■Buzzer operation and distance to
an object
A buzzer sounds when the sensors are
operating.
The buzzer beeps faster as the vehi-
cle approaches an object. When the
vehicle comes within the following
distance of the object, the buzzer
sounds continuously:
Approximately 1.0 ft. (30 cm)
When 2 or more objects are
detected simultaneously, the buzzer
sounds for the nearest object. If one
or more objects come within
approximately 1.0 ft. (30 cm) of the
vehicle, the buzzer will repeat a long
tone, followed by fast beeps.
Automatic buzzer mute function:
After a buzzer begins sounding, if
the distance between the vehicle
and the detected object does not
become shorter, the buzzer will be
muted automatically. (However, if
the distance between the vehicle
and object is 1.0 ft. (30 cm) or less,
this function will not operate.)
The buzzer sounds volume can be
adjusted. ( P.231)

●A sensor may be cove red with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the system to
normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at
low temperatures, a warning message
may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice
melts, the system wi ll return to normal.
●The surrounding area of the sensors on
the bumper may be dirty, or a sensor may
be covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. In this
case, remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc. from
the sensor or its surrounding area on the
bumper to return the system to a normal
state. At a low temperature, a warning
message may be displayed or an object
may not be detected due to freezing of
the sensor. Once the ice melts, the sys-
tem will return to normal.
●If this message continues to be displayed
even after cleaning the sensor, or is dis-
played even though the sensor is clean,
have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus
dealer.
●Initialization may not have been per-
formed after a 12-volt battery terminal
was disconnected and reconnected. Ini-
tialize the system. ( P.247)

inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■If a 12-volt battery terminal has been
disconnected and reconnected
The system needs to be initialized. To initial-
ize the system, drive the vehicle straight
ahead for 5 seconds or more at a speed of
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h) or more.*: If equipped
This function will operate in situations
such as the following if an object is
detected in the traveling direction of
the vehicle.
Parking Support Brake func-
tion (static objects)*
If the sensors detect a static object,
such as a wall, in the traveling direc-
tion of the vehi cle and the system
determines that a collision may
occur due to the vehicle suddenly
moving forward due to an acciden-
tal accelerator pedal operation, the
vehicle moving the unintended
direction due to the wrong shift
position being selected, or while
parking or traveling at low speeds,
the system will operate to lessen
the impact with the detected static
object and reduce the resulting
damage.

generates braking force correspond-
ing to the brake operation
■ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the
brakes are applied suddenly, or if the
brakes are applied while driving on a
slippery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of brak-
ing force after the brake pedal is
depressed when the system detects a
panic stop situation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding
when swerving sudden ly or turning on
slippery road surfaces
■Enhanced VSC (Enhanced Vehi-
cle Stability Control)
Provides cooperative control of the
