PKSB (Parking Suppor t Brake)
■Parking Support Brake function (static objects)
Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect static objects, such as a wall,
in the detection area when driving at a low speed or backing up .
( P. 483)
■Parking Support Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles) (if
equipped)
Rear radar sensors are used to detect approaching vehicles in t he
detection area behind the vehicle when backing up. ( P. 4 8 7 )
: If equipped
The Parking Support Brake system consists of the following
functions that operate when driving at a low speed or backing
up, such as when parking. When the system determines that a
collision with a detected object is high, a warning operates to
urge the driver to take evasive action. If the system determine s
that the possibility of a collision with a detected object is
extremely high, the brakes are automatically applied to help
avoid the collision or help reduce the impact of the collision.

• There is a static object in the traveling direction of the veh icle and approx-
imately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away.
• The Parking Support Brake determines that a stronger-than-norm al brake
operation is necessary to avoid a collision.
● Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control is operating
• The Parking Support Brake determines that an immediate brake o pera-
tion is necessary to avoid a collision.
■ The Parking Support Brake function (static objects) will stop operating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the following condit ions are met:
● Hybrid system output restriction control
• The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
• The system determines that the collision has become avoidable with nor-
mal brake operation.
• The static object is no longer approximately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away
from the vehicle or in the traveling direction of the vehicle.

S-IPA (Simple Intelligent Parking Assist
System)
The Simple Intelligent Parking Assist System automatically oper ates
the steering wheel to provide support when backing into an area near
a target parking spot, and when departing from a parallel parki ng spot.
(Shift lever operations and speed adjustment when moving forwar d or
backing up are not performed automatically.)
● The Simple Intelligent Parking Assist System does not park the
vehicle automatically. It is a system that provides support whe n
pulling out of a perpendicular or parallel parking spot.
● The Simple Intelligent Parking Assist System provides steering
wheel operation assistance to guide the vehicle toward the sele cted
intended parking spot. The selected intended parking spot may n ot
always be reachable, depending on road and vehicle conditions a t
the time of parking, and the distance to the intended parking s pot.
While the Simple Intelligent Parking Assist System is operating , if the
system detects an obstacle that could result in a collision, th e emer-
gency brakes operate, regardless of whether the PKSB (Parking S up-
port Brake) system is on or off. ( P. 495)
