1Check that the assist mode switch is
ON.
2Move your vehicle slowly to a position
parallel to the road or shoulder approx-
imately 3 ft. (1 m) away from parked
vehicles.
3Stop your vehicle in a position where
you can see the front edge of the lead-
ing parked vehicle right beside you,
with the steering wheel straight.
To facilitate the setting of the target park-
ing position, the front side sensors detect
the vehicles parked in front of and behind
the parking space and identify the target
parking position.
 If there is no leading parked vehicle, the
system will display the target parking posi-
tion (blue or red frame) in the position
used last time the parallel parking assist
mode was activated.

4Shift to “R”.
5Touch on the screen.
6Use the arrow to align the blue frame
with your target parking space, and
touch “OK”.
You can also move the blue frame by
touching the screen (area other than the
arrows).
 There are tricks to align the blue frame.
See “TIPS FOR SETTING THE TARGET
PARKING POSITION” on page 352.
 If the orientation of the frame is opposite
to that of the target parking space:
Touch .
 If the frame is displayed in red, you cannot
use the parallel parking assist mode to
park in that location. See “WHEN A RED
FRAME IS DISPLAYED IN THE ASSIST
MODE” on page 359.
 When the blue frame is displayed, if you
begin backing up without touching “OK”,
the message “Parking position has not
been set.” appears. If you continue to
back up, you will hear a warning tone and
the system will be disabled.
If the frame is red, there will be no guid-
ance even if you begin backing up.
 There may be times when, due to image
distortion, the blue frame does not match
the parking space lines on the road sur-
face. In this case, use the warning flag
and blue extension guide line to set the
target parking position.
CAUTION
●Be sure to stop the vehicle parallel to the
road or shoulder. If the vehicle is not
parallel, the assist location will be very
near the shoulder.
If it looks like the vehicle will hit or mount
the shoulder, depress the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle, and touch on the
screen to deactivate the system.

7Position yourself as you would when
backing up normally, and rest your
hands on the steering wheel without
applying any pressure. Check your
surroundings and behind the vehicle
for safety, and slowly back up, using
the brake pedal to control the vehicle’s
speed.
If you touch , assistance is canceled.
 If the vehicle’s backing up speed is too
fast, a warning tone will sound and the
message “! Vehicle is moving too fast.” will
be displayed. If you continue to back up at
that speed, the system will be disabled.
Back up at a speed that does not cause
the warning tone to sound.
 The blue frame displayed on the screen is
approximately the same size as your vehi-
cle. (The blue frame displayed when set-
ting the target parking position is the size
of a normal parking space.)
CAUTION
●The warning flag is only a guide. Be sure
to directly check your surroundings and
behind the vehicle for safety, and back
up carefully.
● Always check that there are no obsta-
cles in the blue frame or between your
vehicle and the parking space, and that
the warning flag and extension guide
line do not overlap any parked vehicles
or walls.
If there are obstacles in the blue frame
or between your vehicle and the parking
space, or the warning flag or extension
guide line overlaps a parked vehicle or
wall, there is a danger of collision. In this
case, do not use the parallel parking
assist mode. The same applies if the
blue frame overlaps the shoulder.
● If the road surface has level variations or
a gradient between the starting position
and target parking position, it will not be
possible to correctly set the location,
which may cause the parking position to
be misaligned or crooked. In this case,
do not use the parallel parking assist
mode.
CAUTION
●When the shift position has been shifted
to R (as in step 4 of “WHEN THE PRE-
SUPPORT FUNCTION IS NOT IN
USE”), if the perpendicular parking
assist mode screen on page 335 has
been switched to via the easy set func-
tion, touch to cancel.

8Once the vehicle is mostly within the
target parking position, voice guidance
will give a message, and parallel park-
ing assist mode will finish.
For safety, voice guidance is given slightly
before the target parking position. Further-
more, at that point system control will fin-
ish, so grip the steering wheel firmly, and
finish parking in the desired position, using
the brake to control the vehicle’s speed.
 Using the distance guide line as a refer-
ence, check in front and behind the vehi-
cle visually and check with the mirrors
while backing up.
CAUTION
●When backing up, be sure to check your
surroundings and behind the vehicle for
safety, and back up slowly, depressing
the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.
● If a collision seems likely, depress the
brake pedal to stop the vehicle, then dis-
able the system by touching on the
screen.

In this case, if you align the warning flag
with the rear of the forward parked vehi-
cle, and the blue extension guide line
with the lower edge of the parked vehi-
cle’s rear wheel when setting the target
parking position, the left side of your ve-
hicle will be roughly in line with the left
side of the front parked vehicle once as-
sisted parking is complete. (If you are
parallel parking on the opposite side of
the road, left and right will be reversed.)CAUTION
●If the parked vehicle is narrow, or parked
close to the shoulder, the assisted park-
ing position may be quite close to the
shoulder. If the vehicle seems likely to
hit or mount the shoulder, depress the
brake pedal to stop the vehicle, and dis-
able the system by touching .

The frame may be displayed in red, de-
pending on the location and angle of the
vehicle when
“R” is selected.
Furthermore, even if the frame is dis-
played in blue, if you move the frame to
a location unsuitable for parking using
the assist mode, the frame will change
to red.
WHEN A RED FRAME IS
DISPLAYED IN THE ASSIST
MODE
If the frame turns red and the message
“Adjust the frame to the target.” is dis-
played while setting the target parking
position, you cannot use the assist
mode.
In this situation, move the target park-
ing position, or move the position of the
vehicle.
