Buzzer and screen notifications when traveling at a low speed and an
approaching vehicle is detected at the rear
Purpose of the RCTA (Rear cross traffic alert) function
The RCTA function uses the BSM rear side radar sensors installed behind the rear
bumper. This function is intended to assist the driver in checking areas that are not
easily visible when backing up.
WARNING
■
Cautions regarding the use of the system
There is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control performance that this
system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for
paying attention to the vehicle’s surroundings and driving safely.
INFORMATION
■
The RCTA function is operational when
The RCTA function operates when all of the following conditions are met:
●
The engine switch is in ON.
●
The shift position is in R.
●
The vehicle speed is approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or less.
●
The approaching vehicle speed is between approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) and 35
mph (56 km/h).
■
Conditions under which the system will not detect a vehicle
The RCTA function is not designed to detect the following types of vehicles and/or
objects:
●
Vehicles approaching from directly behind
●
Vehicles backing up in a parking space next to your vehicle
●
Vehicles that the sensors cannot detect due to
obstructions
●
Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehicles and similar stationary objects

●
Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.
●
Vehicles moving away from your vehicle
●
Vehicles approaching from the parking spaces next to your vehicle
●
The distance between the sensor and approaching vehicle gets too close
■
Situations in which the system may not operate properly
The RCTA function may not detect vehicles correctly in the following situations:
●
When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding
area
●
When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc.,is covering the sensor or surrounding area on the
position above the rear bumper
●
When driving on a road surface that is wet with standing water during bad weather,
such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
●
When multiple vehicles are approaching with only a small gap between each vehicle
●
When a vehicle is approaching at high speed

Brake operation when an object is detected while approaching at low
speed
Purpose of the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system
The PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system consists of the following functions that
operate 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 is
high, a warning operates to urge the driver to take evasive action.
■
Parking assist function
The system can detect the following as detectable objects. (Detectable objects
differ depending on the function.)
●
Static Objects Front and Rear of the vehicle
●
Moving Vehicles Rear of the Vehicle
●
Pedestrians Rear of the Vehicle
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 accident. 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 sensors 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 PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system is designed
to provide support to lessen the severity of collisions. However, it may not operate in
some situations.
●
The PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system is not designed to stop the vehicle com-
pletely. Additionally, even if the system has stopped the vehicle, it is necessary to
depress the brake pedal immediately as brake control will be canceled after approxi-
mately 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.

WARNING
■
When to disable the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system
In the following situations, disable the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) as the system may
operate even though there is no possibility of a collision.
●
When inspecting the vehicle using a chassis roller, chassis dynamo or free roller
●
When loading the vehicle onto a boat, truck or other transport vessel
●
If the suspension has been modified or tires of a size other than specified are installed
●
If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load
●
When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing eyelet,
bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●
When using automatic car washing devices
●
If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehicle has been in
an accident or is malfunctioning
●
When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●
When the tires are not properly inflated
●
When the tires are very worn
●
When a tire chains, compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair kit is
used
■
Precautions for the suspension
Do not modify the suspension of the vehicle. If the height or tilt of the vehicle is changed,
the sensors may not be able to detect detectable objects and the system may not operate
correctly, possibly leading to an accident.
■
System overview
If the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) determines that a collision with a detected
object or pedestrian is possible, the engine output will be restricted to restrain
any increase in the vehicle speed. (Engine 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 control: See figure 3.)

INFORMATION
■
If the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system has operated
If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of the PKSB (Parking Support Brake), the PKSB
(Parking Support Brake) will be disabled and the driving assist infomation indicator will
illuminate.
If the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system operates unnecessarily, brake control can
be canceled by depressing the brake pedal or waiting approximately 2 seconds for
it to automatically be canceled. Then, the vehicle can be operated by depressing the
accelerator pedal.
■
Re-enabling the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) system
To re-enable the PKSB (Parking Support Brake) when it has been disabled due to
operation of the PKSB (Parking Support Brake), either enable the system again, or turn
the engine switch off and then back to ON.
Additionally, if any of the following conditions are met, the system will be re-enabled
automatically and the driving assist infomation indicator will turn off:
●
The P shift position is selected
●
The object is no longer detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle
●
The traveling direction of the vehicle changes
