Purpose of the Lexus parking assist-sensor
The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when parallel parking or
maneuvering into a garage is measured by the sensors and communicated via the
displays and a buzzer. Always check the surrounding area when using this system.
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’ surroundings and driving safely.
■
To ensure the system can operate properly
Observe the following precautions. Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable
to be driven safely and possibly cause an accident.
●
Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
●
Do not attach a sticker or install an electronic component, such as a backlit license
plate (especially fluorescent type), fog lights, fender pole or wireless antenna near a
radar sensor.
●
Do not subject the surrounding area of the sensor to a strong impact. If subjected
to an impact, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. If the front or rear bumper needs to
be emoved/installed or replaced, contact any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●
Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
●
Do not attach a license plate cover.
●
Keep your tires properly inflated.
■
When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the function as it may operate even though there is no
possibility of a collision.
●
Failing to observe the warnings above.
●
A non-genuine Lexus suspension (lowered suspension, etc.) is installed.

■
The Lexus parking assist-sensor can be operated when
●
The engine switch is in ON.
●
The Lexus parking assist-sensor is on.
●
The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
●
A shift position other than P is selected.
■
Objects which the system may not be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular attention
to the following objects:
●
Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●
Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
●
Sharply-angled objects
●
Low objects
●
Tall objects with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
■
Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect the ability of a
sensor to correctly detect objects. Particular instances where this may occur are listed
below.
●
There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will resolve
this problem.)
●
A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen the sensor display may be displayed
abnormally, or objects, such as a wall, may not be detected.
●
When a sensor or the area around a sensor is
extremely hot or cold.
●
On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●
When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehi-
cles, the clearance sonar of other vehicles or other devices which produce ultrasonic
waves are near the vehicle

●
If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehicle has been in
an accident or is malfunctioning
●
When a tire chains, compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair kit is
used
■

collision
In some situations, such as the following, the system may operate even though there is no
possibility of a collision.
●
When driving on a narrow road
●
When driving toward a banner, flag, low-hanging branch or boom barrier (such as
those used at railroad crossings, toll gates and parking lots)
●
When there is a rut or hole in the surface of the road

There is a short delay between when an object is detected and when the display and
buzzer operate. Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that an object will come
within the detection range before the display is shown and the buzzer sounds.
●
It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system or air flow
noise of the air conditioning system.
●
It may be difficult to hear the sound of this system due to the buzzers of other systems.
