3665-5. Using the driving support systems
If the Parking Support Brake
determines that a collision with a
detected object is possible, the
hybrid system output will be
restricted to restrain any
increase in the vehicle speed.
(Hybrid system output restriction
control: See figure 2.)
Additionally, if the accelerator
pedal continues to be
depressed, the brakes will be
applied automatically to reduce
the vehicle speed. (Brake con-
trol: See figure 3.)

high)
■If the Parking Support Brake
has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to oper-
ation of the Parki ng Support Brake,
the Parking Suppor t Brake will be
disabled and the PKSB OFF indica-
tor will illuminate. If the Parking Sup-
port Brake operates unnecessarily,
brake control can be canceled by
depressing the brake pedal or wait-
ing for approximately 2 seconds for
it to automatically be canceled.
Then, the vehicle can be operated
by depressing the accelerator pedal.
■Re-enabling the Parking Sup-
port Brake
To re-enable the Parking Support
Brake when it is disabled due to
operation of the Parking Support
Brake, either enable the system
again ( P.364), or turn the power
switch off and then back to ON.
Additionally, if the object becomes
no longer in the traveling direction of
the vehicle or if the traveling direc-
tion of the vehicle changes (such as
changing from moving forward to
backing up, or from backing up to
moving forward) , the system will be
re-enabled automatically.
■If “Parking Support Brake
Unavailable” i s displayed on
the multi-information display
and the PKSB OFF indicator
illuminates
●If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed simultaneously, a sen-
sor may be covered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. In this case,
remove the ice, s now, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the sys-
tem to normal. If this message is
shown even after removing dirt from the sensor, or shown when
the sensor was not dirty to begin
with, have the vehicle inspected at
your Toyota dealer.
●If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is
displayed simultaneously, water
may be continuously flowing over
the sensor surface, such as in a
heavy rain. When the system
determines that it is normal, the
system will return to normal.

If the sensors detect a static
object, such as a wall, in the
traveling direction of the
vehicle and the system
determines that a collision
may occur due to the vehi-
cle suddenly moving for-
ward due to an accidental
accelerator pedal opera-
tion, the vehicle moving the
unintended direction due to
the wrong shift position
being selected, or while
parking or traveling at low
speeds, the system will
operate to lessen the impact
with the detected static
object and reduce the
resulting damage.

Types of sensors
WARNING
■To ensure the Parking Sup-
port Brake can operate prop-
erly
Observe the following precautions
regarding the sensors ( P.356).
Failure to do so may cause a sen-
sor to not operate properly, and
may cause an accident.
●Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
●Do not replace a sensor with a
part other than a genuine part.
●Do not subject a sensor or its
surrounding area to a strong
impact.
●Do not damage the sensors,
and always keep them clean.
●If the area around a radar sen-
sor is subjected to an impact,
the system may not operate
properly due to a sensor mal-
function. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclina-
tion of the vehic le may prevent
the sensors from detecting
objects correctly or cause the sys-
tem to not operate or operate
unnecessarily.
■If the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) oper-
ates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad crossing
In the event that the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects)
operates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad crossing, brake con-
trol will be canceled after approxi-
mately 2 seconds, allowing you to
proceed forward and leave the
area, brake control can also be
canceled by depressing the brake
pedal. Depressing the accelera-
tor pedal after brake control is
canceled will allow you to proceed
forward and leave the area.
■Notes when washing the vehi-
cle
Do not apply intensive bursts of
water or steam to the sensor
area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do
not spray the sensors directly,
as doing so may cause a sensor
to malfunction.
