on the standard of a flat road surface; the panoramic view/moving
view/see-through view may be displayed as follows.
• Objects may look collapsed; t hinner or bigger than usual.
• An object with a higher positi on than the road surface may look farther
away than it actually is or may not appear at all.
• Tall objects may appear protrudi ng from the non-displayed areas of the
image.
●Variations in the brightness of the image may appear for every camera.
●The displayed image may be shift ed by inclination of the vehicle body,
change in vehicle height, etc., d epending on the number of pass engers,
amount of luggage, fuel quantity, etc.
●If the front door s or back door are not c ompletely closed; neither the
image nor the guide lines are displayed.
●The position relations of the ve hicle icon and the road surface or obstacle
may differ from the actual positions.
●The black areas of the vicinity of the vehicle icon are areas t hat are not
captured by the camera.
●Images like the following are combined, thus some areas may be difficult
to view.
WARNING
●When a sensor indicator on the In tuitive parking assist display illumi-
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
safety has been ensured, otherwise an unexpected accident may o ccur.

●Black masking is done for dis-
tance detection differences to the
front of the vehicle.
●The area covered by the camera
is limited. Objects which are close
to either corner of the bumper or
under the bumper cannot be seen
on the screen.
●The area displayed on the screen
may vary depending on vehicle
orientation or road conditions.
●The camera uses a special lens.
The distance in the image dis-
played on the scr een will differ
from the actual distance.
The cameras for the panoramic
view monitor are located as
shown in the illustrations.

If dirt or foreign matter (such as
water droplets, snow, mud, etc.)
is adhering to the camera, it
cannot transmit a clear image.
In this case, flush it with a large
quantity of water and wipe the
camera lens clean with a soft
and wet cloth.

NOTICE
●The panoramic view monitor
may not operate properly in the
following cases.
• If the camera is hit, the position and mounting angle of the cam-
era may change.

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
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.
NOTICE
• As the camera has a water proof construction, do not
detach, disassemble or modify
it. This may cause incorrect
operation.
• When cleaning the camera lens, flush the camera with a large
quantity of water and wipe it
with a soft and wet cloth.
Strongly rubbing the camera
lens may cause the camera lens
to be scratched and unable to
transmit a clear image.
• 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.

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 any part of the vehicle
sags due to the number of pas-
sengers or the distribution of the
load, there is a margin of error
between the guide lines on the
screen and the actual dis-
tance/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 processes and displays images based on
flat road surfaces, it cannot depict the position of three-dime nsion
objects (such as vehicle bumpers , etc.) that are in positions higher
than the surface of the road. For example, even though it appea rs
that there is space between the bumpers of the two vehicles in the
illustration below and they are not likely to collide, in reali ty, a colli-
sion is about to occur.
The estimated course lines target flat surfaced objects (such a s 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-

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 bumper of the vehicle is on
the outside of the estimated
course line in the image, in real-

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

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

lines. In reality if you back up as
