meter. Contact the nearest any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for details.
The 4 sonar sensors are located in
the rear bumper. To ensure the
proper operation of the Reverse
Automatic Braking (RAB) system,
observe the following precautions.
Do not affix any stickers or other
items on the sonar sensor or the
bumper surface near the sonar
sensors.
Always keep the sonar sensor
and the rear bumper surface
near the sonar sensors clean.
Do not modify rear bumper.
Do not paint the bumper near the
sonar sensors.
Do not apply high pressure water
to the sonar sensors with a high
pressure car-wa shing machine.
Do not apply strong impacts to
the rear bumper near the sonar
sensors. If a sensor becomes
misaligned, a system malfunc-
tion may occur, including inability
to detect objects in the reversing
direction. If any strong impact is
applied to the rear bumper, con-
tact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer
to have the system inspected.
Do not disassemble the sonar
sensors.
If the sonar sensors require repair or replacement, or if the area of the rear
bumper near the sonar sensors requires
repair, paintwork or replacement, con- tact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any relia-
ble repairer for assistance.

●Do not wipe the camera with alcohol,
benzine or paint thinner.
Otherwise, discolora tion may occur. To remove contamination, wipe the
camera with a cloth moistened with a
diluted neutral detergent. Then wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
●When waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply the wax to the camera. If
it comes in contact with the camera,
moisten a clean cloth with a diluted neutral detergent to remove the wax.
●The camera lens has a hard coating to help prevent scratches. However,
when washing the vehicle or cleaning
the camera lens, be careful not to
scratch the camera lens. Do not use a washing brush directly on the camera
lens. The image quality of the rear
view camera may deteriorate.
●Strong light shined on the camera lens
may develop vertical lines around the light source. This is not a malfunction.
●Under the fluorescent light, the display
may flicker. However, this is not a mal-
function.
●The image of the rear view camera
may be slightly different from the actual color of the objects.
●If there is a malfunction on the multi-media system screen, refer to “Multi-
media owner’s manual”.
Rear view camera
A rear view camera is attached
to the trunk lid. When the
engine switch is in ON and the
shift lever is set to R, the rear
view camera automatically dis-
plays the rear view image
behind the vehicle on the mul-
timedia system screen.
WA R N I N G
●Since the rear view camera uses a
wide-angle lens, the image on the monitor is different from the actual
view in terms of distance.
●Since the range of the image on the
monitor is limited, always check the
rear view and the surrounding area with your eyes and mirrors, and
move backward at a slow speed.
Moving backward only by checking the rear view image from the cam-
era could cause an accident.
●Do not disassemble or modify the
camera, switch or wiring. If smoke
comes out or you smell a strange odor, stop using the rear view cam-
era immediately.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for
an inspection. Continued use may result in accident, fire or electric
shock.
NOTICE
●When washing your vehicle with a high-pressure washer, do not allow
water to touch the camera directly.
Entry of water in the camera lens may result in condensation, mal-
function, fire or electric shock.
●Since the camera is a precision
device, do not subject it to strong
impacts. Otherwise, malfunction, fire or electric shock may occur.

When the shift lever is set to R, the
rear view camera automatically dis-
plays the rear view image from the
vehicle. When the lever is set to
other positions, the image before
setting to R is displayed.
1 Set the engine switch to ON.
2 Set the shift lever to R.
●The image of the rear view camera is horizontally reversed as is the case
with the vehicle inside mirror or the
outside mirror.
●When “Rear Camera Delay Control” is
on, the rear view image from the rear view camera will be displayed on the
multimedia system screen for a cer-
tain amount of time after the shift lever
is shifted from R to another position. When any of the following conditions
are met, the rear view image will be
canceled: • The shift lever is sh ifted to P (vehicles
with an automatic transmission)
• The vehicle speed becomes approxi- mately 8 km/h (5 mph) or more
• The parking brake is engaged
• 9 seconds have elapsed since the shift lever was shifted from R to
another position
To turn the function on and off, refer to “Multimedia owner’s manual”.
●It may be difficult to see the image of the rear view camera in the following
cases. This is not a malfunction of the
camera. • The vehicle is in a dark place (at night,
in a tunnel, etc.).
• The vehicle is in an extremely hot or cold place.
• An object (such as raindrops, snow,
dirt, etc.) that disturbs the view of the rear view camera sticks to the lens of
the camera.
• Strong light is shining directly on the camera lens (occasionally, there are
vertical lines on the screen).
The area from the rear end of the
bumper can be viewed. Areas at
both ends of the bumper and areas
just under the bumper cannot be
viewed.
Also, the image from the rear view
camera looks shorter than the
actual distance.
NOTICE
●If mud or snow sticks to or is frozen
on the camera, you must be very
careful when removing it. Otherwise, damage to the camera
may cause a fire or electric shock.
Pour water or lukewarm water over the camera to remove mud and ice,
and wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
●Do not put a flame close to the camera or wiring. Otherwise, dam-
age or fire may occur.
●When replacing the fuse, be sure to
use a fuse with the specified rating.
Use of a fuse with a different rating may result in a malfunction.
●If you use the rear view camera for a long time while the engine is not
operated, the battery may become
completely discharged.
