The  distance  guide  lines  and  the  vehicle
width guide lines may not actually  be par-
allel  with  the  dividing  lines  of  the  parking
space,  even  when  they  appear  to  be  so.
Be sure to check visually.
 The  distances  between  the  vehicle  width
guide  lines  and  the  left  and  right  dividing
lines  of  the  parking  space  may  not  be
equal,  even  when  they  appear  to  be  so.
Be sure to check visually.
 The  distance  guide  lines  give  a  distance
guide  for  flat  road  surfaces.  In  any  of  the
following  situations,  there  is  a  margin  of
error  between the fixed  guide lines  on the
screen  and  the  actual  distance/course  on
the road.
NOTICE
● The  rear  view  monitor  system  may  not
operate properly in the following cases.
• If  the  back  of  the  vehicle  is  hit,  the
position  and  mounting  angle  of  the
camera may change.
• As  the  camera  has  a  water  proof  con- struction,  do  not  detach,  disassemble
or  modify  it.  This  may  cause  incorrect
operation.
• When  cleaning  the  camera  lens,  flush
the  camera  with  a  large  quantity  of
water  and  wipe  it  with  a  soft  and  wet
cloth. Strongly rubbing the camera lens
may  cause  the  camera  lens  to  be
scratched  and  unable  to  transmit  a
clear image.
• Do  not  allow  organic  solvent,  car  wax, window  cleaner  or  a  glass  coating  to
adhere  to  the  camera.  If  this  happens,
wipe it off as soon as possible.
• If  the  temperature  changes  rapidly, such  as  when  hot  water  is  poured  on
the vehicle in cold weather, the system
may not operate normally.
• When  washing  the  vehicle,  do  not
apply  intensive  bursts  of  water  to  the
camera or camera area. Doing so may
result in the camera malfunctioning.
● Do  not  expose  the  camera  to  strong
impact  as  this  could  cause  a  malfunc-
tion.  If  this  happens,  have  the  vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer as soon
as possible.

WHEN ANY PART OF THE 
VEHICLE SAGS
When any part of the vehicle sags due
to the number of passengers or the dis-
tribution  of  the  load,  there  is  a  margin
of  error  between  the  fixed  guide  lines
on the screen and the actual distance/
course on the road.
A margin of error
WHEN APPROACHING 
THREE-DIMENSIONAL 
OBJECTS
The distance guide lines are displayed
according  to  flat  surfaced  objects
(such as the road). It is not possible to
determine the position of three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicles) using
the  vehicle  width  guide  lines  and  dis-
tance guide lines. When approaching a
three-dimensional  object  that  extends
outward  (such  as  the  flatbed  of  a
truck), be careful of the following.

VEHICLE WIDTH GUIDE LINES
Visually  check  the  surroundings  and
the area behind the vehicle. In the case
shown  below,  the  truck  appears  to  be
outside of the vehicle width guide lines
and  the  vehicle  does  not  look  as  if  it
hits  the  truck.  However,  the  rear  body
of the truck may actually cross over the
vehicle  width  guide  lines.  In  reality  if
you  back  up  as  guided  by  the  vehicle
width  guide  lines,  the  vehicle  may  hit
the truck.DISTANCE GUIDE LINES
Visually  check  the  surroundings  and
the  area  behind  the  vehicle.  On  the
screen, it appears that a truck is park-
ing at point B. However, in reality if you
back up to point A, you will hit the truck.
On the screen, it appears that A is clos-
est and C is farthest away. However, in
reality,  the  distance  to  A  and  C  is  the
same, and B is farther than A and C.
