Brake)

*

The 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 deter-
mines that the possibility of a colli-
sion with a detected object is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action. If the system
determines that the possibility of a
collision with a detected object 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 sys-

tem

Do not overly rely on the system, as

doing so may lead to an accident.

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 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 immedi-

ately 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.

When to disable the Parking Support

Brake

In the following situations, disable the

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 addi-

tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or

snow plow

When using automatic car washing

devices

If the vehicle cannot be driven in a sta-

ble manner, such as when the vehicle

has been in an accident or is malfunc-

tioning

the vehicle and the system determines that a collision may occur due to the
vehicle suddenly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal oper-
ation, the vehicle moving the unintended direction due to the wrong shift lever
position, or while parking or traveling at low speeds, the system will operate to
lessen the impact with the detected static object and reduce the resulting
damage.

hill-start assist control systems

A sound may be heard from the engine

compartment when the brake pedal is

depressed repeatedly, when the engine is

started or just after the vehicle begins to

move. This sound does not indicate that a

malfunction has occurred in any of these

systems.

Any of the following conditions may

occur when the above systems are oper-

ating. None of these indicates that a mal-

function has occurred.

• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle

body and steering.

• A motor sound may be heard also after

the vehicle comes to a stop.

• The brake pedal may pulsate slightly after

the ABS is activated.

• The brake pedal may move down slightly

after the ABS is activated.

Active Cornering Assist operation

sounds and vibrations

When the Active Cornering Assist is oper-

ated, operation sounds and vibrations may

be generated from the brake system, but

this is not a malfunction.

Automatic reactivation of TRAC and

VSC systems

After turning the TRAC and VSC systems

off, the systems will be automatically

re-enabled in the following situations:

When the engine switch is turned off

If only the TRAC system is turned off, the

TRAC will turn on when vehicle speed

increases

If both the TRAC and VSC systems are

turned off, automatic re-enabling will not

occur when vehicle speed increases.

EPS operation sound

When the steering wheel is operated, a

motor sound (whirring sound) may be

heard. This does not indicate a malfunction.

Reduced effectiveness of the EPS sys-

tem

The effectiveness of the EPS system is

reduced to prevent the system from over-

heating when there is frequent steering

input over an extended period of time. The

steering wheel may feel heavy as a result.

Should this occur, refrain from excessive

steering input or stop the vehicle and turn

the engine off. The EPS system should

return to normal within 10 minutes.
