6. TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO/VISUAL SYSTEM
GS_Navi+MM_OM30F99U_(U)16.07.11 14:00
Fading: AM broadcasts are reflected by the
upper atmosphere — especially at night.
These reflected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio sta-
tion, causing the radio station to sound al-
ternately strong and weak.
Station interference: When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a ra-
dio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each oth-
er, making it difficult to hear the broadcast.
Static: AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high ten-
sion power lines, lightening or electrical
motors. This results in static.
zCargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier,
especially metal objects, may adversely
affect the reception of XM Satellite Radio.
z Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may
invalidate the user’s right to operate the
equipment. z
This DVD player is intended for use with
4.7 in. (12 cm). discs only.
z Extremely high temperatures can keep the
DVD player from working. On hot days,
use the air conditioning system to cool the
inside of the vehicle before using the player.
z Bumpy roads or other vibrations may make
the DVD player skip.
z If moisture gets into the DVD player, the
discs may not be able to be played. Remove
the discs from the player and wait until it
dries.

1. LEXUS PARKING ASSIST MONITOR
GS_Navi+MM_OM30F99U_(U)16.07.11 14:00
THE CAMERA
The camera for the parking assist moni-
tor is located as shown in the illustration.
USING THE CAMERA
If dirt or foreign matter (such as water
droplets, snow, mud etc.) is adhering to
the camera, it cannot transmit a clear im-
age. In this case, flush it with a large
quantity of water and wipe the camera
lens clean with a soft and wet cloth.
NOTICE
●The parking assist monitor may not oper-
ate properly in the following cases.
• If the back of the vehicle is hit, the posi- tion and mounting angle of the camera
may change.
• As the camera has a water proof con- struction, do not detach, disassemble or
modify it. This may cause incorrect
operation.
• When cleaning the camera lens, flush the camera with a large quantity of
water and wipe it with a soft and wet
cloth. Strongly rubbing the camera lens
may cause the camera lens to be
scratched and unable to transmit a clear
image.
• Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or glass coat to adhere
to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off
as soon as possible.
• If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on the
vehicle in cold weather, the system may
not operate normally.
• 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.
●Do not expose the camera to strong
impact as this could cause a malfunction.
If this happens, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer as soon
as possible.
