Conditions which may affect the wide view front & side monitor system ●
If the front of the vehicle or the passenger side outside rear view mirror is hit, the
camera’s position and mounting angle ma y change. Contact your Lexus dealer.●
Rapid temperature changes, such as when hot water is poured on the vehicle in
cold weather, may cause the system to function abnormally. ●
If the camera lens is dirty, it cannot transmit a clear image. Rinse with water and
wipe with a soft cloth. If extremely dirty, wash with a mild cleanser and rinse. ●
The displayed image may be darker and mo ving images may be slightly distorted
when the system is cold. ●
Situations unsuitable for wide view front & side monitor
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow.
• When using tire chains or emergency tires.
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or slopes. ●
If the tires are changed, the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen
may be incorrect. When changing the tires, consult your Lexus dealer. ●
Depending on the circumstances of the vehicle (number of passengers, amount
of luggage, etc.), the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may
change. Be sure to check visually behind and all around the vehicle before pro-
ceeding. ●
When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of water to the camera
or camera area. Doing so may result in the camera malfunctioning.

When a solid object is close by
■
When using the wide view front & side monitor
Even if an obstacle is no longer visible on the side monitor, do not turn the steering
wheel further in the direction the vehicle is turning until the vehicle has moved com-
pletely past the obstacle. If the steering wh eel is turned to full lock, the vehicle will
turn in the smallest possible turning circle, and may collide with the obstacle. The screen’s guide lines are designed for level
surfaces (road surface etc.) or flat walls etc.
When driving near the obstacle, the obstacle
may be displayed as outside the projected
course line, and it may seem that there is no
danger of a collision, however any sections
protruding from the wall may project over the
course line and the vehicle may actually col-
lide with the obstacle.
In cases such as this were the projected
course line passes clos e to obstacles, always
visually check the surroundings for safety.

Automatic leveling function
The vehicle is adjusted to a fixed height for each mode, regardless of the number of
occupants and the luggage load. ●
However the vehicle cannot be raised if the vehicle load exceeds the following
limits:
• Up to 4 occupants
* plus approximately 661 lb. (300 kg) in the normal mode
• Up to 4 occupants

* : average weight 150 lb. (68 kg) per person ●
If the vehicle height cannot be raised when in the normal mode, and “LO”
appears on the display, the vehicle is loaded too heavily. Take extra care when
driving in this condition.

height select switch to “ ” then push to “ ”. If the vehicle height still cannot be
raised, turn the ignition off then on again, then try once more.■
