When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a suppleme ntal device intended to assist the driver
when backing up. When backing up, be sure to check visually behind and all
around the vehicle before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in death or
serious injuries. ●
Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up. The
image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may differ from
the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle. ●
When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate your
vehicle before maneuvering into it. ●
Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.●
In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become faint. The
image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may become unable to
see the image on the screen. Be sure to check direct visually and with the mirrors
all around the vehicl e before proceeding.●
The camera uses a special lens. The di stances between objects and pedestrians
that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ from the actual dis-
tances. ( P. 292)

When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Wide view front & side monitor
: If equippedThis system can display th e wide view front monitor and the side monitor
separately or at the same time.
The wide view front monitor uses a super-wide angle le ns to display on
screen the areas to the left and righ t of the vehicle and the blind spots to
the front of the vehicle. This system helps the driver check for approaching
cars, bicycles and pedestrians when at intersections with poor visibility.
The side monitor uses a camera instal led in the passenger’s side outside
rear view mirror to display on screen the area to the fron t-right of the vehi-
cle, helping the driver check this area.
On/off The simultaneous display screen
is displayed when the VIEW
switch is pressed.

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 may 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 tr ansmit 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 stra ight, such as curves or slopes.●
If the tires are changed, th e position of the guide li nes displayed on the screen
may be incorrect. When changing the tires, consult your Lexus dealer. ●

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. ●
