When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a suppleme ntal device intended to assist the driver
when backing up. When backing up, be sure to check visually behind and all
around the vehicle before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in death or
serious injuries. ●
Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up. The
image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may differ from
the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle. ●
When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate your
vehicle before maneuvering into it. ●
Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.●
In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become faint. The
image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may become unable to
see the image on the screen. Be sure to check direct visually and with the mirrors
all around the vehicl e before proceeding.●
The camera uses a special lens. The di stances between objects and pedestrians
that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ from the actual dis-
tances. (  P. 292)

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) ● Parallel parking assist mode information
• There is a possibility that parallel pa rking guidance may not be given
when backing up at a very slow speed.
• If the back door is opened during parallel parking guidance, parallel
parking assist will be interrupted and canceled. Stop the vehicle,
shift the shift lever out of the “R ” position, and restart the operation
from .
● Canceling parallel parking assist Select .

When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Wide view front & side monitor 
 : If equippedThis system can display th e wide view front monitor and the side monitor
separately or at the same time.
The wide view front monitor uses a super-wide angle le ns to display on
screen the areas to the left and righ t of the vehicle and the blind spots to
the front of the vehicle. This system helps the driver check for approaching
cars, bicycles and pedestrians when at intersections with poor visibility.
The side monitor uses a camera instal led in the passenger’s side outside
rear view mirror to display on screen the area to the fron t-right of the vehi-
cle, helping the driver check this area.
On/off The simultaneous display screen
is displayed when the VIEW
switch is pressed.
