The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying an
image of the area behind the vehicle. The image is displayed in
reverse on the screen. This reversed im age is a similar image to the
one on the inside rear view mirror.
The rear view image is dis-
played when the shift lever is
in the R position.
If the shift lever is shifted out of
R, the screen returns to the
previous one.

● Never depend solely on the monitor system when reversing.
● Always check visually and with the mirrors to confirm your intended path is
clear.

distances.
● Do not use the system if the back door is open.
■ Conditions which may affect the rear view monitor system
● If the back of the vehicle has been hit, the camera’s position and mounting
angle may have changed. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota

water and wipe with a soft cloth. If extremely dirty, wash with a mild
cleanser and rinse.
