■ The system can be operated when
●
The engine switch is in ON.
●
Toyota parking assist-sensor function
is on.
●
The vehicle speed is less than about
10 km/h (6 mph).
●
The shift lever is in other than P.
■ If “Parking Assist Unavailable
Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is
displayed on the multi-information
display
A sensor may be covered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow,
dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the
system to normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at
low temperatures, a warning message
may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice
melts, the system will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed even
if the sensor is clean, there may be a
sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
■ If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is
displayed on the multi-information
display (vehicles with PKSB)
●
Water may be continuously flowing
over the sensor surface, such as in a
heavy rain. When the system deter-
mines that it is normal, the system will
return to normal.
●
Initialization may not have been per-
formed after a battery terminal was
disconnected and reconnected. Initial-
ize the system. (

P.321)
If this message continues to be dis-
played even after initialization, have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
■ If a battery terminal has been dis-
connected and reconnected (vehi-
cles with PKSB)
The system needs to be initialized. To
initialize the system, drive the vehicle
straight ahead for 5 seconds or more at
a speed of approximately 35 km/h (22
mph) or more.
■ Sensor detection information
● The sensor’s detection areas are lim-
ited to the areas around the vehicle’s
front and rear bumpers.
● The following situations may occur
during use.
• Depending on the shape of the object
and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may
be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if static
objects draw too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between
static object detection and display
(warning buzzer sounds). Even at low
speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within 30 cm (11.9 in.)
before the display is shown and the
warning 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.
WARNING
● If the display flashes or is displayed
continuously and a buzzer does not
sound, except when the mute func-
tion has been turned on.
■ Notes when washing the vehicle
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 malfunc-
tion.
● When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunction.
