■

Situations in which the system

may not operate properly

●

Some pedestrians, such as the

following, may not be detected by

the rear camera detection func-

tion, preventing the function from

operating properly:

• Pedestrians who are bending for-

ward or squatting

• Pedestrians who are lying down

• Pedestrians who are running

• Pedestrians who suddenly enter

the detection area

• People riding a bicycle, skate-

board, or other light vehicle

• Pedestrians wearing oversized

clothing such as a rain coat, long

skirt, etc., making their silhouette

obscure

• Pedestrians whose body is par-

tially hidden by an object, such as

a cart or umbrella

• Pedestrians which are obscured

by darkness, such as at night

●

In some situations, such as the

following, pedestrians may not be

detected by the rear camera

detection function, preventing the

function from operating properly:

• When backing up in inclement

weather (rain, snow, fog, etc.)

• When the rear camera is

obscured (dirt, snow, ice, etc., are

attached) or scratched

• When a very bright light, such as

the sun, or the headlights of

another vehicle, shines directly

into the rear camera

• When backing up in a place where

the surrounding brightness

changes suddenly, such as at the

entrance or exit of a garage or

underground parking lot

• When backing up in a dim envi-

ronment such as during dusk or in

an underground parking lot

• When the camera position and

direction are deviated

• When a towing hook is attached

• When water droplets are flowing

on the camera lens

• When the vehicle height is

extremely changed (nose up,

nose down).

• When tire chains or an emergency

tire puncture repair kit is used

■

Situations in which the system

may operate unexpectedly

●

Even though there are no pedes-

trians in the detection area, some

objects, such as the following,

may be detected, possibly caus-

ing the rear camera detection

function to operate.

• Three dimensional objects, such

as a pole, traffic cone, fence, or

parked vehicle

• Moving objects, such as a car or

272

5-5. Using the driving support systems

motorcycle

• Objects moving toward your vehi-

cle when backing up, such as

flags or puddles (or airborne mat-

ter, such as smoke, steam, rain, or

snow)

• Cobblestone or gravel roads, tram

rails, road repairs, white lines,

pedestrian crossings or fallen

leaves on the road

• Metal covers (gratings), such as

those used for drainage ditches

• Objects reflected in a puddle or on

a wet road surface

• Shadows on the road

●

In some situations, such as the

following, the rear camera detec-

tion function may operate even

though there are no pedestrians in

the detection area.

• When backing up toward the road-

side or a bump on the road

• When backing up toward an

incline/decline

• If the rear of the vehicle is raised

or lowered due to the carried load

• If a bumper protector, such as an

additional trim strip, is installed to

the rear bumper

• If the orientation of the rear cam-

era has been changed

• If a towing eyelet is installed to the

rear of the vehicle

• When water is flowing over the

rear camera lens

• When the rear camera is

obscured (dirt, snow, ice, etc., are

attached) or scratched

• If there is a flashing light in the

detection area, such as the emer-

gency flashers of another vehicle

• When a tire chains or an emer-

gency tire puncture repair kit is

used

●

Situations in which the rear cam-

era detection function may be diffi-

cult to notice

• The buzzer may be difficult to hear

if the surrounding area is noisy,

the volume of the audio system

volume is high, the air condition-

ing system is being used, etc.

• If the temperature in the cabin is

extremely high or low, the audio

system screen may not operate

correctly.

*

The Parking Support Brake
system consists of the fol-
lowing functions that oper-
ate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such
as when parking. When the
system determines that the
probability of a collision
with a detected object or
pedestrian is high, a warn-
ing operates to urge the
driver to take evasive
action. If the system deter-
mines that the possibility of
a collision with a detected
object or pedestrian is
extremely high, the brakes
are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or
help reduce the impact of
the collision.

PKSB (Parking Support
Brake) system

WARNING

■

Cautions regarding the use of

the system

Do not overly rely on the system,

as doing so may lead to an acci-

dent.
Always drive while checking the

safety of the surroundings of the

vehicle.
Depending on the vehicle and

road conditions, weather, etc., the

system may not operate.
The detection capabilities of sen-

sors and radars are limited.

Always drive while checking the

safety of the surroundings of the

vehicle.

●

The driver is solely responsible

for safe driving. Always drive

carefully, taking care to observe

your surroundings. The Parking

Support Brake system is

designed to provide support to

lessen the severity of collisions.

However, it may not operate in

some situations.

●

The Parking Support Brake sys-

tem is not designed to stop the

vehicle completely. Additionally,

even if the system has stopped

the vehicle, it is necessary to

depress the brake pedal imme-

diately as brake control will be

canceled after approximately 2

seconds.

●

It is extremely dangerous to

check the system operations by

intentionally driving the vehicle

into the direction of a wall, etc.

Never attempt such actions.

