6-1. Lexus parking assist monitor
Peripheral monitoring system
The parking assist monitor displays an
image of the view from the bumper of
the rear area of the vehicle.
Corners of bumper
 The image adjustment procedure
for the parking assist monitor screen
is the same as the procedure for
adjusting the screen display.
( P.58)
●The area displayed on the screen may
vary according to vehicle orientation conditions.
●Objects which are close to either corner of the bumper or under the bumper can-not be displayed.
●The camera uses a special lens. The dis-tance of the image that appears on the
screen differs from the actual distance.
●Items which are located higher than the
camera may not be displayed on the monitor.
The camera for the parking assist mon-
itor is located as shown in the illustra-
tion.
■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
image. In this case, flush it with a large
quantity of water and wipe the camera
lens clean with a soft and wet cloth.

The distance guide lines and the
vehicle width guide lines may not
actually be parallel with the dividing
lines of the parking space, even
when they appear to be so. Be sure
to check visually.
 The distances between the vehicle
width guide lines and the left and
right dividing lines of the parking
space may not be equal, even when
they appear to be so. Be sure to
check visually.
 The distance guide lines give a dis-
tance guide for flat road surfaces. In
any of the following situations, there
is a margin of error between the
guide lines on the screen and the
actual distance/course on the road.
■When the ground behind the vehi-
cle slopes up sharply
The distance guide lines will appear to
be closer to the vehicle than the actual
distance. Because of this, objects will
appear to be farther away than they
actually are. In the same way, there will
be a margin of error between the
guidelines and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.
NOTICE
●The parking assist monitor may not operate 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 malfunc-
tion. If this happens, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer as soon as pos- sible.

to the number of passengers or the dis-
tribution of the load, there is a margin

surfaced objects (such as the road). It is
not possible to determine the position
of three-dimensional objects (such as
vehicles) using the estimated course
lines and distance guide lines. When
approaching a three-dimensional
object that extends outward (such as
the flatbed of a truck), be careful of the
following.
■Estimated course lines
Visually check the surroundings and
the area behind the vehicle. In the case
shown below, the truck appears to be
outside of the estimated course lines
and the vehicle does not look as if it hits
the truck. However, the rear body of
the truck may actually cross over the
estimated course lines. In reality if you
back up as guided by the estimated
course lines, the vehicle may hit the
truck.
