may move suddenly, possibly
causing an accident, and resulting
in death or seriou s injury. Also,
the horn may not sound if the
steering wheel is not securely
locked.
Sounding the horn

2944-5. Using the driving support systems
●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 loud 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 attention 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
cm)
Approximately 2.1 ft. (63 cm)
The diagram shows the detection
range of the sensors. Note that the
sensors cannot detect objects that
are extremely clos e to the vehicle.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape of
the object, etc.
■Distance display
When an object is detected by a sensor, the approximate distanc e to
the object will be displayed on th e multi-information display, naviga-
tion system (if equipped) or multimedia system (if equipped) sc reen.
(As the distance to the object becomes short, the distance segm ents

3064-5. Using the driving support systems
■Intuitive parking assist buzzer
Regardless of whether the intuitive
parking assist syste m is enabled or
not ( P.291), if the Parking Support
Brake function (static objects) is
enabled ( P.298), the fr ont or rear
sensors detect an object and brake
control and hybrid system output
restriction control are performed, the
intuitive parking assist buzzer will
sound to notify the driver of the
approximate distanc e to the object.
■Situations in which the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) may operate 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 on a gravel road or in an area with tall grass
• 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 there is a rut or hole in the
surface of the road
• When driving on a metal cover
(grating), such as those used for
drainage ditches
• When driving up or down a steep
slope
• If a sensor is hit by a large amount of water, such as when driving on
a flooded road
• When loaded on ships or trucks
• Moving type automatic car wash
• Lift type parking area or multi- story parking lot
• Underground parking area
• Structures on the ground (speed
bumps, cat’s eyes, etc.)
• Differences in height
• When moving straight ahead or
turning right
• Snow-melting pipes
• Devices for detecting vehicles,
such as traffic lights, devices for
detecting traffic congestion, or
devices for detecting empty
spaces in parking areas
• Railroad tracks
• H-shaped steel
• When there are vehicles on both sides, or there is a vehicle that
resembles this vehicle
●Weather
• If a sensor is covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. (when cleared, the
system will return to normal)
• If heavy rain or water strikes a sensor
• 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
■Situations in which the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) may not operate prop-
erly
In some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, this function may not oper-
ate properly.
●Weather
• When a sensor or the area around a sensor is extremely hot or cold
• When strong winds are blowing
• If a sensor is covered with ice, snow, dirt, etc. (when cleared, the
system will return to normal)
• If heavy rain or water strikes a sensor
• When driving in inclement weather
such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
• A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
●Vehicle surroundings
• When an object that cannot be detected is betw een the vehicle
and a detected object • If an object such as a vehicle,
motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian
cuts in front of the vehicle or runs
out from the side of the vehicle
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.
• On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
• The objects draw too close to the

6608-2. Steps to take in an emergency
One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:
The electronic key may not be
functioning properly.
( P.663)
 There may not be sufficient
fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle. ( P.240)
 There may be a malfunction
in the immobilizer system.
( P. 8 2 )
 There may be a malfunction
in the steering lock system.
 The hybrid system may be
malfunctioning due to an elec-
trical problem such as elec-
tronic key battery depletion or
a blown fuse. However,
depending on the type of mal-
function, an interim measure
is available to start the hybrid
system. ( P.660) One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:

The 12-volt battery may be
discharged. ( P.665)
 The 12-volt battery terminal
connections may be loose or
corroded. ( P.586)
One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:
 The 12-volt battery may be
discharged. ( P.665)
 One or both of the 12-volt bat-
tery terminals may be discon-
nected. ( P.586)
Contact your Toyota dealer if the
problem cannot be repaired, or if
repair procedures are unknown.
When the hybrid system does
not start, the following steps can
be used as an interim measure
to start the hybrid system if the
power switch is functioning nor-
mally.
If the hybrid system
will not start
Reasons for the hybrid sys-
tem not starting vary
depending on the situation.
Check the following and
perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not
start even though the cor-
rect starting procedure is
being followed ( P.210,
212)
The interior lights and
headlights are dim, or the
horn does not sound or
sounds at a low volume
The interior lights and
headlights do not turn on,
or the horn does not
sound

other types of warning buzzer
may also sound. (P.636, 647)
 Did anyone inside the vehicle
open a door during setting the
alarm?
The sensor detects it and the
alarm sounds. ( P.85)
To stop the alarm, turn the power
switch to ON or start the hybrid sys-
tem.
 Is the message displayed on
the multi-information display?
Check the message on the
multi-information display.
( P.647)
 When a warning light turns on
or a warning message is dis-
played, refer to P.636, 647.
 Stop the vehicle in a safe
place and replace the flat tire with the spare tire. (

 Try the procedure for when
the vehicle becomes stuck in
mud, dirt, or snow. ( P.674)
An alarm is activated and
the horn sounds (if
equipped)
A warning buzzer sounds
when leaving the vehicle
