The Parking Support Brake system
consists of the following functions
that operate when driving at a low
speed or backing up, such as when
parking. When the system deter-
mines that the possibility of a colli-
sion with a detected object is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action. If the system
determines that the possibility of a
collision with a detected object is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.

WARNING
■
Cautions regarding the use of the sys-
tem
Do not overly rely on the system, as
doing so may lead to an accident.
●
The driver is solely responsible for safe
driving. Always drive carefully, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The Parking Support Brake system is
designed to provide support to lessen
the severity of collisions. However, it
may not operate in some situations.
●
The Parking Support Brake system is
not designed to stop the vehicle com-
pletely. Additionally, even if the system
has stopped the vehicle, it is necessary
to depress the brake pedal immedi-
ately as brake control will be canceled
after approximately 2 seconds.
●
It is extremely dangerous to check the
system operations by intentionally
driving the vehicle into the direction of
a wall, etc. Never attempt such actions.
■
When to disable the Parking Support
Brake
In the following situations, disable the
Parking Support Brake as the system
may operate even though there is no
possibility of a collision.
●
When inspecting the vehicle using a
chassis roller, chassis dynamo or free
roller
●
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
●
If the front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered due to the carried load
●
When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-
tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●
When using automatic car washing
devices
●
If the vehicle cannot be driven in a sta-
ble manner, such as when the vehicle
has been in an accident or is malfunc-
tioning
