vehicle sud-
denly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal
operation, the vehicle moving th e unintended direction due to
the wrong shift position being se lected, or while parking or trav-
eling at low speeds, the sensors detect objects, such as a wall ,
in the traveling direction of t he vehicle, and the system opera tes
to lessen an impact with an object and reduce the resulting dam -
age.

If a radar sensor detects a vehi cle approaching from the right or left at
the rear of the vehicle and a collision may occur, this functio n will per-
form brake control to reduce th e likelihood of an impact with the
approaching vehicle.
■Examples of system operation
The system will operate in situat ions such as the following if an
object is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.

is not depressed, or is depressed late

If the engine output restriction c ontrol or brake control operates, a
buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed on the multi- infor-
mation display to alert the driver.
Depending on the situation, engine output restriction control will operate to
either limit acceleration or restrict output as much as possibl e.

If the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function detects that a collision with
an object is possible, the engine output will be restricted to restrain
any increase in the vehicle spee d. (Engine output restriction control:
See A below.)
Additionally, if the accelerator pedal continues to be depresse d, the
brakes will be applied automatically to reduce the vehicle spee d.
(Brake control: See B below.)

■The Intelligent Clearance Sonar function will operate when
The function will operate when the ICS OFF indicator is not ill uminated or
flashing ( P. 335, 343) and all of the following conditions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is 10 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• There is an object in the traveling direction of the vehicle a nd 6 to 13 ft. (2
to 4 m) away.
• The system determines that a stronger-than-normal brake operat ion is
necessary to avoid a collision.
● Brake control
• Engine output restriction control is operating.
• The system determines that an emergency brake operation is nec essary
to avoid a collision.
■ The Intelligent Clearance Sonar fu nction will stop operating when
The function will stop operating if any of the following condit ions are met:
● Engine output restriction control
• The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.
• The object is no longer 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the traveling direction
of the vehicle.
● Brake control
• The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds elapse after the vehicle is stopped by brake
control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by b rake con-
trol.
• The object is no longer 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the traveling direction
of the vehicle.
■ Detection range of the Intell igent Clearance Sonar function
The detection range of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function differs from
the detection range of the intuitive parking assist. ( P. 327)
Therefore, even if the intuitive parking assist detects an obje ct and provides a
warning, the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function may not start operating.
■ If the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of the Intelligent C learance Sonar
function, the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system will be disabl ed and the ICS
OFF indicator will illuminate.

Re-enabling the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system
To re-enable the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system when it is disabled due
to operation of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function, either enable the sys-
tem again (P. 335), or turn the engine switch off and then back to IGNITIO N
ON mode.
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 moving forward),
the system will be re-enabled automatically.
■ Objects that the Intelligent Clearance Sonar function may not d etect
The sensors may not be able to detect certain objects, such as the following.
● Cotton cloth, snow, and other materials that are poor reflector s of ultrasonic
waves.
(People may also not be detected depending on the type of cloth ing they are
wearing.)
● Objects which are not perpendicular to the ground, are not perp endicular to
the traveling direction of the vehicle, are uneven or are wavin g.
● Low objects
● Thin objects such as wires, fences, ropes and signposts
● Objects that are extremely close to the bumper
■ Intuitive parking assist buzzer
Regardless of whether the intuitive parking assist system is en abled or not
( P. 324), if the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is enabled ( P. 335),
the front or rear sensors detect an object and brake control is performed, the
intuitive parking assist buzzer will sound to notify the driver of the approxi-
mate distance to the object.
