WARNING
■ To ensure the Parking Sup-
port Brake can operate prop-
erly
Observe the following precautions
regarding the sensors (P.356).
Failure to do so may cause a sen-
sor to not operate properly, and
may cause an accident.
● Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
● Do not replace a sensor with a
part other than a genuine part.
● Do not subject a sensor or its
surrounding area to a strong
impact.
● Do not damage the sensors,
and always keep them clean.

■
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or inclina-
tion of the vehicle may prevent
the sensors from detecting
objects correctly or cause the sys-
tem to not operate or operate
unnecessarily.
■
In the event that the Parking Sup-
port Brake function (static objects)
operates unnecessarily, such as
at a railroad crossing, brake con-
trol will be canceled after approxi-
mately 2 seconds, allowing you to
proceed forward and leave the
area, brake control can also be
canceled by depressing the brake
pedal. Depressing the accelera-
tor pedal after brake control is
canceled will allow you to proceed
forward and leave the area.
■
Do not apply intensive bursts of
water or steam to the sensor
area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●
If the area around a radar sen-
sor is subjected to an impact,
the system may not operate
properly due to a sensor mal-
function. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
