Simple-IPA (Simple-Intelligent Parking
Assist)

: If equipped
Simple-IPA is a system that assists parallel parking operations.
When parking between two parked vehicles or in the space
behind one parked vehicle, the sensors installed on the sides of
the front bumper are utilized and a space which the vehicle can
be parked in is detected. Parking operations are then assisted
by automatic operation of the steering wheel.

Driving
Operate Simple-IPA according to the multi-information display and the
buzzer.
The system detects parking spaces on the front passenger’s side of the
vehicle and assists with parking in a detected space.
When parking in a space on the driver’s side of the vehicle, move the turn
signal lever to indicate turning on the driver’s seat side. Leave the turn sig-
nal lever in that position until automatic steering begins.
Turn the Simple-IPA switch on
with the vehicle driving at 30
km/h (18 mph) or less.
The multi-information display
changes to the parking space
detection screen when the system
is operating.
Drive the vehicle while main-
taining a distance of approxi-
mately 1 m (3 ft.) from the
parked vehicles.
Drive the vehicle as parallel to the
parked vehicles and curb as possi-
ble.
Lower vehicle speeds allow the
system to assist in parking the
vehicle more parallel to the parked
vehicles and curb, and in a more
proper position between vehicles
at the front and rear of a parking
space.
The required length for a parking
space to be detected is the total
vehicle length plus approximately 1
m (3 ft.).
Maintain a vehicle speed of 30
km/h (18 mph) or less.
