WARNING
The shape of an object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular atten-
●
tion to the following:
• 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 vehi-
cle
• People, animals and other moving objects
• People wearing certain types of clothing
The following situations may occur when using the Lexus parking assist-sensor.
●
• Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection distance
may be shortened, or detection may not be possible.
• Objects may not be detected if they are too close to a sensor.
• There will be a short delay between the detection of an object and display of the
detection. Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the object will come
within a sensor's detection area before the display is shown and a warning beep
sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than a sensor may not be detected when approached,
even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of the audio system or air flow
noise of the air conditioning system.
NOTICE
When using intuitive parking assist
■
In the following situations, the system may not function correctly due to a sensor mal-
function etc. Have the vehicle checked by your Lexus dealer.
The intuitive parking assist operation display flashes, and a beep sounds when no
●
obstacles are detected.
If the area around a sensor collides with something, or is subjected to strong impact.
●
If the bumper or grille collides with something.
●
If the display flashes or is displayed continuously and a buzzer does not sound, except
●
when the mute function has been turned on.
If a display error occurs, first check the sensor.
●
If the error occurs even when there is no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is likely that
the sensor is malfunctioning.
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.
