●
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

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 hybrid system output will be restricted to re-
strain any increase in the vehicle speed. (Hybrid system 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.)
