The front corner sensors and reverse sensors are the system that
uses the sonar to recognize the approximate distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle, and that notifies the driver of its presence
by the buzzer and display indica tors when the vehicle speed is
approx. 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
Sonar positions and types
a Front sonar
The front corner sensors are used to
recognize necessary information.
bRear sonar
The reverse sensors are used to recog-
nize necessary information.

How to read the distance display
When an obstacle is recognized while all the activation conditions are sat-
isfied, the driver is notified of its presence by the buzzer and display indi-
cators.
⚫The buzzer will sound when the parking brake is not applied.
⚫When the distance to the obstacle becomes shorter, the buzzer and dis-
play indicators will change, as shown in the figure below.
▶Vehicles with multi-information display
▶Vehicles with TFT color multi-information display
⚫When sonar has recognized more than one obstacle simultaneously, the
buzzer for the closest obstacle will sound.

Sonar’s obstacle recognition range
The recognition areas are shown in
the right figure.
However, if the obstacle is too close
to the sonar, the recognition fails.
Depending on the obstacles’ shape
and conditions, the recognition
range may become shorter, or the
recognition may fail.
⬛Operating conditions
⚫Front corner sensors:
⦁When the engine switch is “ON”
⦁ When the front corner sensors/reverse sensors switch is ON
⦁ When the shift lever is set in other than P, and the vehicle speed is approx.
10 km/h or less
⚫Reverse sensors:
⦁When the engine switch is “ON”
⦁ Vehicles with front corner sensors:
When the front corner sensors/reverse sensors switch is ON
⦁ When the shift lever is set in R, and the vehicle speed is approx. 10 km/h or
less
⚫When an obstacle is recognized with all the activation conditions satisfied
and the parking brake not being applied, the buzzer will sound.
⬛Sonar recognition capabilities
⚫The sonar recognition range is limited to the area around the sonar on the
front side of the vehicle and th e rear bumper of the vehicle.
⚫It takes some time from when the sonar recognizes an obstacle until the
front corner sensors or reverse sensors become activated. If the vehicle gets
too close to the obstacle before the buzzers sounds, the buzzer may not
sound even when the vehicle is traveling at a slow speed.
⚫While the audio or air conditioning system is turned on, the music or fan
noise makes the buzzer sound difficult to hear.

⬛When the high-pitch short beeps sound 3 times repeatedly and the front
corner sensor or reverse sensor ON indicator appears at 2 front locations
or 2 rear locations (or all 4 locations) simultaneously
⚫The front corner sensor or reverse se nsor functionality has been degraded.
When the front corner sensor or re verse sensor functionality temporarily
turns off, check if the sonar is not cove red with rain, snow, ice, or dirt. Remove
those attached to it, then wait for the f unctionality to be restored to normal.
⚫If the master warning light turns on at this time, it may indicate a malfunc-
tion of the system. Have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
⚫Vehicles with TFT color multi-informati on display: Depending on the condi-
tions, the warning messages as “Son ar Sensor Function Stop” and “Sonar
Sensor Malfunction Visit Your Dealer” will be displayed.

In the following cases, the system ma y become activated even when there is
no obstacle within the operating range.
⚫When driving an area where the road slopes suddenly change
⚫When passing through plastic curtains or driving under flags
⚫When water splashes or drifting snow whirls up
⚫When passing an obstacle at close range
⚫When using an elevator for automobiles or using a mechanical parking lot
⚫When driving over a bump with an obstacle near the vehicle
⚫When there is an obstacle near the side of the vehicle
⚫When the road surface has large bumps, curbstones or protrusions, or when
the ground surface has tire tracks and holes
⚫When entering into a tight space
⚫During pouring rain or when water splashes over the vehicle
⚫Bad weather (heavy rain, snowstorm, fog, etc.)
⚫When the following is present near the vehicle: the sound of other vehicles’
horns, motorcycle engines, and air brakes of large vehicles, the devices emitting
ultrasonic waves, such as vehicle detect ors, or sonar systems of other vehicles
⚫When commercially available electrical components (such as an internally illu-
minated number plate, radio antenna) are installed near the sonar sensors
⚫When the vehicle body has been considerably tilted
⚫When the vehicle height has significantly changed by the load conditions, etc.

WARNING
⬛Before using the front corner sensors or reverse sensors
Make sure to observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so is dangerous, as it may lead to an unforeseen accident.
⚫Do not let the vehicle speed exceed approx. 10 km/h (6 mph).
⚫There is a limit to the sonar’s recognition range and activation speed. When
you move your vehicle forward or backward, make sure to check the safety
around the vehicle, which is outside the sonar’s recognition range (especially
the sides of the vehicle), use the brak e pedal to control the speed adequately
and drive slowly.
⚫Do not paste stickers or install accesso ries on the sonar sensors or their sur-
rounding areas.
⚫Vehicles with TFT color multi-informa tion display: If the warning message
“Sonar Sensor Function Stop” appears, check the sonar conditions. If the
warning message appears even when the sonar is not covered with rain,
snow, ice, or dirt, it could be due to a malfunction of the front corner sensors
or reverse sensors. Have the vehicl e inspected at your Toyota dealer.
⬛Front corner sensors and reverse sensors
In the following situations, the front corner sensors or reverse sensors may
not work normally and could lead to an unforeseen accident. Make sure to
drive carefully.
⚫Road conditions (slopes, unevenness, etc.)
⚫Vehicle’s maintenance conditions (brake-r elated issues, worn out tires, infla-
tion pressure, driving on a spare tire, etc.)
⚫Bad weather (heavy rain, snowstorm, fog, etc.)
⚫When the vehicle is signif icantly tilted by carrying a heavy load or being on
the surface with different height, or when the vehicle height has significantly
changed
⚫Distance from the obstacle, orientatio n or position (the obstacle is located
near the center of the vehicle)
⚫When driving on a steep slope
⚫When the sonar system cannot recognize the obstacle correctly (the follow-
ing cases in particular)
⦁ When an obstacle is extremely clos e to the sonar (when approaching too
close to the obstacle, the buzzer may change from continuous sound to
intermittent sound)
⦁ When an obstacle is located at a high position from the ground
⦁ Short obstacles
⦁ Small obstacles (such as small animals and infants), narrow obstacles
