INFORMATION
● As the images obtained from four cam-
eras are processed and displayed on
the standard of a flat road surface; the
panoramic view/moving view/see-
through view may be displayed as fol-
lows.
• Objects may look collapsed; thinner or
bigger than usual.
• An object with a higher position than the road surface may look farther away
than it actually is or may not appear at
all.
• Tall objects may appear protruding from the non-displayed areas of the
image.
● Variations in the brightness of the image
may appear for every camera.
● The displayed image may be shifted by
inclination of the vehicle body, change in
vehicle height, etc., depending on the
number of passengers, amount of lug-
gage, fuel quantity, etc.
● If the front doors or trunk are not com-
pletely closed; neither the image nor the
guide lines are displayed.
● The position relations of the vehicle icon
and the road surface or obstacle may
differ from the actual positions.
● The black areas of the vicinity of the
vehicle icon are areas that are not cap-
tured by the camera.
● Images like the following are combined,
thus some areas may be difficult to view.

●When a sensor indicator on the intuitive
parking assist display illuminates in red
or a buzzer sounds continuously, be
sure to check the area around the vehi-
cle immediately and do not proceed any
further until safety has been ensured,
otherwise an unexpected accident may
occur.

2. PANORAMIC VIEW MONITOR
DISTORTION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS ON THE
SCREEN
When there are three-dimensional objects (such as vehicle bumpers, etc.) nearby
in positions higher than the surface of the road, take extra ca re when using the fol-
lowing.
PANORAMIC VIEW DISPLAY (INCL UDING MAGNIFIED DISPLAY)
Since the panoramic view processes and displays images based on flat road sur-
faces, it cannot depict the position of three-dimension objects (such as vehicle
bumpers, etc.) that are in positions higher than the surface of the road. For exam-
ple, even though it appears that there is space between the bum pers of the two ve-
hicles in the illustration below and they are not likely to col lide, in reality, a collision
is about to occur.

Estimated course line
WHEN APPROACHING
THREE-DIMENSIONAL
OBJECTS
The estimated course lines target flat
surfaced objects (such as the road). It
is not possible to determine the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects (such
as vehicles) using the estimated
course lines and distance guide lines.
When approaching a three-dimension-
al object that extends outward (such as
the flatbed of a truck), be careful of the
following.

ESTIMATED COURSE LINES
Since the estimated course line is dis-
played for a flat road surface, it can not
depict the position of three-dimension-
al objects (such as vehicle bumpers,
etc.) that are in positions higher than
the surface of the road. Even if the
bumpers of the vehicle is on the out-
side of the estimated course line in the
image, in reality, the vehicles are on a
collision course.

9. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
If you notice any of the following symptoms, refer to the likely cause and the
solution, and re-check.
If the symptom is not resolved by the solution, have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
IF YOU NOTICE ANY SYMPTOMS
SymptomLikely causeSolution
The image is difficult to see
 The vehicle is in a dark
area
 The temperature around
the lens is either high or low
 The outside temperature is
low
 There are water droplets on
the camera
 It is raining or humid
 Foreign matter (mud etc.) is
adhering to the camera
 Sunlight or headlights are
shining directly into the
camera
 The vehicle is under fluo-
rescent lights, sodium
lights, mercury lights etc.
Back up while visually check-
ing the vehicle’s surround-
ings. (Use the monitor again
once conditions have been
improved.)
The procedure for adjusting
the picture quality of the pan-
oramic view monitor system
is the same as the procedure
for adjusting the screen.

The image is blurry
Dirt or foreign matter (such as
water droplets, snow, mud
etc.) is adhering to the cam-
era.Flush the camera with a large
quantity of water and wipe the
camera lens clean with a soft
and wet cloth.
The image is out of alignment
The camera or surrounding
area has received a strong
impact.Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
The guide lines are very far
out of alignment
The camera position is out of
alignment.Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
The vehicle is tilted. (There
is a heavy load on the vehi-
cle, tire pressure is low due
to a tire puncture, etc.)
 The vehicle is used on an
incline.If this happens due to these
causes, it does not indicate a
malfunction.
