■If a warning message is dis-
played on the multi-information
display
A system may be temporarily
unavailable or there may be a mal-
function in the system.
●In the following situations, perform
the actions specif ied in the table.
When the normal operating condi-
tions are detecte d, the message
will disappear and the system will
become operational.
If the message does not disappear,
contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationActions
When the area
around a sensor
is covered with
dirt, moisture
(fogged up, cov-
ered with con-
densation, ice,
etc.), or other
foreign matter
To clean the part
of the wind-
shield in front of
the front camera,
use the wind-
shield wipers or
the windshield
defogger of the
air conditioning
system ( P.505,
512).When the tem-
perature around
the front camera
is outside of the
operational
range, such as
when the vehi-
cle is in the sun
or in an
extremely cold
environment
If the front cam-
era is hot, such
as after the vehi-
cle had been
parked in the
sun, use the air
conditioning sys-
tem to decrease
the temperature
around the front
camera.
If a sunshade
was used when
the vehicle was
parked, depend-
ing on its type,
the sunlight
reflected from
the surface of
the sunshade
may cause the
temperature of
the front camera
to become
excessively high.
If the front cam-
era is cold, such
as after the vehi-
cle is parked in
an extremely
cold environ-
ment, use the air
conditioning sys-
tem to increase
the temperature
around the front
camera.

■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are
limited to the areas around the
vehicle’ front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur
during use.
• Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the
detection distance may shorten, or
detection may be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if
static objects draw too close to the
sensor.
• There will be a short delay
between static object detection
and display (warning buzzer
sounds). Even at low speeds,
there is a possibilit y that the object
will come within 30 cm before the
display is shown and the warning
buzzer sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the
audio system or air flow noise of
the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the sound of this system due to the
buzzers of other systems.
■Conditions under which the
function may not function cor-
rectly
Certain vehicle conditions and the
surrounding environment may affect
the ability of a sensor to correctly
detect objects. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed
below.
●There is dirt, snow or ice on a sen-
sor. (Cleaning the sensors will
resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the
area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a
sensor is frozen the sensor dis-
play may be displayed abnormally,
or objects, such as a wall, may not
be detected.
●A sensor is covered in any way.
●When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on
an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy
due to vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines, air brakes of large vehi-
cles, or other lou
d noises produc-
ing ultrasonic waves.
●There is another vehicle equipped
with parking assist sensors in the
vicinity.
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●If a sensor is hit by a large amount
of water, such as when driving on
a flooded road.
●If the vehicle is significantly tilted.
●The vehicle is approaching a tall
or curved curb.
●If objects draw too close to the
sensor.
■Objects which may not be prop-
erly detected
The shape of the object may pre-
vent the sensor from detecting it.
Pay particular attent ion to the follow-
ing objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials
that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections
projecting outwards in the direc-
tion of your vehicle
People may not be detected if they
are wearing certain types of cloth-
ing.
■Certification (Canada only)
This ISM device complies with
Canadian ICES-001.

radar sensor is obstructed by an
adjacent vehicle
●If the vehicle is s ignificantly tilted
●When equipment that may
obstruct a sensor is installed, such
as a towing eyelet, bumper pro-
tector (an additional trim strip,
etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●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
●If a sticker or an electronic compo-
nent, such as a backlit license
plate (especially fluorescent type),
fog lights, fender pole or wireless antenna is installed near a radar
sensor
●If the orientation of a radar sensor
has been changed
●When multiple vehicles are
approaching with only a small gap
between each vehicle
●If a vehicle is approaching the rear
of your vehicle rapidly
●Situations in which the radar sen-
sor may not detect a vehicle
• When a vehicle approaches from
the right or left at the rear of the
vehicle while you are turning while
backing up
• When turning while backing up
• When backing out of a shallow angle parking spot
