■Adjusting the display (digital mirror mode)
●If the displayed ima ge is adjusted, it may appear distorted. This is not a
malfunction.
●If the brightness of the Digital Rear-
view Mirror is set too high, it may
cause eye strain. Adjust the Digital Rear-view Mirror to an appropriate
brightness. If your eyes become tired,
change to optical mirror mode.
●The brightness of the Digital Rear-
view Mirror will ch ange automatically according to the b rightness of the
area in front of your vehicle.
■To prevent the light sensors from
malfunctioning
To prevent the light sensors from mal -
functioning, do not touch or cover them.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■While driving
●Do not adjust the position of the
Digital Rear-view Mirror or adjust
the display settings while driving. Stop the vehicle and operate the
Digital Rear-view Mirror control
switches. Failure to do so ma y cause a steer-
ing wheel operation error, resulting
in an unexpected accident.
●Always pay attention to the vehi -
cle’s surroundings.
The size of the vehicles and other
objects may look d ifferent when in
digital mirror mode a nd optical mirror mode.
When backing up, make sure to
directly check the safety of the area around your vehicle, especially
behind the vehicle.
Additionally, if a vehicle approaches from the rear in the dark, such as at
night, the surrounding area may
appear dim.

WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely sole ly upon the LTA
system. The LTA system does not automatically drive the vehicle or
reduce the amount of attention that
must be paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always
assume full responsibility for driving
safely by paying careful attention to
the surrounding conditions and operating the stee ring wheel to cor-
rect the path of t he vehicle. Also,
the driver must take adequate breaks when fatigued, such as from
driving for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate driv -
ing operations and pay careful
attention may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
●When not u sing the LTA system, use the LTA switch to turn the sys -
tem off.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA
system
In the following situations, use the LTA switch to tu rn the system off.
Failure to do so may lead to an acci -
dent, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road surface which is slippery due to rainy
weather, fallen snow, freezing, etc.
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-cov -
ered road.
●White (yellow) lines are difficult to
see due to rain, snow, fog, dust,
etc.
●Vehicle is driven in a temporary
lane or restricted lane due to con - struction work.
●Vehicle is driven in a construction zone.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are equipped.
●When the tires have been exces - sively worn, or when the tire infla -
tion pressure is low.
●When tires of a size other than
specified are installed.
●Vehicle is driven in traffic lanes
other than that highways and free -
ways.
●When your vehicle is towing a
trailer or during emergency towing
■Preventing LTA system malfunc -
tions and operations performed by mistake
●Do not modify the headlights or
place stickers, etc. on the surface of the lights.
●Do not modify the suspension etc. If the suspension etc. needs to be
replaced, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not install or place anything on the hood or grille. Also, do not
install a grille guar d (bull bars, kan-
garoo bar, etc.).
●If your windshield needs repairs,
contact any autho rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Conditions in which functions
may not operate properly
In the following situ ations, the func- tions may not operate properly and
the vehicle may depart from its lane.
Drive safely by always paying careful
attention to your surroundings and operate the steering wheel to correct
the path of the vehicle without relying
solely on the functions.

■The Parking Support Brake func- tion (static object) will operate
when
The function will operate when the
PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated ( →P.170, 171) and all of the following
conditions are met:
●Hybrid system outpu t restriction con-
trol
• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 15
km/h (9 mph) or less. • There is a static object in the traveling
direction of the v ehicle and approxi-
mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away. • The Parking Support Brake deter -
mines that a stronger-than-normal
brake operation is n ecessary to avoid a collision.
●Brake control• Hybrid system outpu t restriction con-
WARNING
●If the area around a radar sensor is
subjected to an im pact, the system
may not operate properly due to a sensor malfunction. Have the vehi -
cle inspected by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as changes to the height or inclination of
the vehicle may pr event the sensors
from detecting objects correctly or cause the system to not operate or
operate unnecessarily.
■If the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) operates
unnecessarily, such as at a rail - road crossing
In the event that the Parking Support
Brake function (sta tic objects) oper- ates unnecessarily, such as at a rail-
road crossing, brake control will be
canceled after appr oximately 2 sec- onds, allowing you to proceed forward
and leave the area, brake control can
also be canceled by depressing the brake pedal. Depressing the acceler -
ator pedal after brake control is can -
celed will allow you to proceed forward and leav e the area.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water
or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may resul t in the sensor malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do not
spray the sensors directly, as doing
so may cause a sensor to malfunc - tion.
●When using steam to clean the vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so
may cause a sensor to malfunction.
■When to disable the Parking Sup - port Brake
In the following situations, disable the
Parking Support Brake as the system may operate even t hough there is no
possibility of a collision.
●When inspecting t he vehicle using
a chassis roller, chassis dynamo or
free roller
●When loading the vehicle onto a
boat, truck or other transport vessel
●If the suspension has been modi -
fied or tires of a size other than specified are installed
●If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load
●When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is instal led, such as a tow-
ing eyelet, bumper protector (an
additional trim st rip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or snow plow
●When using an autom atic car wash

• If a sensor is cove red with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. (when cleared, the system
will return t o normal) • If heavy rain or wa ter strikes a sensor
• When driving in inclement weather
such as fog, snow or a sandstorm • A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area
will resolve this problem.)