Function description

The Advanced Park assists in
backing into or parallel parking
in a spot selected on the multi-
media display, or departing from
a parking space, by delivering
operation guidance through dis-
plays and buzzer operation, as
well as changing the shift posi-
tion, operating the steering
wheel, accelerator pedal, and
brake pedal.
Additionally, the panoramic view
monitor can display the area in
front, behind, and from above
the vehicle, helping confirm the
condition of the area around the
vehicle. For details on the pan-
oramic view monitor refer to the
“NAVIGATION AND MULTIME-
DIA SYSTEM OWNER’S MAN-
UAL”.
Depending on the condition of
the road surface or the vehicle,
the distance between the vehi-
cle and a parking space, etc., it
may not be possible to assist in
parking in the target space.

WARNING

■

When using the Advanced

Park

●

Do not overly rely on the

Advanced Park. As with a nor-

mal vehicle, take care to

observe your surroundings

while the vehicle is moving.

●

Always pay attention to the

vehicle’s surroundings while

operating.

●

The Advanced Park supports

the driver when parking and

leaving a parking space. While

checking the safety of the area

around the vehicle, make sure

to depress the brake pedal as

necessary to slow or stop the

vehicle.

●

As low objects (curb stones,

parking blocks, etc.) may not be

detected, make sure to check

the safety of the area around

your vehicle and depress the

brake pedal to stop the vehicle if

it may collide with an object.

●

While the Advanced Park is

operating, if it is likely that your

vehicle will collide with a nearby

vehicle, parking block, object, or

person, depress the brake

pedal to stop the vehicle and

press the advance park main

switch to disable.

●

Never use only the multimedia

display to view the area behind

the vehicle. The image dis-

played may differ than the

actual situation. Using only the

screen when backing up may

lead to an accident, such as a

collision with another vehicle.

When backing up, make sure to

look directly or use the mirrors

to check the safety of the area

around your vehicle, especially

behind the vehicle.

●

As Advanced Park is designed

to assist in parking the vehicle

in a set parking space, depend-

ing on the condition of the road

surface or the vehicle, the dis-

tance between the vehicle and a

parking space, etc., it may not

be possible to detect a parking

space or may not be able to pro-

vide assistance to the point the

vehicle is fully parked.

●

In situations such as the follow-

ing, it may not be possible for

the Advanced Park to provide

assistance to the selected park-

ing spot:

worn or the tire inflation pres-

sure is low

• When carrying a heavy load

• When the vehicle is tilted due to

the carried load

• When a heater is installed in the

surface of the parking space

(road surface freeze prevention

heater)

• When the wheels are mis-

aligned, such after a wheels has

been subjected to a strong

impact

If the vehicle deviates greatly from
the set parking space in any situa-
tion other than the above, have
the vehicle inspected by your Toy-
ota dealer.

frequently operates, Active Cor-

nering Assist may temporarily

stop operating to ensure proper

operation of the brakes, TRAC

and VSC.

■

Hill-start assist control does

not operate effectively when

●

Do not overly rely on hill-start

assist control. Hill-start assist

control may not operate effec-

tively on steep inclines and

roads covered with ice.

●

Unlike the parking brake, hill-

start assist control is not

intended to hold the vehicle sta-

tionary for an extended period

of time. Do not attempt to use

hill-start assist control to hold

the vehicle on an incline, as

doing so may lead to an acci-

dent.

■

When the TRAC/ABS/VSC is

activated

The slip indicator light flashes.

Always drive carefully. Reckless

driving may cause an accident.

Exercise particular care when the

indicator light flashes.

■

When the TRAC/VSC systems

are turned off

Be especially careful and drive at

a speed appropriate to the road

conditions. As these are the sys-

tems to help ensure vehicle stabil-

ity and driving force, do not turn

the TRAC/VSC systems off

unless necessary.

■

Secondary Collision Brake

Do not rely solely upon the Sec-

ondary Collision Brake. This sys-

tem is designed to help reduce

the possibility of further damage

due to a secondary collision, how-

ever, that effect changes accord-

ing to various conditions. Overly

relying on the system may result

in death or serious injury.

■

Replacing tires

Make sure that all tires are of the

specified size, brand, tread pat-

tern and total load capacity. In

addition, make sure that the tires

are inflated to the recommended

tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC sys-

tems will not function correctly if

different tires are installed on the

vehicle.

Contact your Toyota dealer for fur-

ther information when replacing

tires or wheels.

keep a safe distance between
you and the vehicle ahead, and
drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.

Park the vehicle and shift the
shift position to P without setting
the parking brake. The parking
brake may freeze up, preventing
it from being released. If the
vehicle is parked without setting
the parking brake, make sure to
block the wheels.

Failure to do so may be danger-
ous because it may cause the
vehicle to move unexpectedly,
possibly leading to an accident.

Use the correct tire chain size
when mounting the tire chains.
Chain size is regulated for each
tire size.

Side chain (0.12 in. [3 mm] in
diameter)

Cross chain (0.16 in. [4 mm]
in diameter)

Regulations regarding the use
of tire chains vary depending on
location and type of road.
Always check local regulations
before installing chains.
