Lexus ES: Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians)
If the rear camera sensor detects a pedestrian behind the vehicle while
backing
up and the system determines that the possibility of colliding with the
detected pedestrian is high, a buzzer will sound. If the system determines that
the possibility of colliding with the detected pedestrian is extremely high, the
brakes will be applied automatically to help reduce the impact of the collision.
Examples of system operation
When a pedestrian is detected behind the vehicle while backing up, the brake
pedal is not depressed or is depressed late.
Center Display
Displays a message to urge the driver
to take evasive action when a pedestrian
is detected in the detection area
behind the vehicle. (A message will
also be displayed on the multi-information
display and head-up display (if
equipped).)
- Pedestrian detection icon
- Brake reminder
WARNING
■If the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates unnecessarily
Depress the brake pedal immediately
after the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) operates. (Operation
of the function is canceled by depressing
the brake pedal.)
■In order to correctly use the Parking
Support Brake function (rear pedestrians)
Do not rely solely upon the system.
Depending on the road conditions, vehicle
conditions, and weather conditions,
etc., the system may not operate. The
detection capability of the rear camera is
limited. Always drive while confirming
the safety of the surroundings of the vehicle.
Also, if the PKSB OFF indicator is flashing
or the message indicating that the
system is unavailable is displayed over
the camera image, the system cannot be
used. However, even if the indicator is not
flashing or the message is not displayed,
do not rely solely upon the system and
make sure to always drive while directly
confirming the safety of your surroundings.
■Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) will operate when
The function will operate when the PKSB
OFF indicator is not illuminated or flashing
and all of the following conditions
are met:
- Hybrid system output restriction control
- The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
- The vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or
less.
- The shift position is in R.
- The rear camera sensor detects a pedestrian
behind the vehicle while backing up
and the system determines that the possibility
of colliding with the detected
pedestrian is high.
- Brake control
- Hybrid system output restriction control
is operating.
- The Parking Support Brake determines
that an emergency brake operation is
necessary to avoid a collision with a
pedestrian.
■The Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) will stop operating
when
The function will stop operating if any of the
following conditions are met:
- Hybrid system output restriction control
- The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
- The collision becomes avoidable with
normal brake operation.
- The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle.
- Brake control
- The Parking Support Brake is disabled.
- Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed
since the vehicle was stopped by brake
control.
- The brake pedal is depressed after the
vehicle is stopped by brake control.
- The pedestrian is no longer detected
behind your vehicle.
■Detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians)
The detection area of the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians) differs
from the detection area of the RCD function. Therefore, even if the RCD
function detects a pedestrian and provides
an alert, the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) may not start operating.
■Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
- Some pedestrians, such as the following,
may not be detected by the Parking Support
Brake function (rear pedestrians),
preventing the function from operating
properly:
- Pedestrians who are bending forward or
squatting
- Pedestrians who are lying down
- Pedestrians who are running
- Pedestrians who suddenly enter the detection area
- People riding a bicycle, skateboard, or
other light vehicle
- Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing
such as a rain coat, long skirt, etc., making
their silhouette obscure
- Pedestrians whose body is partially hidden
by an object, such as a cart or
umbrella
- Pedestrians which are obscured by darkness,
such as at night
- In some situations, such as the following,
pedestrians may not be detected by the
Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians), preventing the function
from operating properly:
- When backing up in inclement weather
(rain, snow, fog, etc.)
- When the rear camera is obscured (dirt,
snow, ice, etc. are attached) or scratched
- When a very bright light, such as the sun,
or the headlights of another vehicle,
shines directly into the rear camera
- When backing up in a place where the
surrounding brightness changes suddenly,
such as at the entrance or exit of a
garage or underground parking lot
- When backing up in a dim environment
such as during dusk or in an underground
parking lot
- Even though there are no pedestrians in
the detection area, some objects, such as
the following, may be detected, possibly
causing the Parking Support Brake function
(rear pedestrians) to operate.
- Three dimensional objects, such as a
pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked vehicle
- Moving objects, such as a car or motorcycle
- Objects moving toward your vehicle
when backing up, such as flags or puddles
(or airborne matter, such as smoke,
steam, rain, or snow)
- Cobblestone or gravel roads, tram rails,
road repairs, white lines, pedestrian
crossings, puddles or fallen leaves on the
road
- Metal covers (gratings), such as those
used for drainage ditches
- Objects reflected in a puddle or on a wet
road surface
- The roadside or bumps on the road
- Shadows on the road
- In some situations, such as the following,
the Parking Support Brake function (rear
pedestrians) may operate even though
there are no pedestrians in the detection
area.
- When backing up toward the roadside or
a bump on the road
- If the vehicle is significantly tilted, such as
when carrying a heavy load
- When backing up toward an
incline/decline
- If the suspension has been modified or
tires of a size other than specified are
installed
- If the rear of the vehicle is raised or lowered
due to the carried load
- If an electronic component, such as a
backlit license plate or rear fog light, is
installed near the rear camera
- If a bumper protector, such as an additional
trim strip, is installed to the rear
bumper
- If the orientation of the rear camera has
been changed due to a collision or other
impact, or removal and installation
- If a towing eyelet is installed to the rear of
the vehicle
- When water is flowing over the rear camera
lens
- When the rear camera is obscured (dirt,
snow, ice, etc. are attached) or scratched
- If there is a flashing light in the detection
area, such as the emergency flashers of
another vehicle
