■Cautions regarding the use of
the function
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, tak-
ing care to observe your
surroundings.
The RCTA function is only a supple-
mentary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is approaching from the right or left at the rear of the
vehicle. As the RCTA function may
not function correctly under certain conditions, the driver’s own visual
confirmation of safety is necessary.
Over reliance on this function may lead to an accident resulting death or
serious injury.

■Conditions under which the system
will not detect a vehicle
The RCTA function is not designed to
detect the following types of vehicles
and/or objects:
●Vehicles approaching from directly
behind
●Vehicles backing up in a parking
space next to your vehicle
●Vehicles that the sensors cannot
detect due to obstructions
●Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehi-
cles and similar stationary objects*
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans, etc.*
●Vehicles moving away from your vehi- cle
●Vehicles approaching from the park-
ing spaces next to your vehicle*
●The distance between the sensor and
approaching vehicle gets too close*: Depending on the conditions, detec-
tion of a vehicle and/or object may
occur.
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
The RCTA function may not detect vehi-
cles correctly in the following situations:
●When the sensor is misaligned due to
a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding area
●When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc.,
is covering the sensor or its surround- ing area on the rear bumper
●When driving on a road surface that is wet with standing water during bad
weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or
fog
●When multiple vehicles are approach-
ing with only a small gap between each vehicle
●When a vehicle is approaching at high speed
●When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-
tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●When backing up on a slope with a sharp change in grade
●When backing out of a sharp angle
parking spot
●When towing a trailer
●When there is a significant difference in height between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection
area
●When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold

●When a vehicle turns into the detec-
tion area
■Situations in which the system may
operate even if there is no possibil- ity of a collision
Instances of the RCTA function unnec-
essary detecting a vehicle and/or object may increase in the following situations:
●When the parking space faces a street and vehicles are being driven on the
street
●When the distance between your vehi-
cle and metal objects, such as a
guardrail, wall, sigh, or parked vehi-
cle,which may reflect electrical waves toward the rear of the vehicle, is short
●When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-
tional trim strip, et c.), bicycle carrier,or
snow plow
●When a vehicle passes by the side of
your vehicle
●When a detected vehicle turns while
approaching the vehicle
●When there are spinning objects near
your vehicle such as the fan of an air conditioning unit
●When water is splashed or sprayed toward the rear bumper, such as from
a sprinkler
●Moving objects ( flags, exhaust fumes,
large rain droplets or snowflakes, rain
water on the road surface, etc.)

■Parking Support Brake func-
tion (static objects) (if
equipped)
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. 3 2 4 )
■Parking Support Brake func-
tion (rear-crossing vehicles) (if
equipped)
Rear radar sensors are used to
detect approaching vehicles in the
PKSB (Parking Suppor t
Brake)*
The Parking Support Brake
system consists of the follow-
ing 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 determines that the
possibility of a collision with a
detected object is extremely
high, the brakes are automati-
cally applied to help avoid the
collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.

■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
Do not overly rely on the system, as
doing so may lead to an accident.
●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive carefully,
taking care to observe your
surroundings. 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 operatio ns 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 Br ake 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
