CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)
Sometimes the direction display on the
compass may not change after a turn. To
rectify this, stop the vehicle and push and
hold the “
” switch until “C” appears on
the display.
If “C” appears on the display because of
a drastic change in the magnetic field,
perform circling calibration.
CY19033
Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h (5
mph) or less. If there is not enough space
to drive in a circle, drive around the
block.
After driving 1 to 3 circles in the above
method, calibration is completed when the
direction is shown on the display.
If calibration cannot be performed because
of the magnetized vehicle etc., take your
vehicle to Toyota dealer. Perform circling calibration just after
you have purchased your Toyota. And
then always perform circling calibration
after the battery has been removed, re-
placed or disconnected.
Do not perform circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
During calibration, do not operate elec-
tric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with
the calibration.

3022007 4Runner from Aug. ’06 Prod. (OM35866U)
CAUTION
When doing the circling calibration,
be sure to secure a wide space,
and watch out for people and ve-
hicles in the neighborhood. Do not
violate any local traffic rules while
performing circling calibration.
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
The rear view monitor system assists
the driver by displaying an image of
the view behind the vehicle while back-
ing up. The image is displayed in re-
verse on the screen. This allows the
image to appear in the same manner as
that of the rear view mirror.
To display the rear view image on the
screen, place the selector lever in the
“R” position when the ignition switch is
in the “ON” position.
If you move the selector lever out of the
“R” position, the screen returns to the
previous screen. Operating another func-
tion of the navigation system will display
another screen.
The rear view monitor system is a supple-
ment device intended to assist back up.
When backing up, be sure to check be-
hind and all around the vehicle visually.CAUTION
Never depend on the rear view
monitor system entirely when back-
ing up. Always make sure your in-
tended path is clear.
Use caution, just as you would
when backing up any vehicle.
Never back up while looking only at
the screen. The image on the
screen is different from actual con-
ditions. Depicted distances between
objects and flat surfaces will differ
from actual distance. If you back up
while looking only at the screen,
you may hit a vehicle, a person or
an object. When backing up, be
sure to check behind and all around
the vehicle visually and with mir-
rors before proceeding.

3032007 4Runner from Aug. ’06 Prod. (OM35866U)
Do not use the system when the
back door is not completely closed.
If the back of the vehicle is hit, the
position and mounting angle of the
camera may change. Be sure to
have the camera’s position and
mounting angle checked at your
Toyota dealer.
If the temperature changes rapidly,
such as when hot water is poured
on the vehicle in cold weather, the
system may not operate normally.
If the camera lens becomes dirty, it
cannot transmit a clear image. If
water droplets, snow, or mud ad-
here to the lens, rinse with water
and wipe with a soft cloth. If the
lens is extremely dirty, wash it with
a mild cleanser and rinse.
Use your own eyes to confirm the
vehicle’s surroundings, as the dis-
played image may become faint or
dark, and moving images will be
distorted, or not entirely visible
when the outside temperature is
low. When backing up, be sure to
check behind and all around the ve-
hicle visually and with mirror before
proceeding.
When replacing the tires, please consult
your Toyota dealer. If you replace the
tires, the area displayed on the screen
may change.

THE REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
CAMERA
The rear view monitor system camera is
located on the back door as shown in the
illustration. The camera uses a special
lens. The distance of the image that ap-
pears on the screen differs from the actu-
al distance.
In the following cases, it may become
difficult to see the images on the screen,
even when the system is functioning.
In the dark (for example, at night)
When the temperature near the lens is
high or low
When water droplets are adhering to
the camera, or when humidity is high
(for example, when it rains)
When foreign matter (for example,
snow or mud) is adhering to the cam-
era
When the sun or the beam of head-
lights is shining directly into the cam-
era lens

If a bright light (for example, sunlight re-
flected off the vehicle body) is picked up
by the camera, the smear effect
∗ peculiar
to the camera may occur.
∗: Smear effect—A phenomenon that oc-
curs when a bright light (for example, sun-
light reflected off the vehicle body) is
picked up by the camera; when trans-
mitted by the camera, the light source
appears to have a vertical streak above

(a) Programming the HomeLink\b
The HomeLink\b in your vehicle has 3
buttons and you can store one program
for each button.
To ensure correct programming into the
HomeLink
\b, install a new battery in the
hand− held transmitter prior to program-
ming.
The battery side of the hand −held trans-
mitter must be pointed away from the
HomeLink
\b during the programming pro-
cess.
For Canadian users, follow the procedure
in “Programming an entrance gate/pro-
gramming all devices in the Canadian
market”.
1. Decide which of 3 HomeLink
\b buttons
you want to program.

3. Simultaneously press and hold the hand− held garage transmitter button
along with the selected HomeLink
\b but-
ton.
Do not release the buttons until step 4
has been completed.
4. When the indicator light on the HomeLink
\b changes from a slow to a
rapid flash after 20 seconds, you can
release both buttons.

5. Test the operation of the HomeLink\b by
pressing the newly programmed button.
If programming a garage door opener,
check to see if the garage door opens
and closes.
If the garage door does not operate,
identify if your garage transmitter is of the
“Rolling Code” type. Press and hold the
programmed HomeLink
\b button. The
garage door has the rolling code feature if
the indicator light (on the HomeLink
\b)
flashes rapidly and then remains lit after 2
seconds. If your garage transmitter is the
“Rolling Code” type, proceed to the
heading “Programming a rolling code
system”. 6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each re-
maining HomeLink
\b button to program
another device.
Programming a rolling code system
If your device is “Rolling Code”
equipped, it is necessary to follow
steps 1 through 4 under the heading
“Programming the HomeLink
\b” before
proceeding with the steps listed below.
1. Locate the “training” button on the ceil- ing mounted garage door opener motor.
The exact location and color of the
button may vary by brand of garage
door opener. Refer to the owner ’s
guide supplied by the garage door
opener manufacturer for the location of
this “training” button.
2. Press the “training” button on the ceil- ing mounted garage door opener motor.
Following this step, you have 30 seconds
in which to initiate step 3 below. 3. Press and release the vehicle’s pro- grammed HomeLink
\b button twice. The
garage door may open. If the door
does open, the programming process is
complete. If the door does not open,
press and release the button a third
time. This third press and release will
complete the programming process by
opening the garage door. The ceiling mounted garage door opener
motor should now recognize the
HomeLink
\b unit and be able activate the
garage door up/down.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each re- maining HomeLink
\b button to program
another rolling code system.
