NOTICE
■To prevent damage to or incorr ect operation of the LKA system
● Do not modify the headlights or attach stickers to the surface of the lights.
● Do not modify the suspension or sun visor, or replace them with non-genu-
ine parts.
● Do not install or place anything on the hood or the grille. Also, do not install
a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar etc.).
● Do not modify the sun visor or replace it with anything other than a genu-
ine Toyota product.
● If your windshield needs repairs, contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Camera sensor (P. 289)
Observe the following to ensure that the LKA system functions correctly.
● Keep the windshield clean at all times.
Performance could be affected if the windshield is dirty, or if raindrops,
condensation or ice are adhering to the windshield.
● When adjusting the rear view mirror, make sure that it does not block the
camera lens.
● Do not attach window tinting to the windshield.
● Do not install an antenna in front of the camera lens.
● If the windshield is fogged up, use the windshield defogger to remove fog
from the windshield.
When it is cold, using the heater with air blowing to the feet may allow the
upper part of the windshield to fog up. This will have a negative effect on
the images.
●Do not attach a sticker or other items to
the windshield near the camera sensor.
● Do not install or place anything near the
camera.
