will not operate for the side on which lane markers could not be recognized.
■Conditions in which the function may not operate correctly
In the following conditions, the LKA system functions may not operate, or it may not
be possible to ensure adequate performance. Also, the camera sensor may be
unable to recognize lane lines causing the lane departure warning function to oper-
ate incorrectly, or the lane keeping assist function may not operate properly. How-
ever, this does not indicate a malfunction.

CAUTION
■Cautions regarding the use of the system
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a supplementary system which alerts the driver that a
vehicle is present in the blind spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot Monitor
system. The system cannot judge if it is safe to change lanes, therefore over reli-
ance could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury. According to
conditions, the system may not function correctly. Therefore the driver’s own visual
confirmation of safety is necessary.
■Handling the radar sensor
One Blind Spot Monitor sensor is installed inside the left and right side of the vehi-
cle rear bumper respectively. Observe the following to ensure the Blind Spot
Monitor system can function correctly.
●Do not subject the sensor or surrounding area on the bumper to a strong impact.
If the sensor moves even slightly off position, the system may malfunction and
vehicles that enter the detection area may not be detected. If the sensor or sur-
rounding area is subject to a strong impact, always have the area inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not attach accessories or stickers to the sensor or surrounding area on the
bumper.
●Do not modify the sensor or surrounding area on the bumper.
●Do not paint the sensor or surrounding area on the bumper.
●Keep the sensor and its surrounding area
on the bumper clean at all times.

NOTICE
■The near-infrared camera
●Make sure the front windshield is kept clean.
●System performance may deteriorate if rain water, condensation or ice adheres
to the camera. If you notice the inner lens of the camera is dirty, the garnish will
have to be replaced. Consult your Lexus dealer.
●Do not subject the camera to strong impacts, or disassemble the camera.
●As the alignment of the camera has been very finely adjusted, do not change or
remove the mounting.
●If the front windshield fogs up, defog the windshield using the front defroster.
●Do not dirty or scratch the camera lens.
●Night view may not function properly if an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing that blocks the sensor is affixed to the windshield.
■The near-infrared light
●System performance may deteriorate if the areas around the headlights are dirty.
Clean the vehicle if it is dirty.
●The near-infrared light irradiates strong energy not visible to the eyes. Do not
stare at the light at close range for a long time.
Follow these precautions to avoid damage to
or incorrect operation of the Lexus night
view.
