1. TOYOTA PARKING ASSIST MONITOR
1. TOYOTA PARKING ASSIST MONITOR*
The parking assist monitor assists the
driver by displaying an image of the
view behind the vehicle while backing
up, for example while parking. When
the display is changed to the wide rear
view mode, a wider lateral view behind
the vehicle will be displayed.
INFORMATION
●The screen illustrations used in this text
are intended as examples, and may dif-
fer from the image that is actually dis-
played on the screen.
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
The parking assist monitor is a supple-
mental device intended to assist the
driver when backing up. When backing
up, be sure to visually check all around
the vehicle both directly and using the
mirrors before proceeding. If you do
not, you may hit another vehicle, and
could possibly cause an accident.
Pay attention to the following precau-
tions when using the parking assist
monitor.
WA R N I N G
●Never depend on the parking assist
monitor entirely when backing up. The
image and the position of the guide lines
displayed on the screen may differ from
the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when
backing up any vehicle.
● Be sure to back up slowly, depressing
the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.
● If you seem likely to hit nearby vehicles,
obstacles, people or mount the shoulder,
depress the brake pedal to stop the
vehicle.
*: If equipped
WA R N I N G
●The instructions given are only guide-
lines. When and how much to turn the
steering wheel will vary according to
traffic conditions, road surface condi-
tions, vehicle condition, etc. when park-
ing. It is necessary to be fully aware of
this before using the parking assist sys-
tem.
● When parking, be sure to check that the
parking space will accommodate your
vehicle before maneuvering into it.
● Do not use the parking assist monitor in
the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in
snow
• When using tire chains or emergency tires
• When the trunk is not closed com- pletely
• On roads that are not flat or straight,
such as curves or slopes
• If the suspension has been modified or tires of a size other than specified are
installed
● In low temperatures, the screen may
darken or the image may become faint.
The image could distort when the vehi-
cle is moving, or you may become
unable to see the image on the screen.
Be sure to visually check all around the
vehicle both directly and using the mir-
rors before proceeding.
● If the tire sizes are changed, the position
of the guide lines displayed on the
screen may change.
● The camera uses a special lens. The
distances between objects and pedestri-
ans that appear in the image displayed
on the screen will differ from the actual
distances. ( P.154)
