WA R N I N G
■Caution while driving
Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving.
Doing so may cause the driver to
mishandle the vehicle and cause
an accident, resul ting in death or
serious injury.
■After adjusting the steering
wheel
Make sure that the steering wheel
is securely locked.
Otherwise, the steering wheel
may move suddenly, possibly
causing an accident, and resulting
in death or seriou s injury. Also,

locked.
Sounding the horn

2744-5. Using the driving support systems
• 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 l oud 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 sig nificantly 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.
■Detection range of the sen-
sors
Approximately 3.3 ft. (100
cm)
Approximately 4.9 ft. (150

2864-5. Using the driving support systems
parking assist system is enabled or
not ( P.271), if the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) is
enabled ( P.278), the fr ont or rear
sensors detect an object and brake
control and engine output restric-
tion control are performed, the intui-
tive parking assist buzzer will sound
to notify the driv er of the approxi-
mate distance to the object.
■Situations in which the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) may op erate even if
there is no possibility of a colli-
sion
In some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) may operate
even though there is no possibility of
a collision.
●Vehicle surroundings
• When driving on a narrow road

• When driving toward a banner, flag, low-hanging branch or boom
barrier (such as those used at rail-
road crossings, toll gates and
parking lots)
• When there is a structure on the roadside (such as when driving in
a narrow tunnel, on a narrow
bridge or on a narrow road) • When parallel parking

• When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
• Strong wind is blowing
●Other sonic wave sources
• When vehicle horns, vehicle
detectors, motorcycle engines, air
brakes of large vehicles, the clear-
ance sonar of ot her vehicles or
other devices which produce ultra-
sonic waves are near the vehicle
• 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 sensor

●Changes in the vehicle posture
• If the vehicle is significantly tilted
• If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load
• If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due t o a collision or
other impact

minals may be disconnected.
 There may be a malfunction
in the steering lock system
(vehicles with smart key sys-
tem).
Contact your Toyota dealer if the
problem cannot be repaired, or if
repair procedures are unknown. When the engine does not start,
the following steps can be used
as an interim measure to start
the engine if the engine switch is
functioning normally:
