QAutomatic P position selection function
In the following situations, the shift position is automatically changed to P.
OWhen pressing the power switch with the vehicle stopped while the power
switch is in ON mode and the shift position is in a position other than P (after
the shift position has changed to P, the power switch will turn off)
*
OIf the driver’s door is opened and all of the following conditions are met,
while the shift position is in a position other than P
• The power switch is in ON mode.
• The driver is not wearing the seat belt.
• The brake pedal is not depressed.
To start off the vehicle after the shift position is changed to P, operate the
shift lever again.
*: When the power switch is pressed while driving at extremely slow speeds,
such as immediately before stopping the vehicle, the shift position may
automatically change to P. Make sure that the vehicle is completely
stopped before pressing the power switch.
The shift position may also automatically switch to P if one of the following
conditions is detected while the vehicle is stopped by dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range.
ODriver’s seat belt is not fastened
ODriver’s door is opened
OApproximately 3 minutes elapse after the vehicle stopped
QIf the shift position cannot be shifted from P
There is a possibility that the 12-volt battery is discharged. Check the 12-volt
battery in this situation. (P. 697)
QAbout engine braking
When shift position B is selected, releasing the accelerator pedal will apply
engine braking.
OWhen the vehicle is driven at high speeds, compared to ordinary gasoline-
fueled vehicles, the engine braking deceleration is felt less than that of other
vehicles.
OThe vehicle can be accelerated even when shift position B is selected.
If the vehicle is driven continuously in the B position, fuel efficiency will
become low. Usually, select the D position.

Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed
appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at
this time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle
ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver.
Approach warning warns you when the system cannot decelerate suffi-
ciently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is
stopped by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pushing the
cruise control lever up or depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off opera-
tion) will resume follow-up cruising. If the start-off operation is not per-
formed, system control continues to keep your vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves to an over-
taking lane while driving at 80 km/h (50 mph) or more, the vehicle will
accelerate to help to overtake a passing vehicle.
The system’s identification of what is an overtaking lane may be deter-
mined solely based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left
side driver position versus right side driver position.) If the vehicle is driven
to a region where the overtaking lane is on a different side from where the
vehicle is normally driven, the vehicle may accelerate when the turn signal
lever is operated in the opposite direction to the overtaking lane (e.g., if the
driver normally operates the vehicle in a region where the overtaking lane
is to the right but then drives to a region where the overtaking lane is to the
left, the vehicle may accelerate when the right turn signal is activated).
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower
than the set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.

After the vehicle ahead of you
starts off, push the lever up.
Your vehicle will also resume fol-
low-up cruising if the accelerator
pedal is depressed after the vehi-
cle ahead of you starts off.
Pulling the lever toward you
cancels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is
depressed.
(When the vehicle has been
stopped by system control,
depressing the brake pedal does
not cancel the setting.)
Pushing the lever up resumes the cruise control and returns vehicle
speed to the set speed.

QDynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when
OThe shift position is in D.
OThe desired set speed can be set when the vehicle speed is approximately
30 km/h (20 mph) or more.
(However, when the vehicle speed is set while driving at below approxi-
mately 30 km/h [20 mph], the set speed will be set to approximately 30 km/h
[20 mph].)
QAccelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After acceler-
ating, the set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.
QWhen the vehicle stops while follow-up cruising
OPushing the lever up while the vehicle ahead stops will resume follow-up
cruising if the vehicle ahead starts off within approximately 3 seconds after
the lever is pushed up.
OIf the vehicle ahead starts off within 3 seconds after your vehicle stops, fol-
low-up cruising will be resumed.
QAutomatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the fol-
lowing situations.
OVSC is activated.
OTRC is activated for a period of time.
OWhen the VSC or TRC system is turned off.
OThe sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
OWhen the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support sys-
tem operates.
(For example: Pre-Collision System, Drive-Start Control)
OThe parking brake is operated.
OThe vehicle is stopped by system control on a steep incline.
OThe following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system
control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The vehicle has been stopped for about 3 minutes.
The shift position may automatically change to P. (P. 332)
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any
reasons other than the above, there may be a malfunction in the system.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.

