●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 static object is no longer 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away from the vehicle or in the
traveling direction of the vehicle.
■Detection range of the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects)
The detection range of the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) differs from
the detection range of the intuitive parking
assist. ( P.224) Therefore, even if the intui-
tive parking assist de tects an object and
provides a warning, the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) may not start
operating.
■Objects that the Parking Support Brake
function (static obje cts) may not detect
The sensors may not be able to detect cer-
tain objects, such as the following:
●Pedestrian
●Cotton cloth, snow, and other materials
that are poor reflectors of ultrasonic
waves
●Objects which are not perpendicular to
the ground, are not perpendicular to the
traveling direction of the vehicle, are
uneven or are waving
●Low objects
●Thin objects such as wires, fences, ropes
and signposts
●Objects that are extremely close to the
bumper
■Situations in which the Parking Support
Brake function (stati c objects) may not
operate
When driving with the shift lever in N
■Intuitive parking assist buzzer
Regardless of whether the intuitive parking
assist function is enabled or not ( P.221), if
the Parking Support Brake function (static
objects) is enabled ( P.232), the front or
rear sensors detect an object and engine output restriction control or brake control is
performed, the intuitive parking assist
buzzer will sound to notify the driver of the
approximate distance to the object.
■Situations in which the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) may
operate even if there is no possibility of a
collision
In some situations, such as the following, the
Parking Support Brake function (static
objects) may operate even though there is
no possibility of a collision.
●Vehicle surroundings
• When driving on a narrow road
• When driving on a gravel road or in an area with tall grass
• When driving toward a banner, flag, low- hanging branch or boom barrier (such as
those used at railroad crossings, toll gates
and parking lots)
• When driving on a narrow path sur-
rounded by a structure, such as in a tun-
nel or on an iron bridge
• When parallel parking
• When there is a rut or hole in the surface
of the road
• When driving on a metal cover (grating),
such as those used for drainage ditches
• When driving on a steep slope
• If a sensor is hit by a large amount of water, such as when driving on a flooded
road

such as a backlit license plate (especially
fluorescent type), fog lights, fender pole
or wireless antenna is installed near a
sensor
●Changes in the vehicle posture
• If the vehicle is significantly tilted
• If the front of the vehicle is raised or low- ered due to the carried load
• If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact
■Situations in which the Parking Support
Brake function (stati c objects) may not
operate properly
In some situations, such as the following, this
function may not operate properly.
●Weather
• When a sensor or the area around a sen- sor is extremely hot or cold
• When strong winds are blowing • If a sensor is covered with ice, snow, dirt,
etc. (when cleared, the system will return
to normal)
• If heavy rain or water strikes a sensor
• When driving in incl ement weather such
as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●Vehicle surroundings
• When an object that cannot be detected
is between the vehicle and a detected
object
• If an object such as a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestrian cuts in front of the
vehicle or runs out from the side of the
vehicle
●Other ultrasonic waves sources
• When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors,
motorcycle engines, air brakes of large
vehicles, the clearance sonar of other
vehicles or other de vices which produce
ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle

2404-5. Using the driving support systems
*: If equipped
This function will operate in situations
such as the following if a vehicle is
detected in the traveling direction of
the vehicle.
■When reversing, a vehicle is
approaching and the brake pedal is
not depressed, or is depressed late
P.216
■The Parking Support Brake function
(rear-crossing vehicles) will operate
when
The function will operate 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 10 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• Vehicles which are ap proaching from the
right or left at the rear of the vehicle at a
traveling speed of more than approxi-
mately 5 mph (8 km/h)
• The shift lever is in R.
• The Parking Support Brake determines
that a stronger than normal brake opera-
tion is necessary to avoid a collision with
Parking Support Brake func-
tion (rear-crossing vehicles)*
If a rear radar sensor detects a vehi-
cle approaching from the right or
left at the rear of the vehicle and the
system determines that the possi-
bility of a collision is high, this func-
tion will perform brake control to
reduce the likelihood of an impact
with the approaching vehicle.

operation sounds and vibrations may be
generated from the brake system, but this is
not a malfunction.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is operated, a
motor sound (whirring sound) may be
heard. This does not indicate a malfunction.
■Automatic reactivation of TRAC and
VSC systems
After turning the TRAC and VSC systems
off, the systems will be automatically re-
enabled in the following situations:
●When the engine switch is turned off
●If only the TRAC system is turned off, the
TRAC will turn on when vehicle speed
increases. If both the TRAC and VSC
systems are turned off, automatic re-
enabling will not occur when vehicle
speed increases.
