■ Detection area of the Parking Support

The detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear-crossing vehicles) dif-
fers from the detection area of the RCTA
function (P.283). Therefore, even if the
RCTA function detects a vehicle and pro-
vides an alert, the Parking Support Brake
function (rear-crossing vehicles) may not
start operating.
■ Conditions under which the Parking
Support Brake function (rear-crossing
vehicles) will not detect a vehicle
The Parking Support Brake function (rear-
crossing vehicles) is not designed to detect
the following types of vehicles and/or
objects:
● Vehicles approaching from directly
behind
● Vehicles backing up in a parking space
next to your vehicle
● Vehicles that the sensors cannot detect
due to obstructions
WARNING
● Do not replace a rear radar sensor
with a part other than a genuine part.
● Do not damage the rear radar sensors,
and always keep the radar sensors and
their surrounding area on the bumper
clean.
● If the area around a rear radar sensor
is subjected to an impact, the system
may not operate properly due to a
sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
● Observe the rear radar sensor han-
dling precautions. (P.262)
