The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that has 2 functions:
 The BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)
function
Assists the driver in making a
decision when changing lanes
 The RCTA (Rear Crossing
Traffic Alert) function (if
equipped)
Assists the driver when backing
up
These functions use the same
sensors.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the BSM function
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely, tak- ing care to observe your surround-ings.
The BSM function is a supplementary 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 BSM func-
tion. As the function cannot judge if it is safe to change lanes, over reliance could lead to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
As the system may not function cor- rectly under certain conditions, the
driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
■Cautions regarding the use of the RCTA function

The RCTA function is only a supple- mentary function which alerts the driver that a vehicle is approaching
from the right or left at the rear of the vehicle. As the RCTA function may not function correctly under certain
conditions, the driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
Over reliance on this function may
lead to an accident resulting death or serious injury.

sors to detect the following vehicles
traveling in adjacent lanes and
advises the driver of the presence
of such vehicles via the indicators
WARNING
■Handling the radar sensor
Blind Spot Monitor sensors are
installed inside the left and right sides of the rear bumper respectively. Observe the following to ensure the
Blind Spot Monitor can function cor- rectly.
●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 cov-ered with snow, the Blind Spot
Monitor may not operate and a warning message ( P.394) will be displayed. In this situation, clear off
the dirt or snow and drive the vehi- cle with the operation conditions of the BSM function ( P.410) satis-
fied for approximately 10 minutes. If the warning message does not dis-appear, have the vehicle inspected
by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not subject a sensor or its sur-rounding area on the rear bumper to a strong impact.
If a sensor is moved even slightly off position, the system may mal-function and vehicles may not be
detected correctly. In the following situations, have your vehicle inspected by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
• A sensor or its surrounding area is subject to a strong impact.
• If the surrounding area of a sensor
is scratched or dented, or part of them has become disconnected.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not attach accessories, stickers
(including transparent stickers), alu- minum tape, etc. to a sensor or its surrounding area on the rear
bumper.
●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 any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not paint the rear bumper any
color other than an official Toyota color.

a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a guardrail, wall, etc. that
enters the detection area is short
• When driving up and down consecu-
tive steep inclines, such as hills, dips
in the road, etc.

when driving on the edge of a lane,
and a vehicle traveling in a lane other
than the adjacent lanes enters the
detection area
• When driving on roads with sharp
bends, consecutive curves, or uneven
surfaces

• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a following vehicle is short
• When an accessory (such as a bicycle
carrier) is installed to the rear of the
vehicle
• When the vehicle throws up water or
snow behind.
■Operation of the RCTA func-
tion
The RCTA function uses radar sen-
sors to detect vehicles approaching
from the right or left at the rear of
the vehicle and alerts the driver of
the presence of such vehicles by
flashing the outside rear view mirror
indicators and sounding a buzzer.Approaching vehicles

WARNING
■Toyota parking assist-sensor precautions
Observe the following precautions. Failing to do so may result in the vehi-cle being unable to be driven safely
and possibly cause an accident.
●Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 10 km/h (6 mph).
●The sensors’ detection areas and
reaction times are limited. When moving forward or reversing, check the areas surrounding the vehicle
(especially the sides of the vehicle) for safety, and drive slowly, using the brake to control the vehicle’s
speed.
●Do not install accessories near the
bumpers as those areas are within the sensors’ detection areas.

4165-5. Using the driving support systems
■The system can be operated when
●The power switch is in ON.
●Toyota parking assist-sensor function is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
●The shift lever is in other than P.
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on the multi-information
display
A sensor may be covered with ice,
snow, dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return the system to normal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low temperatures, a warning message may be displayed or the sensor may not
be able to detect an object. Once the ice melts, the system will return to normal.
If a warning message is displayed even
if the sensor is clean, there may be a sensor malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
●The area directly under the bum-pers is not detected.
Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when approached, even if they have been
detected once.
■When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the function as it may operate even though there is no possibility of a colli-
sion.
●The vehicle is equipped with a com- mercial fender pole, wireless
antenna or fog lights.
●The front or rear bumper or a sen-
sor receives a strong impact.
●A non-genuine Toyota suspension
(lowered suspension, etc.) is installed.
●Towing eyelets are installed.
●A backlit license plate is installed.
●When using an automatic car wash
■When using the Toyota parking assist-sensor
In the following situations, the system
may not function correctly due to a sensor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle checked by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●The Toyota parking assist-sensor operation display flashes or shows continuously, and a beep sounds
when no objects are detected.
●If the area around a sensor collides
with something, or is subjected to strong impact.
●If the bumper or grille collides with something.
●If the display flashes or is displayed continuously and a buzzer does not sound, except when the mute func-
tion has been turned on.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray the sensors directly, as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too close to the sensors as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunction.
