the camera’s position and mounting angle may have changed. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
●As the camera has a water proof constr uction, do not detach, disassemble or

wipe with a soft cloth. If the camera lens is extremely dirty, wash with a mild
cleanser and rinse.
●Do not strongly rub the camera lens. If the camera lens is scratched, it cannot
transmit a clear image.
●Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or glass coat to adhere to
the camera. If this happens, wipe it off as soon as possible.

when the system is cold.
●Situations unsuitable for Multi-terrain Monitor
