■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.
■Objects that the Parking Sup-
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
