these systems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which
could result in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional, immediately if this occurs.

A beep sounds when the corner sensors and rear center sensors
are operating.
The buzzer beeps faster as the vehicle approaches an obstacle.
When the vehicle comes within the following distance of the obsta-
cle, the buzzer sounds continuously:
• Front corner sensors: Approximately 25 cm (0.8 ft.)
• Rear corner sensors: Approximately 30 cm (1.0 ft.)
• Rear center sensors: Approximately 50 cm (1.6 ft.)
When 2 or more obstacles are detected simultaneously, the beep
system responds to the nearest obstacle. If one or both come
within the above distances, the beep will repeat a long tone, fol-
lowed by fast beeps.
You can change the volume of the warning beeps. (P. 243)

The shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction
of your vehicle
The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detec-
tion distance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
• Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor
• There will be a short delay between obstacle detection and display.
Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the obstacle will come
within the sensor’s detection areas before the display is shown and the
warning beep sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected for
collision when approached, even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of audio system or
air flow noise of air conditioning system.

Propeller shaft noise
If the vehicle height is adjusted on a slope, or with the shift lever in a position
other than “P” or “N” while the vehicle is stopped, you may hear a sound
caused by the expansion and contraction of the propeller shaft. This does
not indicate a malfunction.
4-Wheel AHC failure warning
If a malfunction occurs in the 4-Wheel AHC, normal mode is automatically
selected. However, the system may not switch to normal mode depending
on the location of the malfunction.
The warning message is displayed on the multi-information display, and the
4-Wheel AHC cannot be activated until the malfunction is corrected.
Stop the engine and start it again. If the warning message turns off, the sys-
tem is operating correctly. If the warning message continues to be displayed,
have the vehicle checked at any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as possible.