QConditions under which the system may not function correctly
OThe Blind Spot Monitor function may not detect vehicles correctly in the fol-
lowing situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is covering the sensor or surround-
ing area on the rear bumper
• When driving on a road surface that is wet with standing water during bad
weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
• When multiple vehicles are approaching with only a small gap between
each vehicle
• When the distance between your vehicle and a following vehicle is short
• When there is a significant difference in speed between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection area
• When the difference in speed between your vehicle and another vehicle
is changing
• When a vehicle enters a detection area traveling at about the same
speed as your vehicle
• As your vehicle starts from a stop, a vehicle remains in the detection area
• When driving up and down consecutive steep inclines, such as hills, dips
in the road, etc.
• When driving on roads with sharp bends, consecutive curves, or uneven
surfaces
• When vehicle lanes are wide, or when driving on the edge of a lane, and
the vehicle in an adjacent lane is far away from your vehicle
• When a bicycle carrier or other accessory is installed to the rear of the
vehicle
• When there is a significant difference in height between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection area
• Immediately after the Blind Spot Monitor function is turned on

QSensor detection range
The detection range of the Parking Support Brake function differs from the
detection range of the Toyota parking assist-sensor. (P. 455)
Therefore, even if the Toyota parking assist-sensor detects an obstacle and
provides a warning, the Parking Support Brake function may not start operat-
ing.
QSystem operation
When the vehicle is stopped by system operation, the Parking Support Brake
function stops and the PKSB OFF indicator illuminates.
QSystem recovery
When the Parking Support Brake function is stopped by system operation
and you would like to resume operation, either turn the Parking Support
Brake function on again (P. 464), or turn the power switch off and then back
on. Furthermore, when the vehicle moves with an obstacle no longer in the
traveling direction of the vehicle, or when the traveling direction of the vehicle
changes (such as when switching from moving forward to backing up, and
vice versa), system operation automatically resumes.
QObstacles not detected by the sensors
The following obstacles may not be detected by the sensors.
OObjects such as people, cloth and snow, that are difficult for sonic waves to
reflect off of. (In particular, people may also not be detected depending on
the type of clothing they are wearing.)
OObjects not perpendicular with the ground, objects not at a right angle to the
traveling direction of the vehicle, uneven objects or waving objects
OLow objects
OThin objects such as wires, fences, ropes and signposts
OObjects that are extremely close to the bumper
QSituations in which the system may not operate properly
P. 457
QSituations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision
P. 459
QIn the unlikely event that the Parking Support Brake function mistakenly
operates at a crossing or elsewhere
Even in the unlikely event that the Parking Support Brake function mistakenly
operates at a crossing or elsewhere, brake control is canceled after approxi-
mately 2 seconds, allowing you to proceed forward and leave the area. Fur-
thermore, brake control is also canceled when the brake pedal is depressed.
Depressing the accelerator pedal again allows you to proceed forward and
leave the area.

QFunction summary
If a parking space can be detected, you will be guided forward until
you reach the assist control starting position, and then the pa rallel
parking assist mode can be used. Furthermore, depending on the
parking space and other conditions, multi-turn maneuvering assi st
control is also provided if necessary.
Continue moving forward
with the vehicle parallel to
the curb or road, and stop so
that the center of the target
parking spot appears nearly
perpendicular to the vehicle.
Then press the S-IPA switch
1 time to select the parallel
parking assist mode.
Travel straight ahead paral-
lel with the road or curb so
that the parking space is
detected.
A sound is issued and a display is shown to notify you when the
vehicle reaches a position where assist control can be used to
begin backing up from, and then when the shift position is
changed according to guidance provided by the system, steering
wheel auto operation begins.
If the detected parking space or road width (distance to the si de of the
road across from the parking spac e) is narrow, or if there are obstacles
in front of the vehicle, guidance will not be issued.
Parking is complete
This completes the assist mode. Depending on the condition of t he
parking space, guidance to starting points for moving forward a nd back-
ing up, as well as the steering wheel auto operation, are repea ted any
time multi-turn maneuvering is necessary following step from t he
time the vehicle begins backing up until parking completes.
