within the estimated path of the  
vehicle.  
When the shift position is  
changed.

Calculated vehicle route  
When the vehicle is moving, the side sensors or side cameras can  
detect objects. While the vehicle is moving, if a detected object can  
no longer be detected by the side sensors or side cameras, the loca-  
tion of the object relative to the vehicle is estimated. If the object is  
determined to be in the estimated path of the vehicle, the object  
warning function will operate.

Object warning function operat-  
ing conditions  
Side sensors and side cam-  
eras  
The Advanced Park is operating.  
In situations such as the following,  
the function may not operate cor-  
rectly, possibly leading to an acci-  
dent. Proceed carefully.  
The vehicle moves about 23.0 ft.  
(7 m) after the EV system is  
started.  
The R shift position is selected.  
When starting off shortly after  
the power switch is turned to  
ON and a small vehicle or other  
object which cannot be detected  
by a front side sensor is next to  
the vehicle.  
After the D shift position has been  
selected, the vehicle has moved  
23.0 ft. (7 m) or less.  
Camera switch has been pressed  
and the panoramic view monitor  
screen is displayed.  
In the situation shown in the fol-  
lowing illustration, even if the  
vehicle starts off, the vehicle on  
the left will not be detected and  
the object warning function will  
not operate.  
The front or rear sensor detects a  
5
stationary object.  
Detection of objects along the  
sides of the vehicle  
Objects along the sides of the  
vehicle are not instantaneously  
detected. The location of objects  
in relation to the vehicle is esti-  
mated after they are first detected  
by the front or rear side sensors,  
or side cameras. Therefore, after  
the power switch is changed to  
ON, even if an object is along the  
side of the vehicle, it may not be  
detected until the vehicle has  
been driven a small amount and  
the side sensors or side cameras  
completely scan the areas along  
the sides of the vehicle.  
When an object or person is in a  
position which cannot be  
detected by the side sensors or  
side cameras.  
If a vehicle, person, animal, etc., is  
detected by a side sensors or side  
cameras, but then leaves the  
detection area of the side sensors  
or side cameras, the system will  
assume the object has not moved.  
When, after the side sensors  
have completed scanning the  
areas along the sides of the  
vehicle, a vehicle, person, or  
other object approaches the  
side of the vehicle and cannot  
be detected.
