a TFT color multi-information display
The BSM function or the RCTA function can be switched ON and OFF.
bOutside rear view mirror indicators
Installed on the outside rear view mirrors. When they detect a vehicle approaching
from behind, they light up or start flashing.
BSM function: When a vehicle is detected in the blind spot area of the outside rear
view mirrors or when a vehicle rapidly approaching into the blind spot area is
detected from the behind, it lights up the outside rear view mirror indicator of the
side that detected the vehicle. When you have moved the turn signal lever to the
side where the vehicle is detected, the outside rear view mirror indicators start
flashing.
RCTA function: When a vehicle approaching from the right or left rear end of your
vehicle is detected, both of the outside rear view mirror indicators start flashing.
c BSM OFF indicator/RCTA OFF indicator
When you turn off the BSM function, the BSM OFF indicator lights up.

dBuzzer

WARNING
⬛To use the BSM function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The BSM function is an auxilia ry system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that has entere d or is rapidly approaching toward the
blind spot area of the outside rear view mirrors. Since this system alone is not
sufficient for determining the feasibility of changing lanes, overly relying on the
system could lead to an unforeseen accid ent, resulting in serious injury or
death.
This system does not work effectively depending on the circumstances. The
driver is responsible for checking the safety around the vehicle by using his/
her own eyes and the mirrors.
⬛To use the RCTA function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The RCTA function is an auxiliary system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that is approaching from the right or left rear of the vehi-
cle.
Even with the RCTA function enabled, this system does not work effectively
depending on the circumstances. The dr iver is responsible for checking the
safety around the vehicle by using his/her own eyes.
Overly relying on the system could lead to an unforeseen accident, resulting in
serious injury or death.

WARNING
⬛Handling of the radar sensors
⚫The BSM sensors are installed
inside the rear bumper, one each
on the right and left side.
For the system to work properly,
observe the precautions listed
below.
⚫Keep the rear bumper near the sensors clean at all times.
If the rear bumper near the sensors is covered with rain, snow, ice, or dirt,
the warning display ( ➞P. 389) will appear, and the system may stop working.
If that happens, remove the rain, snow, ice, or dirt from the rear bumper,
and drive the vehicle for a while (appro x. 10 minutes) under the activation
conditions of the BSM function ( ➞P. 216). If the warning display persists,
have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.

not be able to detect vehicles correctly, or the devices may not work as
intended.
⚫In the following case, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
⦁ The sensors and the areas near the sensors received a strong impact
⦁ There is a scratch or dent on the rear bumper near the sensors, or some
of the bumper parts are missing
⚫Do not disassemble the sensors.
⚫Do not paste stickers or install accessories on the sensors or on the rear
bumper near the sensors.

dented areas of a road
