■Setting the buzzer volume
The buzzer volume can be adjusted with the RCTA buzzer volume o n the
multi-information display. ( P. 114, 130)
■ Muting the buzzer sound
The buzzer can be temporarily muted by pressing
of the meter control
switches while an object detection display is shown on the mult i-information
display.
■ If “Rear Camera Detection Unava ilable Remove the Dirt of Rear Camera”
is displayed on the multi-information display
A rear camera lens may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In such cases, if
it is removed from the rear camera lens, the system should retu rn to normal.
(It may be necessary to drive the vehicle for some time before the system
returns to normal.)
■ If “Rear Camera Detection Unavai lable” is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display
● If this message is displayed after the 12-volt battery has been disconnected
and reconnected, fully turn the steering wheel to the left and then the right
on level ground.
● If this message is displayed only when the R shift position is selected, the
rear camera lens may be dirty. Clean the rear camera lens.
■ Situations in which the syst em may not operate properly
● Some pedestrians, such as the following, may not be detected by the Rear
Camera Detection function, preventing the function from operati ng properly:
• Pedestrians who are squatting
• Pedestrians who are lying down
• Pedestrians who are running
• Pedestrians who suddenly enter the detection area
• Pedestrians riding a bicycle, skateboard, or other light vehic le
• Pedestrians wearing unusual clothing, such as a costume
• Pedestrians whose body is partially hidden by a cart or other object
• Pedestrians which are obscured by darkness, such as at night
● In some situations, such as the following, pedestrians may not be detected
by the Rear Camera Detection function, preventing the function from operat-
ing properly:
• When backing up in inclement weather (rain, snow, fog, etc.)
• When the rear camera is obscured (dirt, snow, ice, etc. are at tached) or
scratched
• When a very bright light, such as the sun, or the headlights o f another
vehicle, shines directly into the rear camera
• When backing up in a place where the surrounding brightness ch anges
suddenly, such as at the entrance or exit of a garage or underg round
parking lot

3444-5. Using the driving support systems
●In some situations, such as the following, the Rear Camera Dete ction func-
tion may operate even though there are no pedestrians in the detection
area.
• When a three dimensional object, such as a pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked vehicle, is detected
• When a moving object, such as a car or motorcycle is detected
• When backing up toward moving objects such as flags or puddles , or air-
borne matter, such as smoke, steam, rain, or snow
• When there is a pattern on the road, due to the road being mad e of cob-
blestone or gravel or having tram rails, traces of repair, white lines,
pedestrian crossings or fallen leaves on the surface
• When backing up on a metal cover (grating), such as those used for
drainage ditches
• When backing up toward the roadside or a bump on the road
• When an object is reflected in a puddle or on a wet road surfa ce
• When there are shadows on the road
• When backing up over a bump on the road
• If the vehicle is significantly tilted, such as when carrying a heavy load
• When backing up toward an incline/decline
• If the suspension has been modified or tires of a size other than specified
are installed
• If the rear of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load
• If an electronic compartment, such as a backlit license plate or rear fog
light, is installed near the rear camera
• If a bumper protector, such as an additional trim strip, is installed to the rear bumper
• If the orientation of the rear camera has been changed due to a collision
or other impact, or removal and installation
• If a towing eyelet is installed to the rear of the vehicle
• When the rear camera is obscured (dirt, snow, ice, etc. are at tached) or
scratched
• When water is flowing over the rear camera lens
• If there is a flashing light in the detection area, such as th e emergency
flashers of another vehicle
■ Situations in which the Rear Cam era Detection function may be difficult
to notice
● If buzzer may be difficult to hear if the surrounding area is noisy, the volume
of the audio system volume is high, the air conditioning system is being
used, etc.
● If the temperature in the cabin is extremely high or low, the a udio system
screen may not operate correctly.

■Parking Support Brake function (static objects)
Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect static objects, such as a wall,
in the detection area when driving at a low speed or backing up .
(  P. 352)
■Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles)
Rear radar sensors are used to detect approaching vehicles in t he
detection area behind the v ehicle when backing up. (P. 361)
PKSB (Parking Suppor t Brake)
: If equipped
The Parking Support Brake system consists of the following
functions that operate when dr iving at a low speed or backing
up, such as when parking. When the system determines that the
possibility of a collision with a detected object is high, a wa rning
operates to urge the driver to take evasive action. If the syst em
determines that the possibility of a collision with a detected
object is extremely high, the br akes are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or help reduce the impact of the colli -
sion.

The Parking Support Brake can be enabled/disabled on the multi-
information display. All of the Parking Support Brake functions (static
objects and rear-crossing vehicles) are enabled/disabled simult ane-
ously.
Use the meter control switches t o enable/disable the parking support
brake. ( P. 111, 128)

When the Parking Support Brake is disabled, the PKSB OFF indica tor illu-
minates.
To re-enable the system when it was disabled, select on the multi-infor-
mation display, select and then “On”. If disabled using this method, the
system will not be re-enabled by turning the power switch off and then to
ON mode.

If the hybrid system output restriction control or brake control oper-
ates, a buzzer will so und and a message will be displayed on the
multi-information display to alert the driver.
Depending on the situation, hybrid system output restriction co ntrol will
operate to either limit acceleration or restrict output as much as possible.

If the Parking Support Brake function detects that a collision with an
object is possible, the hybrid s ystem output will be restricted to
restrain any increase in the vehicle speed. (Hybrid system outp ut
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.)

■If the Parking Support B rake function has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of the Parking Suppo rt Brake func-
tion, the Parking Support Brake system will be disabled and the PKSB OFF
indicator will illuminate.
■ Re-enabling the Parkin g Support Brake system
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake system when it is disabl ed due to
operation of the Parking Support Brake function, either enable the system
again ( P. 346), or turn the power switch off and then back to 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.
■ If “PKSB Unavailable” and “Park ing Assist Unavailable Clean Parking
Assist Sensor” are displayed on th e multi-information display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is flashing
● A sensor may be covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. In this case , remove the
ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to normal. If this
message is shown even after removing dirt from the sensor, or s hown when
the sensor was not dirty to begin with, have the vehicle inspec ted at your
Toyota dealer.
● A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice melts, the system will ret urn to nor-
mal.
● Water may be continuously flowing over the sensor surface, such as in a
heavy rain. When the system determines that it is normal, the system will
return to normal.
