Driving
■
Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) will operate when
The function will oper ate when the PKSB
OFF indicator is not illuminated or flashing
(  P.69, 70) and all of the following condi-
tions are met:
●
Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or
less.
• The shift position is in R.
• The rear camera sensor detects a pedes-
trian behind the vehicle while backing up
and the system determines that the possi-
bility of colliding with the detected
pedestrian is high.
●
Brake control
• Engine output restriction control is oper-
ating. • The Parking Support Brake determines
that an emergency brake operation is
necessary to avoid a collision with a
pedestrians. ■
The Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) will stop operating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the
following conditions are met: ●
Engine output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• The collision becomes avoidable with
normal brake operation.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle. ●
Brake control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed
since the vehicle was stopped by brake
control.
• The brake pedal is depressed after the
vehicle is stopped by brake control.
• The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle. ■
Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake
function (rear pedestrians)
 P.275 ■
Detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
The detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians) differs
from the detection area of the RCD func-
tion (  P.268). Therefore, even if the RCD
function detects a vehicle and provides an
alert, the Parking Support Brake function
(rear-crossing vehicles) may not start oper-
ating.
■
Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
●
Some pedestrians, such as the following,
may not be detected by the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear pedestrians),
preventing the function from operating
properly:
• Pedestrians who are bending forward or
squatting
• Pedestrians who are lying down
• Pedestrians who are running
• Pedestrians who suddenly enter the
detection areaWARNING■
If the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates unneces-
sarily
Depress the brake pedal immediately
after the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates. (Operation
of the function is canceled by depressing
the brake pedal.) ■
Correct use of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
Do not overly rely on the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (rear pedestrians).
Depending on the road conditions, vehi-
cle conditions and weather, this function
may not operate correctly. As the detec-
tion performance of the rear camera is
limited, always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings.
Additionally, if the PKSB OFF indictor is
flashing or a warning message is dis-
played on the center display indicating
that the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) is unavailable, the
function cannot be used. Even if these
warnings are not output, the driver is
always responsible for paying attention
to the vehicle’s surro undings and driving
safely.

front of you, especially in the following
situations:
●
When driving on dirt, gravel or
snow-covered roads
●
When driving with tire chains
●
When driving over bumps in the road ●
When driving over roads with potholes
or uneven surfaces ■
TRAC/VSC may not operate effec-
tively when
Directional control and power may not
be achievable while driving on slippery
road surfaces, even if the TRAC/VSC
system is operating. Drive the vehicle
carefully in conditions where stability and
power may be lost. ■
Hill-start assist control does not oper-
ate effectively when ●
Do not overly rely on hill-start assist
control. Hill-start assist control may
not operate effectively on steep
inclines and roads covered with ice. ●
Unlike the parking brake, hill-start
assist control is not intended to hold
the vehicle stationary for an extended
period of time. Do not attempt to use
hill-start assist control to hold the vehi-
cle on an incline, as doing so may lead
to an accident. ■
