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. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe
your surroundings.
●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 func-
tion cannot judge if it is safe to
change lanes, over reliance
could lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury. As
the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual
confirmation of safety is neces-
sary.

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 covered with snow, the Blind
Spot Monitor may not operate
and a warning message will be
displayed. In this situation, clear
off the dirt or snow and drive the
vehicle with the operation condi-
tions of the BSM function
(  P.357) satisfied for approxi-
mately 10 minutes. If the warn-
ing 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 paint the surrounding
area of a sensor 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.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not modify the sensor or sur-
rounding area on the rear
bumper.
●If a sensor or the rear bumper
needs to be removed/installed
or replaced, contact your
Toyota dealer.
●The sensors are likely to be
affected by paint on the rear
bumper. If the rear bumper is
not repaired correctly, the Blind
Spot Monitor may not operate
with a warning message dis-
played. If any paint repair is
needed, contact your Toyota
dealer.

Safe Exit Assist*
The safe exit assist is a sys-
tem that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper to help occupants
judge if an approaching
vehicle or bicycle may col-
lide with a door when exit-
ing, to help reduce the
possibility of a collision.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
●The driver is solely responsible
for safe driving. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe
your surroundings.
●The safe exit assist is a supple-
mentary system that, when the
vehicle is stopped, informs
occupants of th e existence of
approaching vehicles and bicy-
cles. As this system alone can-
not be used to judge safety,
over-reliance on this system
may lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
In certain situations, this system
may not function to its fullest
extent. Therefore it is necessary
for the occupants to visually
check for safety directly and using
the mirrors.
