Vehicles with a smart key system
●
When the headlights come on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30
seconds after a door is opened and closed if the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned off. (The lights
turn off immediately if on the key is pressed after all the doors are
locked.)
● When only the tail lights come on: The tail lights turn off automatically if
the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned off and the driver’s door is
opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNI-
TION ON mode, or turn the light switch off and then back to or
.
■ Customization that can be co nfigured at Toyota dealer
Settings (e.g. light sensor sensitivity) can be changed.
(Customizable features P. 638)
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the engine is not run-
ning.

Intuitive parking assist
The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when parallel
parking or maneuvering into a garage is measured by the sensors
and communicated via an indicator and a buzzer. Always check the
surrounding area when using this system.
■Types of sensors
Rear corner sensors
Rear center sensors
■ Intuitive parking assist switch
Turns the intuitive parking
assist on/off
When on, the indicator light
comes on and the buzzer
sounds to inform the driver
that the system is operational.

The indicator and buzzerWhen a sensor detects an obstacle, the direction of the obstacle is
indicated and the buzzer sounds.
■ Sensor operation and distance to an obstacle
The system operates when the vehicle approaches an obstacle, as
shown by the following table.
Rear corner sensors
Rear center sensors
Distance to an obstacle ft. (cm)Indicator and buzzer
Approximately 1.6 - 1.2 (50 - 37.5) Intermittent
Approximately 1.2 - 0.8 (37.5 - 25) Fast intermittent
Approximately 0.8 or less (25 or less) Continuously
Distance to an obstacle ft. (cm)Indicator and buzzer
Approximately 4.9 - 2.0 (150 - 60) Intermittent
Approximately 2.0 - 1.5 (60 - 45) Fast intermittent
Approximately 1.5 - 1.2 (45 - 35) Very fast intermittent
Approximately 1.2 or less (35 or less) Continuously

Detection range of the sensors
Approximately 1.6 ft. (50 cm)
Approximately 4.9 ft. (150 cm)
The diagram shows the detection
range of the sensors. Note that
the sensors cannot detect obsta-
cles that are extremely close to
the vehicle.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape
of the object etc.
■Intuitive parking assist can be operated when
Vehicles without a smart key system: The engine switch is in the “ON” posi-
tion and the shift lever is in R.
Vehicles with a smart key system: The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in
IGNITION ON mode and the shift lever is in R.

■Sensor detection information
● Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect
the ability of a sensor to correctly detect an obstacle. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed below.
• There is dirt, snow or ice on a sensor.
• A sensor is frozen.
• A sensor is covered in any way.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass
• The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noises producing
ultrasonic waves.
• There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensors in the vicinity.
• A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
• A bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or right-angled curb.
• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather
• A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension etc.) is installed.
In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shape, signs and other objects may be judged by a sensor to be closer
than they are.
● The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction
of your vehicle

■When the system malfunctions
If a malfunction occurs and no obstacles have been detected, the indicator
flashes and the buzzer sounds for approximately 7 seconds.
If the indicator comes on and stays on after that, have the vehicle inspected
by your Toyota dealer.
■ Customization that can be co nfigured at Toyota dealer
Settings (e.g. buzzer volume) can be changed.
(Customizable features P. 638)
■ Certification
For vehicles sold in the U.S.A.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions; (1) This device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
For vehicles sold in Canada
This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001.
Cet appareil ISM est conforme a la norme NMB-001 du Canada.
CAUTION
■Caution when using the intu itive parking assist-sensor
Do not attach any accessories within the sensor range.
Doing so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely and pos-
sibly cause an accident.
NOTICE
■ Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.

CAUTION
■
While driving the vehicle
Do not adjust the display. Adjust the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
■ When doing the circling calibration
Secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the vicinity.
Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration.
NOTICE
■To avoid compass malfunctions
Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the accessory meter dis-
play.
Doing this may cause the compass sensor to malfunction.
■ To ensure normal operation of the compass
● Do not perform a circling calibration of the compass in a place where the
earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields.
● During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.

5-1. Essential information
4RUNNER_U
Event data recorder
In a crash or near crash eventThe SRS airbag sensor assembly co ntains the EDR. In a crash or
near crash event, this device may record some or all of the following
information:
● Gasoline engine speed
● Whether the brake pedal was depressed or not
● Vehicle speed
● To what extent the accelerator pedal was depressed
● Position of the transmission shift lever
● Whether the driver and front passenger wore seat belts or not
● Driver’s seat position
● SRS airbag deployment data
● SRS airbag system diagnostic data
● Front passenger’s occupant classification
The information above is intended to be used for the purpose of
improving vehicle safety performance. Unlike general data recorders,
the EDR does not record sound data such as conversation between
passengers.
Your vehicle has computers that monitor and control certain aspects
of your vehicle. These computers assi st in driving and maintaining
optimal vehicle performance.
Besides storing data useful for tr oubleshooting, there is an event
data recorder (EDR) that records data in a crash or near crash
event.
