WARNING
■Stopping the hybrid system
in an emergency
●If you want to stop the hybrid
system in an emergency while
driving the vehicle, press and
hold the power switch for more
than 2 seconds, or press it
briefly 3 times or more in suc-
cession. ( P.459)
However, do not touch the
power switch while driving
except in an emergency. Turn-
ing the hybrid system off while
driving will not cause loss of
steering or braking control, how-
ever, power assist for the steer-
ing wheel may be lost making it
difficult to steer smoothly before
stopping the vehicle depending
on the remaining charge in the
12-volt battery or usage condi-
tions. In this situation, you
should pull over and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.
●If the power switch is operated
while the vehicle is running, a
warning message will be shown
on the multi-information display
and a buzzer sounds.
●When restarting the hybrid sys-
tem after an emergency shut-
down, shift the shift lever to N
and press the power switch
shortly and firmly.
■When parking
Exhaust gases include harmful
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless and odorless. Observe
the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause
exhaust gases to enter the vehicle
and may lead to an accident
caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious
health hazard.
●If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-
lated area or a closed area,
such as a garage, stop the
hybrid system.
●Do not leave the vehicle with
the hybrid system operating for
a long time. If such a situation
cannot be avoided, park the
vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do
not enter the ve hicle interior.
●Do not leave the hybrid system
operating in an area with snow
build-up, or where it is snowing.
If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the hybrid sys-
tem is operating, exhaust gases
may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.

WARNING
■Intuitive parking assist pre-
cautions
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failing to do so may result in the
vehicle being unable to be driven
safely and possibly cause an acci-
dent.
●Do not use the sensor at
speeds in excess of approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h).
●The sensors’ detection areas
and reaction times are limited.
When moving forward or revers-
ing, check the areas surround-
ing the vehicle (especially the
sides of the vehicle) for safety,
and drive slowly, using the
brake to control the vehicle’s
speed.
●Do not install accessories near
the bumpers as those areas are
within the sensors’ detection
areas.
●The area directly under the
bumpers is not detected.
Thin posts or objects lower than
the sensor may not be detected
when approached, even if they
have been detected once.
■When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable
the function as it may operate
even though there is no possibility
of a collision.
●The vehicle is equipped with a
commercial fender pole, wire-
less antenna or fog lights.
●The front or rear bumper or a
sensor receives a strong
impact.
●A non-genuine Toyota suspen-
sion (lowered suspension, etc.)
is installed.

■If “Parking Assist Unavailable
Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display
A sensor may be co vered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. Remove the ice,
snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to
return the system to normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor
at low temperatures, a warning
message may be displayed or the
sensor may not be able to detect an
object. Once the ice melts, the sys-
tem will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed
even if the sensor i s clean, there
may be a sensor malfunction. Have
the vehicle insp ected by your
Toyota dealer.
■If “Parking Assist Unavailable”
is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display
Water may be continuously flowing
over the sensor surface, such as in
a heavy rain. When the system
determines that it is normal, the sys-
tem will return to normal.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are
limited to the areas around the
vehicle’s 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
WARNING
●A backlit license plate is
installed.
■When using the intuitive park-
ing assist
In the following situations, the
system may not function correctly
due to a sensor mal function, etc.
Have the vehicle checked by your
Toyota dealer.
●The intuitive parking assist
operation display flashes or
shows continuously, and a
buzzer sounds when no objects
are detected.
●If the area around a sensor col-
lides with something, or is sub-
jected to strong impact.
●If the bumper or grille collides
with something.
●If the display flashes or is dis-
played continuously and a
buzzer does not sound, except
when the mute function has
been turned on.
■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.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sens or to malfunc-
tion.

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 approximately
11.9 in. (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 abnor-
mally, 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 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 atte ntion to the fol-
lowing 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.

■Detection range of the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects)
The detection range of the Parking
Support Brake function (static
objects) differs from the detection
range of the intuiti ve parking assist.
(  P.313) Therefore, even if the
intuitive parking assist detects an
object and provides a warning, the
Parking Support Brake function
(static objects) may not start operat-
ing.

port Brake function (static
objects) may not detect
The sensors may not be able to
detect certain objects, such as the
following:
●Pedestrian
●Cotton, snow, and other materials
that are poor re flectors of sonic
waves
●Objects which are not perpendicu-
lar to the ground, are not perpen-
dicular to the traveling direction of
the vehicle, are uneven or are
waving
●Low objects
●Thin objects such as wires,
fences, ropes and signposts
●Objects that are e xtremely close
to the bumper
●Sharply-angled objects
