RCD (Rear Camera
Detection)*
When the vehicle is backing
up, the rear camera detection
function can detect pedestri-
ans in the detection area
behind the vehicle. If a pedes-
trian is detected, a buzzer will
sound and an icon will be dis-
played on the multimedia dis-
play to inform the driver of the
pedestrian.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of the system
The recognition and control capabili- ties for this system are limited.
The driver should always drive safely
by always being responsible without over relying on the system and have a understanding of the surrounding situ-
ations.
■To ensure the system can oper-
ate properly
Observe the following, otherwise there is the danger that could lead to
an accident.
●Always clean the camera without
damaging it.
●Do not install market electronic
parts (such as Illuminated license plate, fog lamps, etc.) in the camera vicinity.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
Do not overly rely on the system, as doing so may lead to an accident.
Always drive while checking the safety of the surroundings of the vehi-cle.
Depending on the vehicle and road conditions, weather, etc., the system may not operate.
The detection capabilities of sensors and radars are limited. Always drive while checking the safety of the sur-
roundings of the vehicle.
●The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive carefully, taking care to observe your sur-roundings. The Parking Support
Brake system is designed to pro- vide support to lessen the severity of collisions. However, it may not
operate in some situations.
●The Parking Support Brake system
is not designed to stop the vehicle completely. Additionally, even if the system has stopped the vehicle, it
is necessary to depress the brake pedal immediately as brake control will be canceled after approximately
2 seconds.
●It is extremely dangerous to check
the system operations by intention- ally driving the vehicle into the direction of a wall, etc. Never
attempt such actions.
■When to disable the Parking Sup- port Brake
In the following situations, disable the
Parking Support Brake as the system may operate even though there is no possibility of a collision.
●When inspecting the vehicle using a chassis roller, chassis dynamo or
free roller
●When loading the vehicle onto a
boat, truck or other transport vessel
●If the suspension has been modi-
fied or tires of a size other than specified are installed
●If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load
●When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a tow-ing eyelet, bumper protector (an
additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●When using automatic car washing devices
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehicle has been in an accident or
is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a
sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly
inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When a tire chains, compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture
repair kit is used
■Precautions for the suspension
Do not modify the suspension of the vehicle. If the height or tilt of the vehi-cle is changed, the sensors may not
be able to detect detectable objects and the system may not operate cor-rectly, possibly leading to an accident.

be canceled. Then, the vehicle can be operated by depressing the accelerator pedal.
■Re-enabling the Parking Support
Brake
To re-enable the Parking Support Brake when it has been disabled due to opera-
tion of the Parking Support Brake, either
enable the system again ( P.354), or turn the power switch off and then back to ON.
Additionally, if any of the following condi- tions are met, the system will be re-enabled automatically and the driving
assist information indicator will turn off:
●The P shift position is selected
●The object is no longer detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle
●The traveling direction of the vehicle
changes*

■Toyota parking assist-sensor
buzzer
Regardless of whether the Toyota park- ing assist-sensor buzzer is enabled or
not, if the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system is enabled, the front or rear sensors detect a static object and
brake control is performed, the Toyota parking assist-sensor buzzer will sound to notify the driver of the approximate
distance to the object.
■If a 12-volt battery terminal has been disconnected and recon-nected
The system needs to be initialized. To initialize the system, drive the vehicle straight ahead for 5 seconds or more at
a speed of approximately 35 km/h (22 mph) or more.

tended 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.

the following situations
When moving sideways, such as when parallel parking: P.359
■Detection of objects along the
sides of the vehicle
●Objects along the sides of the vehicle
are not instantaneously detected. The location of objects in relation to the vehicle is estimated after they are first
detected by the front or rear side sen- sors, or side cameras. Therefore, after the power switch is changed to ON,
even if an object is along the side of the vehicle, it may not be detected until the vehicle has been driven a
small amount and the side sensors or side cameras completely scan the areas along the sides of the vehicle.
●If a vehicle, person, animal, etc, is detected by a side sensors or side
