The  distance  guide  lines  and  the  vehicle  
width guide lines may not actually  be par -
allel  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
 
gui de 
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  distance
 
gui de 
for  flat  road  surfaces.  In  any  of  the  
following  situations,  there  is  a  margin  of  
error  between the fixed  guide lines  on the  
screen  and  the  actual  distance/course  on  
the road.
NOTICE
● The  rear  view  monitor  system  may  not  
operate properly in the following cases.
• If  the  back  of  the  vehicle  is  hit,  the  
position  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  a  glass  coating  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 your Toyota dealer as soon  
as possible.

WHEN ANY PART OF THE 
VEHICLE SAGS
When any part of the vehicle sags due  
to the number of passengers or the dis-
tribution  of  the  load,  there  is  a  margin  
of  error  between  the  fixed  guide  lines  
on the screen and the actual distance/
course on the road.
The distance guide lines are displayed  
according  to  flat  surfaced  objects  
(such as the road). It is not possible to  
determine the position of three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicles) using  
the  vehicle  width  guide  lines  and  dis-
tance guide lines. When approaching a  
three-dimensional  object  that  extends  
outward  (such  as  the  flatbed  of  a  
truck), be careful of the following.

 Vehicle width guide lines
VEHICLE WIDTH GUIDE LINES
Visually  check  the  surroundings  and  
the area behind the vehicle. In the case  
shown  below,  the  truck  appears  to  be  
outside of the vehicle width guide 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  
vehicle  width  guide  lines.  In  reality  if  
you  back  up  as  guided  by  the  vehicle  
width  guide  lines,  the  vehicle  may  hit  
the truck.DISTANCE GUIDE LINES
Visually  check  the  surroundings  and  
the  area  behind  the  vehicle.  On  the  
screen, it appears that a truck is park-
ing at point B. However, in reality if you  
back up to point A, you will hit the truck.  
On the screen, it appears that A is clos-
est and C is farthest away. However, in  
reality,  the  distance  to  A  and  C  is  the  
same, and B is farther than A and C.
