Rear view monitor camera
Smear effect
The camera uses a special lens. The
distance of the image that appears on
the screen differs from the actual dis-
tance.
In the following cases, it may be difficult
to see images on the screen even when
the system is functioning correctly:
• The vehicle is in a dark area, such
as at night.
• The temperature near the lens is
extremely high or low.
• Water droplets are on the camera
lens or humidity is high, such as
when it rains.
• Foreign matter, such as snow and
mud, adheres to the camera lens.
• The sun or headlights are shining
directly into the camera lens.
• The camera has scratches or dirt on
it.
If a bright light, such as sunlight reflected
off the vehicle body, is picked up by the
camera, a smear effect
* characteristic to
the camera may occur.
*: Smear effectA phenomenon that
occurs when a bright light is picked up
by the camera; when transmitted by
the camera, the light source appears to
have a vertical streak above and below
it.

CAUTION
Replacing light bulbs
Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after
turning off the lights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
Do not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. Hold the
bulb by the plastic or metal portion.
If the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.
Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so
may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This
may damage the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.
Check the wattage of the bulb before installing to prevent heat damage.

HILUX_OM_OM0K134E_(EE)
If the engine will not start
If the engine will not start even though correct starting procedures
are being followed (
P. 162), consider each of the following points:
The engine will not start even though the starter motor
operates normally.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
There may not be sufficient fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
(P. 595)
There may be a malfunction in the engine immobilizer system.
(P. 102)
The starter motor turns over slowly, the interior lights and
headlights are dim, or the horn does not sound or sounds at
a low volume.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
The battery may be discharged. (P. 587)
The battery terminal connections may be loose or corroded.
The starter motor does not turn over, the interior lights and
headlights do not turn on, or the horn does not sound.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
One or both of the battery terminals may be disconnected.
The battery may be discharged. (P. 587)
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional, if the problem cannot be

589 5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
HILUX_OM_OM0K134E_(EE)
Starting the engine when the battery is discharged (vehicles with auto-
matic transmission)
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
To prevent battery discharge
Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is run-
ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
When the battery is removed or discharged
The power windows must be initialized. (P. 92)
Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine
speed slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5
minutes to recharge the battery of your vehicle.
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start
the engine of your vehicle.
Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse order from which they were con-
nected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle inspected at any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, as soon as possible.STEP2
