Toyota dealer.
WARNING
■When the Stop & Start system
is operating
Make sure to disable the Stop &
Start system while the vehicle is in
a poorly ventilated area. If not dis-
abled, the engine may be auto-
matically restarted unexpectedly,
causing exhaust gases to collect
and enter the vehicle, possibly
resulting in death or a serious
health hazard.
●Do not leave the vehicle while
the engine is stopped by the
Stop & Start system (while the
Stop & Start indicator is on). An
accident may occur due to the
automatic engine start function.
●Depress the brake pedal and

multi-information display
Ice, snow, mud, etc., may be
attached to the rear bumper around
the sensors. ( P.234) The system
should return to normal operation

BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver in
confirming safety when
changing lanes.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. A lways drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary function which alerts
the driver that a vehicle is in a
blind spot of the outside rear view
mirrors or is approaching rapidly
from behind into a blind spot. Do
not overly rely on the Blind Spot
Monitor. As the function cannot
judge if it is safe to change lanes,
over reliance could lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.

shown on the multi-information
display
There may be a sensor malfunction
of misaligned. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.
(  P.563)
WARNING
■To ensure the system can
operate properly
Blind Spot Monitor sensors are
installed behind the left and right
sides of the rear bumper respec-
tively. Observe the following to
ensure the Blind Spot Monitor can
operate correctly.
●Keep the sensors and the sur-
rounding areas on the rear
bumper clean at all times.
If a sensor or its surrounding area
on the rear bumper is dirty or cov-
ered with snow, the Blind Spot
Monitor may not operate and a
warning message (
P.233) will
be displayed. In this situation,
clear off the dirt or snow and drive
the vehicle with the operation con-
ditions of the BSM function
(
P.237) satisfied for approxi-
mately 10 minutes. If the warning
message does not disappear,
have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
●Do not attach accessories,
stickers (including transparent
stickers), aluminum tape, etc. to
a sensor or its surrounding area
on the rear bumper.
●Do not subject a sensor or its
surrounding area on the rear
bumper to a strong impact.
If a sensor is moved even
slightly off position, the system
may malfunction and vehicles
may not be detected correctly.
In the following si tuations, have
your vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
• A sensor or its surrounding area is subject to a strong impact.
• If the surrounding area of a sen- sor is scratched or dented, or
part of them has become dis-
connected.

■Vehicles that can be detected by the Blind Spot Monitor
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear si de radar sensors to detect the fol-
lowing vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of
the presence of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear
view mirrors.
Vehicles that are traveling in areas that are not visible using the
outside rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
Vehicles that are approaching r apidly from behind in areas that
are not visible using the outside rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
■The Blind Spot Monitor detection areas
The areas that vehicles can be detected in are outlined below.
WARNING
●Do not disassemble the sensor.

tor unnecessarily detecting a vehi-
cle and/or object may increase in
the following situations:

sor or its surrounding area
• When the distance between your vehicle and a guardrail, wall, etc.
that enters the detection area is
short
• When driving up and down con- secutive steep inclines, such as
hills, dips in the road, etc.
