Toyota Camry (XV70): Parking Support Brake function (static objects)

If a collision with an object may occur due to the vehicle suddenly moving forward due to an accidental accelerator pedal operation, the vehicle moving the unintended direction due to the wrong shift position being selected, or while parking or traveling at low speeds, the sensors detect objects, such as a wall, in the traveling direction of the vehicle, and the system operates to lessen an impact with an object and reduce the resulting damage.

Examples of system operation

The system will operate in situations such as the following if an object is detected in the traveling direction of the vehicle.

■ When traveling at a low speed and the brake pedal is not depressed, or is depressed late

■ When the accelerator pedal is depressed excessively

■ When the vehicle moves in the unintended direction due to the wrong shift position being selected

■The Parking Support Brake function (static objects) will operate when

The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated

• Engine output restriction control
  • The Parking Support Brake system is enabled.
  • The vehicle speed is approximately 10 mph (15 km/h) or less.
  • There is an object in the traveling direction of the vehicle and approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away.
  • The system determines that a stronger-than-normal brake operation is necessary to avoid a collision.
• Brake control
  • Engine output restriction control is operating.
  • The system determines that an emergency brake operation is necessary to avoid a collision.

■The Parking Support Brake function (static objects) will stop operating when

The function will stop operating if any of the following conditions are met:

• Engine output restriction control
  • The Parking Support Brake system is disabled.
  • The collision becomes avoidable with normal brake operation.
  • The object is no longer approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
• Brake control
  • The Parking Support Brake system is disabled.
  • Approximately 2 seconds elapse after the vehicle is stopped by brake control.
  • The brake pedal is depressed after the vehicle is stopped by brake control.
  • The object is no longer approximately 6 to 13 ft. (2 to 4 m) away in the traveling direction of the vehicle.

■Detection range of the Parking Support Brake function (static objects)

The detection range of the Parking Support Brake function differs from the detection range of the intuitive parking assist.

Therefore, even if the intuitive parking assist detects an object and provides a warning, the Parking Support Brake function may not start operating.
