■The Parking Support Brake
function (static object) will
operate when
The function will op erate when the
PKSB OFF indicator is not illumi-
nated or flashing ( P.89, 504) and
all of the followin g conditions are
met:
●Hybrid system output restriction
control
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approxi- mately 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
• There is a static object in the trav- eling direction of the vehicle and
approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m)
away.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that a stronger-than-nor-
mal brake operation is necessary
to avoid a collision.
●Brake control
• Hybrid system output restriction control is operating.
• The Parking Support Brake deter- mines that an immediate brake
operation is necessary to avoid a
collision.
WARNING
●Do not subject the surrounding
area of the sensor to a strong
impact. If subjected to an
impact, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer. If the fr ont or rear
bumper needs to be
removed/installed or replaced,
contact your Toyota dealer.
●Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
●Do not attach a license plate
cover.
●Keep your tires properly
inflated.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclina-
tion of the vehicle 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 cross ing, brake con-
trol will be cancele d 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.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.

completely. The transfer mode
disengages both the front and
rear driveshafts from the power-
train and allows the vehicle to
move regardless of the shift posi-
tion. (At this time, the indicator
blinks and the buzzer sounds.)
Therefore, the vehicle is free to
roll even if the automatic trans-
mission is in P. You or someone
else could be seriously injured.
You must complete the shifting of
the transfer mode before placing
transmission in P.
