PKSB (Parking Support
Brake)

*

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.

PKSB (Parking Support Brake)
system

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

252

4-5. Using the driving support systems

The Parking Support Brake can be
enabled/disabled on the multi-informa-
tion display. All of the Parking Support
Brake functions (static objects and
rear-crossing vehicles) are
enabled/disabled simultaneously.
Use the meter control switches to

enable/disable the parking support
brake. (

When the Parking Support Brake is dis-

abled, the PKSB OFF indicator (

P.70)

illuminates on the multi-information dis-

play.
To re-enable the system when it was dis-
abled, select

on the multi-information

display, select

and turn it on. If the

system is disabled, it will remain off even if

the engine switch is turned to IGNITION

ON mode after the engine switch has

been turned off.

If the engine output restriction control or
brake control operates, a buzzer will sound
and a message will be displayed on the
Center Display and multi-information dis-
play, to alert the driver. On vehicles with a
head-up display, the head-up display (if
equipped) will display the same message
as the multi-information display.
Depending on the situation, engine output
restriction control will operate to either
limit acceleration or restrict output as
much as possible.

Engine output restriction control is

Acceleration greater than a certain
amount is restricted by the system.

kit is used

NOTICE

If “Parking Support Brake Unavail-

able” is displayed on the multi-infor-

If this message is displayed immediately

after the engine switch is changed to

IGNITION ON mode, operate the vehi-

cle carefully, paying attention to your sur-

roundings. It may be necessary to drive

the vehicle for a certain amount of time

before the system returns to normal. (If

the system is not return to normal after

driving for a while, clean the sensors and

their surrounding area on the bumpers.)

If the vehicle is stopped due to operation of

the Parking Support Brake, the Parking

Support Brake will be disabled and the

PKSB OFF indicator will illuminate. If the

Parking Support Brake operates unneces-

sarily, brake control can be canceled by

depressing the brake pedal or waiting for

approximately 2 seconds for it to automati-

cally be canceled. Then, the vehicle can be

operated by depressing the accelerator

pedal.

Re-enabling the Parking Support Brake

To re-enable the Parking Support Brake

when it has been disabled due to system

operation perform any of the following

operations.
At this time, the PKSB OFF indicator will

If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”

is displayed on the multi-information

display and the PKSB OFF indicator is

flashing

If this message is displayed only when the

shift lever is in any position other than R, a

sensor on the front or rear bumper may be

dirty. Clean the sensors and their surround-

ing area on the bumpers.

If “Parking Assist Unavailable” and

“Parking Assist Unavailable Clean

Parking Assist Sensor” are displayed on

the multi-information display and the

PKSB OFF indicator is flashing

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.

If this message is shown even after

removing dirt from the sensor, or shown

when the sensor was not dirty to begin

with, have the vehicle inspected by your

Lexus dealer.

A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice

melts, the system will return to normal.

Water may be continuously flowing over

the sensor surface, such as in a heavy

rain. When the system determines that it

is normal, the system will return to nor-

mal.

If a battery terminal has been discon-

nected and reconnected

The system needs to be initialized. To initial-

ize the system, drive the vehicle straight

ahead for 5 seconds or more at a speed of

approximately 22 mph (35 km/h) or more.

Additionally, for vehicles with the Parking

Support Brake function, turn the steering

wheel fully to the left and right with the vehi-

cle stopped.

Parking Support Brake function (static objects)

*

If the sensors detect a static object, such as a wall, in the travelling direction of
the vehicle and the system determines that a collision may occur due to the
vehicle suddenly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal oper-
ation, the vehicle moving the unintended direction due to the wrong shift lever
position, or while parking or traveling at low speeds, the system will operate to
lessen the impact with the detected static object and reduce the resulting
damage.

Detection range of the Parking Support

Brake function (static objects)

The detection range of the Parking Support

Brake function (static objects) differs from

the detection range of the intuitive parking

assist. (

tive parking assist detects an object and

provides a warning, the Parking Support
