WIDE VIEW FRONT MONITOR SYSTEM
296
The wide view front monitor uses a super−
wide angle lens to display on screen the
areas to the left and right of the vehicle and
the blind spots to the front of the vehicle.
This system helps the driver check for ap-
proaching cars, bicycles and pedestrians
when at intersections with poor visibility.
CAUTION
DAlways make sure to check all
around the vehicle with your own
eyes when driving.
DDue to the property of the front
camera lens, the position of and
distance to people or objects dis-
played differs from actual position
and distance.
DNever depend on the front monitor
only. Use caution just as you would
when driving any other vehicle.
DNever drive while looking only at
the screen as the image on the
screen is different from actual con-
ditions. If you drive while looking
only at the screen, you may hit a
person or an object, resulting in an
accident. When driving, be sure to
check the vehicle’s surroundings
with your own eyes and the ve-
hicle’s mirrors.
DWhen the outside temperature is
low, the displayed image may be-
come faint or dark. Moving images
will be distorted or not entirely vis-
ible, so be sure to check the ve-
hicle’s surroundings with your
own eyes and the vehicle’s mirrors
while driving.
DThe displayed image may be darker
and moving images may be slightly
distorted when the system is cold.
DDo not use the front monitor in the following cases:
DOn icy or slick road surfaces,or
in snow
DWhen using tire chains or emer-
gency tires
DWhen the hood or the front pas-
senger door is not completely
closed
DOn roads that are not flat or di-
rect, such as slopes or curves

NOTICE
DIf the front of the vehicle is hit, the
camera’s position and mounting
angle may change. Contact your
Lexus dealer.
DRapid temperature changes, such
as when hot water is poured on the
vehicle in cold weather, may cause
the system to function abnormally.
DWhen replacing the tires, please
consult your Lexus dealer. If you
replace the tires, the area dis-
played on the screen may change.
DIf the camera lens is dirty, it cannot
transmit a clear image. Rinse with
water and wipe with a soft cloth. If
extremely dirty, wash with a mild
cleanser and rinse.
INFORMATION
DThe area displayed on the screen
may vary according to vehicle sta-
tus or road conditions.
D Due to the property of the front
camera lens, the perceived dis-
tance from images that appear on
the screen differs from the actual
distance.
D In the following cases, it may be-
come difficult to see the images on
the screen, but this is not a mal-
function:
D In the dark (for example, at night)
D When the temperature near the
lens is high or low
D When there are water droplets
on the camera lens, or when hu-
midity is high (for example,
when it rains)
D When foreign matter such as
mud is stuck to the front camera
D When the sun or the beam of
headlights is shining directly
into the camera lens
D The following symptoms may oc-
cur, but do not indicate a malfunc-
tion:
D The camera may fog up when hu-
midity is high (for example,
when it rains).
D When driving at night, ambient
lights such as the lights of the
vehicles ahead and building
lighting may be reflected into the
image.
D The center or four corners of the
image may decrease in definition.
D As the procedure is the same, fol-
low the instructions for navigation
screen adjustment to adjust the
wide view front monitor. (See page

The diagram shows the detection range of
the sensors. Note that the sensors cannot
detect obstacles that are extremely close
to the vehicle.
The range of the sensors may change de-
pending on the shape of the object etc.
DCertain vehicle conditions and the sur-
rounding environment may affect the
ability of a sensor to correctly detect an
obstacle. Particular instances where
this may occur are listed below.
DThere is dirt, snow or ice on a sen-
sor.
DA sensor is frozen.
DA sensor is covered in any way.
DThe vehicle is leaning considerably
to one side.
DOn an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass
DThe vicinity of the vehicle is noisy
due to vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines, air brakes of large ve-
hicles, or other loud noises produc-
ing ultrasonic waves.
DThere is another vehicle equipped
with parking assist sensors in the vi-
cinity.
DA sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
DThe vehicle is equipped with a fend-
er pole or radio antenna.
DTowing eyelets are installed.
DA bumper or sensor receives a
strong impact.
DThe vehicle is approaching a tall or
right− angled curb.
DIn harsh sunlight or intense cold
weather.
DA non− genuine Lexus suspension
(lowered suspension, etc.) is
installed.
In addition to the examples above, there
are instances in which, because of their
shapes, signs and other objects may be
judged by a sensor to be closer than they
are.
