■Cleaning the rear camera 
with washer fluid
Dirt on the rear camera lens can 
be cleaned by operating the 
dedicated camera cleaning 
washer. For details, refer to 
“OWNER’S MANUAL”.
 When cleaning the camera, it 
may be difficult to see the 
image due to the washer fluid. 
When backing up, be sure to 
visually check all around the 
vehicle both directly and using 
the mirrors before proceed-
ing.
 If washer fluid remains on the 
camera lens surface after 
cleaning, the image may be 
difficult to see at night due to  the height or inclination of the 
headlights of the vehicle 
behind.
 Some dirts may not be 
removed completely after 
cleaning. In this case, rinse 
the camera lens with a large 
quantity of water and then 
wipe it clean with a soft cloth 
dampened with water.
 Washer fluid is sprayed onto 
the camera lens surface. 
Therefore, the ice, snow, etc. 
adhering around the camera 
cannot be removed.
 The distance guide lines and 
the vehicle width guide lines 
may not actually be parallel 
with the dividing lines of the 
parking space, even when 
they appear to be so. Be sure 
to check visually.
 The distances between the 
vehicle width guide lines and 
the left and right dividing lines 
of the parking space may not 
be equal, even when they 
appear to be so. Be sure to 
NOTICE
• Do not allow an organic solvent, 
car wax, window  cleaner or a 
glass coating to adhere to the 
camera. If this happens, wipe it 
off as soon as possible.
• If the temperature changes rap- idly, such as when hot water is 
poured on the vehicle in cold 
weather, the system may not 
operate normally.
• When washing the vehicle, do  not apply intensive bursts of 
water to the camera or camera 
area. Doing so may result in the 
camera malfunctioning.
●Do not expose  the camera to 
strong impacts as this could 
cause a malfunction. If this hap-
pens, have the vehicle 
inspected by your Toyota dealer 
as soon as possible.
NOTICE
●Do not strike or hit the washer 
nozzle or subject it to a strong 
impact, as the washer nozzle 
installation position and angle 
may be changed.

check visually.
 The distance guide lines give 
a distance guide for flat road 
surfaces. In any of the follow-
ing situations, there is a mar-
gin of error between the guide 
lines on the screen and the 
actual distance/course on the 
road.
The distance guide lines will 
appear to be closer to the vehi-
cle than the actual distance. 
Because of this , objects will 
appear to be farther away than 
they actually are. In the same 
way, there will be a margin of 
error between the guidelines 
and the actual distance/course 
on the road. The distance guide lines will 
appear to be farther from the 
vehicle than the actual distance. 
Because of this, objects will 
appear to be closer than they 
actually are. In the same way, 
there will be a margin of error 
between the guidelines and the 
actual distance/course on the 
road.

When there are three-dimensional  objects (such as vehicle bum-
pers, etc.) nearby in positions  higher than the surface of the road, 
take extra care when using the following.
Since the panoramic view, Side Clearance View and Cornering Vie w 
process and display images based on flat road surfaces, it cann ot 
depict the position of three-dimens ion objects (such as vehicle bum-
pers, etc.) that are in positions higher than the surface of th e road. 
For example, even though it appears that there is space between  the 
bumpers of the two vehicles in the illustration below and they are not 
likely to collide, in  reality, a collision is about to occur.

nates in red or a buzzer sounds continuously, be sure to check  the area 
around the vehicle immediately a nd do not proceed any further until

The estimated course lines target flat surfaced objects (such as the 
road). It is not possible to determine the position of three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicles ) using the estimated course lines 
and distance guide lines. When app roaching a three-dimensional 
object that extends outward (such as the flatbed of a truck), b e care-
ful of the following.

Since the estimated course line 
is displayed for a flat road sur-
face, it cannot depict the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects 
(such as vehicle bumpers, etc.) 
that are in positions higher than 
the surface of the road. Even if 
the bumpers of the vehicle is on 
the outside of the estimated 
course line in the image, in real-
ity, the vehicles are on a colli-
sion course.
Estimated course line
Three-dimensional objects 
(such as the overhang of a wall 
or loading platform of a truck) in 
high positions may not be pro-
jected on the screen. Check the 
safety of the surroundings 
directly. Visually check the surroundings 
and the area behind the vehicle. 
In the case shown below, the 
truck appears to be outside of 
the estimated course lines and 
the vehicle does not look as if it 
hits the truck. However, the rear 
body of the truck may actually 
cross over the estimated course 
lines. In reality if you back up as 
guided by the estimated course 
lines, the vehicle may hit the 
truck.
