washer or change to optical mir-
ror mode. (P.275)
■The camera
The camera for the Digital Rear-
view Mirror is located as shown.
■Cleaning the camera with
washer fluid
●When cleaning the camera, it may
be difficult to see the image due to
the washer fluid. Therefore, take
care in the surrounding area while
driving.
●If washer fluid remains on the
camera lens surface after clean-
ing, the image may be difficult to
see at night due to the height or
inclination of the headlights of the
vehicle behind. In this case,
change to optical mirror mode.
●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 cooling fan
There is a cooling fan in the Digital
Rear-view Mirror. Cooling fan
sounds may be heard when using the system.
NOTICE

thinner, benzene, and alcohol to
clean the mirror. They may dis-
color, deteriorate or damage the
mirror surface.
●Do not smoke, use matches,
use cigarette lighters or allow
open flames near the mirror. It
may damage the mirror or
cause a fire.
●Do not remove, disassemble or
modify the mirror.
●Do not block the vent holes of
the mirror. Other
wise, the mirror
may be hot, leading to a mal-
function or a fire.
■To prevent the camera from
malfunctioning

tions, otherwise the Digital
Rear-view Mirror may not oper-
ate properly.
• Do not strike or hit the camera or subject it to a strong impact,

If you notice any of the following symptoms, refer to the following
table for the likely cause and the solution.
If the symptom is not resolved by the solution, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
• When washing the camera, rinse it with a large quantity of
water and then wipe it clean
with a soft cloth dampened with
water. Do not strongly rub the
camera lens, as it may be
scratched and will not be able to
transmit a clear image.
• Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or
glass coat to adhere to the cam-
era cover. If this happens, wipe
it off as soon as possible.
• Do not apply hot water to the camera in cold weather, as the
sudden change of temperature
may cause the camera to not
operate properly.
• When using a high pressure washer to wash the vehicle, do
not directly spray the camera
and its surrounding area, as
doing so may cause the camera
to not operate properly.
●Do not subject the camera to a
strong impact as this could
cause a malfunction.
If this happens, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
