being unable to be driven safely and pos-
sibly cause an accident.
● Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 10 km/h (6 mph).
● The sensors’ detection areas and reac-
tion times are limited. When moving
forward or reversing, check the areas
surrounding the vehicle (especially the

sor
In the following situations, the system
may not function correctly due to a sen-
sor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle
checked by your Lexus dealer.
● The Lexus parking assist-sensor oper-
ation display flashes, and a buzzer
sounds when no obstacles are
detected.
● If the area around a sensor collides
with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.
