jected to a strong impact, have
the vehicle insp ected by your
Toyota dealer.
●Do not disassemble the radar
sensor.
●Do not modify or paint the radar
sensor or radar sensor cover.
●In the following cases, the radar
sensor must be recalibrated.

■If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information display
A system may be tempor arily 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 be come operational.
If the message does not disapp ear, contact your Toyota dealer.
●In the following situations, if the situation has changed (or the vehicle has

SituationActions
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.326, 334).
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 o f the front camera
is obstructed, such as when the
hood is open or a sticker is attached
to the part of the win dshield in front
of the front camera.
Close the hood, rem ove the sticker,
etc., to clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collisio n System Radar
In Self Calibration Unavailable See
Owner’s Manual” is displayed.Check whether there is attached
materials on the radar sensor and
radar sensor cover, and if there is,
remove it.

environment
• When the front camera cannot d etect objects in front of the vehicle, such
as when driving in the dark, sno w, 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 can not be properly recognize d. In that
case, “Pre-Collision System Unavailable See Owner’s Manual” is dis-
played.
