■Panoramic view display range
●In the panoramic view, the system processes
and displays images acquired form the 4
cameras under the assumption that the vehicle is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the
display may appear as follows.
• Three-dimensional objects may appear to have fallen over, and be long and thin or bigger than they actually are
• Three-dimensional objects at a point higher than the surface of the road may appear further away than they actually are, or may not appear
• Tall objects may appear to emerge from the image processing seams
●Inconsistencies in the bright ness of images from each camera may occur depending on
lighting conditions.
●The displayed image may not be aligned when the tilt or height of the vehicle changed
due to the number of passengers, cargo we ight or remaining quantity of gasoline.
●The displayed image may not be aligned when the vehicle is in other than “N” (normal)
height mode. ( P. 2 9 7 )
●Images and guide lines may not be properly displayed when the doors are not com-
pletely closed.
●The relative distances between the vehicle ic on and road surface or an obstacle dis-
played in the panoramic view may differ from the actual state.
●If an illuminated license plate is used, it may appear on the screen.
●The black area around the vehicle icon is an area that is not appear in the camera.
Check these areas directly.
■Wide front view display range
●Certain areas at the front of the vehicle have a different sense of distance, and are
masked in black so that they do not appear on the screen.
●There are limits to the range displayed on the screen. Objects at either corner of the
bumper or directly below the bumper are not displayed.
●The perceived distance in images displayed on the screen differs from the actual dis-
tance.
■Images displayed on the screen
Cameras of the Multi-terrain Monitor system use special lenses. The distance of the
image that appears on the screen differs from the actual distance.
●The circled areas shown in the illustration may
be difficult to see, as these are points where
images are combined.

■Multi-terrain Monitor cameras
●Camera positions
The cameras of the Multi-terrain Monitor system are installed as follows.Side camera (left and right
sides)
Front camera
Rear camera
●Using the cameras
If dirt or foreign matter (such as wate r droplets, snow, mud, etc.) is adhering
to the camera, it cannot transmit a clear image. In this case, flush it with a
large quantity of water and wipe the camera lens with a soft and wet cloth.

NOTICE
■How to use the cameras
●Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the Multi-terrain
Monitor from operating properly.
• Do not strike the camera area, or allow any objects to bump into it If the camera or surrounding area has re ceived a strong impact, the camera posi-
tion, installation angle, etc., may deviate. If the camera is accidentally subjected to
an impact, have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus dealer.
• Do not remove, disassemble or modify the camera or surrounding parts
Doing so may result in the camera malfunct ioning. This also may result in a loss of
waterproof performance.
• If the camera lens is dirty, follow the above procedures to clean it
If the camera lens is damaged it cannot transmit a clear image.
Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, oil film remover, glass coating, etc. to con-
tact the camera cover
Doing so will negatively affect the camera co ver (resin). If this happens, wipe it off
immediately.
• When the outside temperature is cold, do not cause any sudden changes in tem-
perature, such as by applying hot water
●When washing the vehicle, do not apply water with a high-pressure washer to the
camera or surrounding area . Doing so may cause the camera to receive a strong
impact, and the camera may not operate properly

■Differences between the panoramic view screen and the actual road
The distance guide lines, the combined
panoramic view image, guide lines,
etc., indicate estimated distances on a fl at road surface. In the following situa-
tions, actual distances and vehicle course will differ from the guide lines on the
screen.
●When the ground behind the vehicle slopes up sharply
The distance guide lines will appear to be closer to the vehicle than the
actual distance. Therefore, obstacles on an upward slope appear further
away than they actually are. In the same way, the actual course of the vehi-
cle will differ from the course indicated by the guide lines.

●When the ground behind the vehicle slopes down sharply
The distance guide lines are displayed further away than the actual dis-
tance. Therefore, obstacles on a downward slope appear closer than the
actually are. In the same way, the actual course of the vehicle will differ from
the course indicated by the guide lines.
●When the vehicle is tilted
When the vehicle is tilted due to the number of passengers or weight of the
load, actual distances and vehicle course will differ.

■Differences between the panoramic vi
ew display and actual three-dimen-
sional objects
Be aware of the following points when three-dimensional objects higher than
the surface of the road (such as a vehicle bumper) are nearby.
●Panoramic view display
In the panoramic view, the system processes and displays images under the
assumption that the vehicle is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the position
of three-dimensional objects higher than the road surface (such as a vehi-
cle bumper) cannot be determined. Even if it seems that a collision will not
occur according to the screen, there may not actually be any extra space
between the vehicle and an obstacle higher than the road surface, resulting
in a collision. In these cases, conf irm the safety of your surroundings
directly.

■Intuitive parking assist pop-up display
When the intuitive parking assist pop-up disp lay is red, park the vehicle and make sure
to confirm the safety of your surroundings.
Failure to do so may lead to an unexpected accident.

●Projected course lines
Projected course lines are displayed under the assumption that the vehicle
is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the position of three-dimensional
objects higher than the road surface (such as a vehicle bumper) cannot be
determined. Even if it seems that an obstacle is outside of the projected
course lines and a collision will not occur according to the screen, an
obstacle may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in a collision.
Projected course lines Three-dimensional objects in high positions (such as walls with protrusions
or the loading areas of trucks) may not be displayed on the screen. Con-
firm the safety of your surroundings directly.

■Differences between the rear view or wide rear view and actual roads
The guide lines on the screen are intended for flat surfaces (such as the road).
Be aware of the following points when three-dimensional objects with protru-
sions (obstacles such as the cargo bed of a truck) are nearby.
●Projected course lines
Guide lines are displayed in reference to a level road surface and cannot
be used to determine the location of
three-dimensional objects. Confirm
the safety of your surroundings directly. Even if it seems that the cargo bed
of a truck is outside the projected co urse lines and a collision will not occur
according to the screen, it may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in
a collision.
