In the following situations the system may not be able to correctly detect the
surrounding  brightness  level.  This  may  cause  the  low  beams  to  r emain  on
or the high beams to flash or dazzle pedestrians or vehicles ah ead. In such
a case, it is necessary to manually switch between the high and  low beams.
• When  driving  in  inclement  weather  (heavy  rain,  snow,  fog,  sand storms,
etc.)
• When the windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or damaged

• When  the  surrounding  brightness  level  is  equal  to  that  of  head lights,  tail
lights or fog lights
• When  headlights  or  tail  lights  of  vehicles  ahead  are  turned  off,  dirty,
changing color, or not aimed properly
• When the vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc. from a prec eding  vehi-

• When  driving  through  an  area  of  intermittently  changing  brightness  and darkness
• When  frequently  and  repeatedly  driving  ascending/descending  roads,  or
roads  with  rough,  bumpy  or  uneven  surfaces  (such  as  stone-paved
roads, gravel roads, etc.)

WARNING
■To avoid malfunction of the front camera
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise,  the  front  camera  may  not  operate  properly,  possibly  leading  to
an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
● Keep the windshield clean at all times.
• If  the  windshield  is  dirty  or  covered  with  an  oily  film,  water   droplets,
snow, etc., clean the windshield.
• If a glass coating agent is applied to the windshield, it will still be neces- sary  to  use  the  windshield  wipers  to  remove  water  droplets,  etc.  from
the area of the windshield in front of the front camera.
• If the inner side of the windshield where the front camera is  installed is
dirty, contact your Toyota dealer.
B: Approximately 7.9 in. (20 cm) (Approximately 4.0 in. [10 cm] to the right and left from the center of the front camera)
● If the part of the windshield in front of the front camera is fogged up or cov-
ered with condensation or ice, use the windshield defogger to remove the
fog, condensation or ice. ( P. 383, 389, 397)
● If  water  droplets  cannot  be  properly  removed  from  the  area  of  t he  wind-
shield  in  front  of  the  front  camera  by  the  windshield  wipers,  replace  the
wiper insert or wiper blade.
● Do not attach window tint to the windshield.
● Replace the windshield if it is damaged or cracked.
After replacing the windshield, the front camera must be recali brated. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer for details.
● Do not allow liquids to contact the front camera.
● Do not allow bright lights to shine into the front camera.
● Do not dirty or damage the front camera. 
When  cleaning  the  inside  of  the  windshield,  do  not  allow  glass  cleaner  to
contact the lens of the front camera. Also, do not touch the lens. 
If the lens is dirty or damaged, contact your  Toyota dealer.
● Do  not attach objects,  such as  stickers,
transparent  stickers,  etc.,  to  the  outer
side  of  the  windshield  in  front  of  the
front  camera  (shaded  area  in  the  illus-
tration).
A: From  the  top  of  the  windshield  to
approximately  0.4  in.  (1  cm)  below
the bottom of the front camera

■If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information disp lay
A  system  may  be  temporarily  unavailable  or  there  may  be  a  malfu nction  in
the system.
● In  the  following  situations,  perform  the  actions  specified  in  t he  table.  When
the  normal  operating  conditions  are  detected,  the  message  will  disappear
and the system will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationAction
When  the  area  around  a  camera  is
covered  with  dirt,  moisture  (fogged
up,  covered  with  condensation,  ice,
etc.), or other foreign matterUsing  the  wiper  and  A/C  function,
remove  the  dirt  and  other  attached
matter. ( P. 383, 389, 397)
When  the  temperature  around  the
front camera is outside of the opera-
tional range, such as when the vehi-
cle  is  in  the  sun  or  in  an  extremely
cold environment
If  the  front  camera  is  hot,  such  as
after the vehicle had been parked in
the sun, use the air conditioning sys-
tem  to  decrease  the  temperature
around the front camera.
If  a  sunshade  was  used  when  the
vehicle  was  parked,  depending  on
its  type,  the  sunlight  reflected  from
the  surface  of  the  sunshade  may
cause  the  temperature  of  the  front
camera to become excessively high.
If the front camera is cold, such after
the vehicle is parked in an extremely
cold  environment,  use  the  air  condi-
tioning  system  to  increase  the  tem-
perature around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera
is  obstructed,  such  as  when  the
hood is open or a sticker is attached
to  the  part  of  the  windshield  in  front
of the front camera. Close  the  hood,  remove  the  sticker,
etc. to clear the obstruction.
When  “Pre-Collision  System  Radar
In  Self  Calibration  Unavailable  See
Owner’s Manual” is displayedCheck  whether  there  is  attached
materials  on  the  radar  sensor  and
radar  sensor  cover,  and  if  there  is,
remove it.

In  the  following  situations,  if  the  situation  has  changed  (or  the  vehicle  has
been  driven  for  some  time)  and  the  normal  operating  conditions  are
detected,  the  message  will  disappear  and  the  system  will  become  opera-
tional.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
• When  the  temperature  around  the  radar  sensor  is  outside  of  the  opera- tional  range,  such  as  when  the  vehicle  is  in  the  sun  or  in  an  e xtremely
cold environment
• When the front camera cannot detect objects in front of the ve hicle, such
as when driving in the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright lights are shining
into the front camera
• Depending  on  the  conditions  in  the  vicinity  of  the  vehicle,  th e  radar  may
judge  the  surrounding  environment  cannot  be  properly  recognized .  In
that case, “Pre-Collision System Unavailable See Owner's Manual ” is dis-
played.
