If quick adjustment to a full hour is de-
sired, push the “:00” button.
For example, if the “:00” button is de-
pressed when the time is between
1:01 – 1:29, the time will change to 1:00.
If the time is between 1:30 – 1:59, the

The display indicates between the range
of –22°F and 122 °F.
The key must be in the “ON” position. The rear view monitor system assists
the driver by displaying an image of
the view behind the vehicle while back-
ing up. The image is displayed in re-
verse on the screen. This allows the
image to appear in the same manner as
that of the rear view mirror.
To display the rear view image on the
screen, place the selector lever in the
“R” position when the ignition switch
in the “ON” position.
If you move the selector lever out of the
“R” position, the screen returns to the
previous screen. Operating another func-
tion of the navigation system will display
another screen.
The rear view monitor system is a supple-
ment device intended to assist back up.
When backing up, be sure to check be-
hind and all around the vehicle visually.CAUTION
Never depend on the rear view
monitor system entirely when back-
ing up. Always make sure your in-
tended path is clear.
Use caution just as you would when
backing up any vehicle.
Never back up while looking only at
the screen. The image on the
screen is different from actual con-
ditions. Depicted distances between
objects and flat surfaces will differ
from actual distances. If you back
up while looking only at the screen,
you may hit a vehicle, a person or
an object. When backing up, be
sure to check behind and all around
the vehicle visually and with mir-
rors before proceeding.
Do not use the system when the
back door is not completely closed.

If the back of the vehicle is hit, the
position and mounting angle of the
camera may change. Be sure to
have the camera’s position and
mounting angle checked at your
Toyota dealer.
If the temperature changes rapidly,
such as when hot water is poured
on the vehicle in cold weather, the
system may not operate normally.
If the camera lens becomes dirty, it
cannot transmit a clear image. If
water droplets, snow, or mud ad-
heres to the lens, rinse with water
and wipe with a soft cloth. If the
lens is extremely dirty, wash it with
a mild cleanser and rinse.
Use your own eyes to confirm the
vehicle’s surroundings, as the dis-
played image may become faint or
dark, and moving images will be
distorted, or not entirely visible
when the outside temperature is
low. When backing up, be sure to
check behind and all around the ve-
hicle visually and with mirror before
proceeding.
When replacing the tires, please consult
your Toyota dealer. If you replace the
tires, the area displayed on the screen
may change.

AREA DISPLAYED ON SCREEN
Image is displayed approximately level
on screen.
The area detected by the camera is
limited. Objects which are close to
either corner of the bumper or under
the bumper cannot be seen on the
screen.
The area displayed on the screen
may vary according to vehicle orien-
tation or road conditions.

THE REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
CAMERA
The rear view monitor system camera is
located on the back door as shown in the
illustration. The camera uses a special
lens. The distance of the image that ap-
pears on the screen differs from the actu-
al distance.
In the following cases, it may become
difficult to see the images on the screen,
even when the system is functioning.
In the dark (for example, at night)
When the temperature near the lens is
extremely high or low
When water droplets are adhering to
the camera, or when humidity is high
(for example, when it rains)
When foreign matter (for example,
snow or mud) adheres to the camera
lens
When the sun or the beam of head-
lights is shining directly into the cam-
era lens

216
Check surroundings for safety.
If a bright light (for example, sunlight re-
flected off the vehicle body) is picked up
by the camera, the smear effect
∗ peculiar
to the camera may occur.
∗: Smear effect—A phenomenon that oc-
curs when a bright light (for example, sun-
light reflected off the vehicle body) is
picked up by the camera; when trans-
mitted by the camera, the light source
appears to have a vertical streak above
and below it.
Cigarette lighter and ashtray
CIGARETTE LIGHTER
To use the cigarette lighter, press it in.
After it finishes heating up, it automati-
cally pops out ready for use.
If the engine is not running, the key must
be in the “ACC” position to use the light-
er.
Do not hold the cigarette lighter pressed
in.
Use a Toyota genuine cigarette lighter or
equivalent for replacement. ASHTRAY
To use the ashtray, pull it out.
When finished with your cigarette, thor-
oughly extinguish it in the ashtray to pre-
vent other cigarette butts from catching
fire. After using the ashtray, close the lid
completely.
To remove the ashtray, press down on the
lock spring plate and pull out.
CAUTION
To reduce the chance of injury in
case of an accident or sudden stop
while driving, always close the ash-
tray completely after use.

217
Power outlets
The power outlets are designed for
power supply for car accessories. To
use them, open the lids as shown in
the following illustrations.
The key must be in the “ACC” or “ON”
position to be used.
NOTICE
To prevent the fuse from being
blown, do not use the electricity
over the total vehicle capacity of
12V/120W (all the outlets together).
 To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not use the power
outlets longer than necessary when
the engine is not running.
 Close the power outlet lids when
the power outlets are not in use.
Inserting anything other than an ap-
propriate plug that fits the outlet,
or allowing any liquid to get into
the outlet may cause electrical fail-
ure or short circuits.

The roll sensing of curtain shield airbags
off switch can turn off the curtain
shield airbags and front seat belt pre-
tensioners in a vehicle rollover. This
switch should only be used in a situa-
tion where the inflation is not desired
(such as extreme offroad driving).
When you push the roll sensing
of curtain
shield airbags
off switch for a few seconds
with the ignition switch on, the roll sens-
ing
of curtain shield airbags off indicator
light comes on and the roll sensing func-
tion is turned off. When you push the
switch again, the indicator light goes off
and the roll sensing function is turned on. In a severe side impact, the curtain shield
airbags on impacted side will inflate even
if the roll sensing function is turned off.
If the ignition switch is turned to “ACC” or
“LOCK” with the roll sensing function off
and then the ignition switch is turned back
to “ON”, the roll sensing function will be
back on automatically.
For details, “—Seat belt pretensioners” on
page 57 or “—SRS side airbags and cur-
tain shield airbags” on page 68.
CAUTION
Make sure the roll sensing of cur-
tain shield airbags
off indicator light
is not on.
When the roll sensing of curtain
shield airbags off switch is turned
on (and the roll sensing of curtain
shield airbags off indicator light is
on), the curtain shield airbags and
front seat belt pretensioners will
not inflate in a vehicle rollover and
turning off the curtain shield air-
bags can reduce the occupant
protection which your vehicle safety
systems can provide to you in cer-
tain accidents and increase the like-
lihood of death or serious injuries.
