LEXUS PARKING ASSIST-SENSOR SYSTEM


  1. OPERATION


    1. Depending on the detection distance and the detection area, the sound pattern of the No. 1 clearance warning buzzer will vary.

      Front Corner Long 600 +/- 60 to 450 +/- 50 (23.6 +/- 2.4 to 17.7 +/- 2.0) 200 200
      Middle 450 +/- 50 to 300 +/- 30 (17.7 +/- 2.0 to 11.8 +/- 1.2) 100 100
      Short 300 +/- 30 or less (11.8 +/- 1.2 or less) Continuous Sound 0
      Rear Corner Long 600 +/- 60 to 450 +/- 50 (23.6 +/- 2.4 to 17.7 +/- 2.0) 200 200
      Middle 450 +/- 50 to 300 +/- 30 (17.7 +/- 2.0 to 11.8 +/- 1.2) 100 100
      Short 300 +/- 30 or less (11.8 +/- 1.2 or less) Continuous Sound 0
      Rear Center Longest 1500 +/- 150 to 600 +/- 60 (59.1 +/-5.9 to 23.6 +/- 2.4) 200 500
      Long 600 +/- 60 to 450 +/- 50 (23.6 +/- 2.4 to 17.7 +/- 1.2) 200 200
      Middle 450 +/- 50 to 350 +/- 40 (17.7 +/- 1.2 to 13.8 +/- 1.6) 100 100
      Short 350 +/- 40 or less (13.8 +/- 1.6 or less) Continuous Sound 0

    2. When a sensor malfunction is detected or a sensor is frozen or dirty, the buzzer sounds 5 times according to the following timing:

    3. The ultrasonic sensors are divided into 2 groups: a front section group (front corners) and a rear section group (rear corners and rear center). If multiple ultrasonic sensors detect obstructions at the same time, the No. 1 clearance warning buzzer sounds as follows, in accordance with the detection distance and detection area of each group:

      Buzzer Sound Pattern ON/OFF Time (msec.)
      Detection Distance Short (*B) Middle (*B) Long (*B) Longest (*B) Not detected
      Short (*A) Timing 1 Timing 2 Timing 2 Timing 2 Continuous Sound
      Middle (*A) Timing 2 100/100 100/100 100/100 100/100
      Long (*A) Timing 2 100/100 200/200 200/200 200/200
      Not detected Continuous Sound 100/100 200/200 200/500 None

    4. Clearance Warning Buzzer Mute Function


      1. When a sensor detects an obstacle with the shift lever in a position other than P or R, the buzzer can be temporarily muted using the buzzer mute switch in the multi-display.

      2. The mute function is canceled if the vehicle speed reaches a certain level.
