When driving
Beeps and obstacle distance
A beep sounds when the corner sensors and back sensors are oper−
ating.
lThe beep sounds faster as the vehicle approaches an obstacle.
When the vehicle comes within the following distance of the obsta−
cle, the beep sounds continuously.
Front corner and back sensors: Approximately 1.1 ft. (35 cm)
Rear corner sensors: Approximately 1.0 ft. (30 cm)
lWhen two or more obstacles are detected simultaneously, the
beep system responds to the neare
st obstacle. If one or both come
within the above distances, the bee p will repeat a long tone, fol−
lowed by fast beeps.
l
You can change the volume of the warning beeps. ( P. 187)

Obstacle detection range
About 1.8 ft. (60 cm)
About 5.0 ft. (150 cm)
The detection area of the sensors
is shown to the left. If obstacles
move too close to the sensors,
they will not be detected.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape
of the object etc.

navigation system only)

nSensor detection information
lCertain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect
the ability of the sensor to correctly detect obstacles. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed below.
There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor. (Wiping the sensor will resolve
this problem.)
The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the sensor will resolve this problem.)
The sensor is covered in any way.
In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
When driving on bumpy, sloped or gravel roads, or over grass.
If there is something producing ultrasonic waves nearby, such as
another vehicle’s horn, motorcycle engine noise, air braking sound
from heavy−duty vehicles, or another vehicle using the park assist sys−
tem.
In heavy rain, or if water is splashed on the sensors.
The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
If a commercial fender pole or radio antenna is installed.
If moving towards a high curb or a curb corner.
If towing eyelet is installed on your vehicle.
The bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
A non−genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension etc.) is
installed.
In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shapes, signs and other objects may be judged by the sensor to be
closer than they are.
lThe shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles.
Thin objects such as wire, fencing or rope.
Objects that absorb sound waves, such as cotton or snow.
Objects with sharp corners.
Low objects.
Objects where the upper section projects out over the lower section.

CAUTION
nWhen using the Toyota park assist system
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely
and possibly cause an accident.
lDo not use the sensor at speeds in excess of 6 mph (10 km/h).
lWhen moving forward or reversing, always check your surroundings for
safety and drive carefully.
lDo not install accessories within the sensors’ detection areas.
NOTICE
nWhen washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.
