Before driving
■Cleaning the mirror surface
If the mirror surface is dirty, the
image on the display may be dif-
ficult to see.
Clean the mirror surface gently
using a soft dry cloth.
■Cleaning the camera
If the camera lens is dirty or cov-
ered with foreign matter, such as
water droplets, snow, mud, etc.,
the displayed image may not be
clear. In this case, rinse the
camera lens with a large quan-
tity of water and then wipe it
clean with a soft cloth damp- ened with water.
Dirt on the camera lens can be
cleaned by operating the dedi-
cated camera cleaning washer.
(
P.204)
■The camera
The camera for the Digital Rear-
view Mirror is located as shown.
■Camera cleaning with washer
fluid
●It may become difficult to see the
rear view of the vehicle due to the
washer fluid which is sprayed
when washing the camera, so
drive while take heed of the sur-
rounding conditions.
●If washer fluid remains on the
camera lens surface after washing
the camera, it may be difficult to
see the rear view of the vehicle
due to the height a nd slope of the
head lamps on the vehicle follow-
ing at night. In that case, change
to optical mirror mode.
●There are cases where even
when the camera is washed it will
not be completed cleaned due to
the dirt. In such cases, rinse off
the camera with large amounts of
water and wipe off the water drop-
lets with soft cloth dampened with
water.
●Reflective items, such as water,
snow, etc., which are attached in
the vicinity of the camera cannot
be washed as the camera clean-
ing sprays washer fluid to the
camera lens.
WARNING
●Always pay attention to the
vehicle’s surroundings.
The size of the vehicles and other
objects may look different when in
digital mirror mode and optical
mirror mode.
When backing up, make sure to
directly check the safety of the
area around your vehicle, espe-
cially behind the vehicle.
Additionally, if a vehicle
approaches from the rear in the
dark, such as at night, the sur-
rounding area may appear dim.
■To prevent causes of fire
If the driver continues using the
Digital Rear-view Mirror while
smoke or odor comes from the
mirror, it may res ult in fire. Stop
using the system immediately and
contact your Toyota dealer.

■Automatic adjustment of the
mirror angle (if equipped)
A desired mirror face angle can be
entered to memory and recalled
automatically by the driving position
memory. ( P.142)
1Folds the mirrors
2 Extends the mirrors
Putting the switch in the neutral
position sets the mirrors to auto-
matic mode. Automatic mode
allows the folding or extending of
the mirrors to be linked to lock-
ing/unlocking of the doors.
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.
( P.512)
When either “L” or “R” of the mir-
ror select switch is selected, the
outside rear view mirrors will
automatically angle downwards
when the vehicle is reversing in
order to give a better view of the
ground.
To disable this function, select
neither “L” nor “R”.
■Adjusting the mirror angle
when the vehicle is revers-
ing
With the shift position in R,
adjust the mirror angle at a
desired position.
The adjusted angle will be mem-
orized and the mirror will auto-
matically tilt to the memorized
angle whenever the shift posi-
tion is shifted to R from next
time.
The memorized downward tilt posi-
tion of the mirror is linked to the
normal position (angle adjusted
with the shift posit ion in other than
R). Therefore, if the normal position
is changed after adjustment, the tilt
position will also change.
When the normal position is
changed, readjust the angle in
reversing.
WARNING
■When the mirror defoggers
are operating
Do not touch the rear view mirror
surfaces, as they can become
very hot and burn you.

cally shut off after approximately 1
hour if it has been left running
while the shift position is in P.
●The timer for the automatic fuel
cell system shut off feature will
reset if the brake pedal is
depressed or if the shift position is
in a position other than P.
●After the vehicle is parked, if the
door is locked with the door lock
switch ( P.130) from the inside or
the mechanical key from the out-

Driving
This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to
approximately 328 ft. (100 m) ahead, determines the current veh icle-
to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable fol-
lowing distance from the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to- vehi-
cle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, the vehicle-to-vehicle distanc e may
become shorter.

WARNING
●When weather conditions are
bad enough that they may pre-
vent the sensors from detecting
correctly (fog, snow, sand-
storm, heavy rain, etc.)
●When there is rain, snow, etc.,
on the front surface of the radar
or front camera
●In traffic conditions that require
frequent repeated acceleration
and deceleration
●During emergency towing
