WARNING

Sensor detection information
Pay particular attention to the following instances in where this may occur.
Failing to do so way result in the vehicle being unable to be driven or parked
safety and possibly cause an accident.

The sensor’s detection areas are limited to the areas around the vehicle’s
front corner and rear bumpers.

Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect the
ability of the sensor to correctly detect obstacles. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed below.
• There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor. (Wiping the sensors will resolve

this problem.)

• The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
• The sensor is covered in any way.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
• The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to vehicle horns, motorcycle

engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noises producing
ultrasonic waves.

• There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensors in the

vicinity.

• The sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
• The vehicle is equipped with a fender pole or radio antenna.
• The bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.
• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
• The area directly under the bumpers is not detected.
• If obstacles draw too close to the sensor.
• A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension, etc.) is

installed.

• A backlit license plate, license plate holder, etc., are installed.
• People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types and color-

ing of clothing.

• People, animals, and moving objects may not be able to be detected.

In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shape, signs and other objects may be judged by the sensor to be
closer than they are.

274

4-5. Using the driving support systems

WARNING

The shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of

your vehicle

The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detection

distance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.

• Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between obstacle detection and display.

Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility that the obstacle will come
within the sensor’s detection areas before the display is shown and the
warning beep sounds.

• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected for col-

lision when approached, even if they have been detected once.

• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of audio system or

air flow noise of air conditioning system.

NOTICE

When using intuitive parking assist-sensor
In the following situations, the system may not function correctly due to a
sensor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle checked by your Toyota dealer.

A beep does not sound when you turn the main switch on.

The intuitive parking assist operation display flashes, and a beep sounds
when no obstacles are detected.

If the area around a sensor collides with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.

If the bumper collides with something.

If the display shows continuously without a beep.

If a display error occurs, first check the sensor.
If the error occurs even if there is no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is
likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.

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.

Area displayed on screen
The rear view monitor system
displays an image of the view
from the bumper of the rear
area of the vehicle.
The image adjustment proce-
dure for the rear view monitor
system screen is the same as
the procedure for adjusting the
screen. (

P. 333)

• The area displayed on the

screen may vary according to
vehicle orientation conditions.

• Objects which are close to either

corner of the bumper or under
the bumper cannot be dis-
played.

• The camera uses a special lens.

The distance of the image that
appears on the screen differs
from the actual distance.

• Items which are located higher than the camera may not be displayed

on the monitor.

● Using the camera

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.

Differences between the screen and the actual road
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 sur-
faces. In any of the following situations, there is a margin of error
between the fixed guide lines on the screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.

● When the ground behind the vehicle slopes up sharply

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 guide lines
and the actual distance/course
on the road.

280

4-5. Using the driving support systems

● When the ground behind the vehicle slopes down sharply

The distance guide lines will
appear to be further from the
vehicle than the actual dis-
tance. 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 guide lines
and the actual distance/course
on the road.

● When any part of the vehicle sags

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 fixed guide
lines on the screen and the
actual distance/course on the
road.

When approaching three-dimensional objects
The distance guide lines are displayed according to flat surfaced
objects (such as the road). It is not possible to determine the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects (such as vehicles) using the vehi-
cle width guide lines and distance guide lines. When approaching a
three-dimensional object that extends outward (such as the flatbed
of a truck), be careful of the following.

● Vehicle width guide lines

Visually check the surroundings
and the area behind the vehi-
cle. In the case shown below,
the truck appears to be outside
of the vehicle width guide lines
and the vehicle does not look
as if it hits the truck. However,
the rear body of the truck may
actually cross over the vehicle
width guide lines. In reality if
you back up as guided by the
vehicle width guide lines, the
vehicle may hit the truck.

Visually check the surroundings
and the area behind the vehi-
cle. On the screen, it appears
that a truck is parking at point

and the solution, and re-check.
If the symptom is not resolved by the solution, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.

Things you should know

Likely cause

Solution

The image is difficult to see

• The vehicle is in a dark area
• The temperature around the lens

is either high or low

• The outside temperature is low
• There are water droplets on the

camera

• It is raining or humid
• Foreign matter (mud, etc.) is

adhering to the camera

• There are scratches on the cam-

era

• Sunlight or headlights are shining

directly into the camera

• The vehicle is under fluorescent

lights, sodium lights, mercury
lights, etc.

If this happens due to these causes,
it does not indicate a malfunction.
Back up while visually checking the
vehicle’s surroundings. (Use the
monitor again once conditions have
been improved.)
The procedure for adjusting the pic-
ture quality of the rear view monitor
system is the same as the proce-
dure for adjusting the screen.

The image is blurry

Dirt or foreign matter (such as water
droplets, snow, mud, etc.) is adher-
ing to the camera.

Flush the camera with a large quan-
tity of water and wipe the camera
lens clean with a soft and wet cloth.

The image is out of alignment

The camera or surrounding area has
received a strong impact.

Have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.

The fixed guide lines are very far out of alignment

The camera position is out of align-
ment.

Have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.

• The vehicle is tilted (there is a

heavy load on the vehicle, tire
pressure is low due to a tire punc-
ture, etc.)

• The vehicle is used on an incline.

If this happens due to these causes,
it does not indicate a malfunction.
Back up while visually checking the
vehicle’s surroundings.

WARNING

When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a supplemental device intended to assist
the driver when backing up. When backing up, be sure to visually check all
around the vehicle both directly and using the mirrors before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in
death or serious injuries.

Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up.
The image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may
differ from the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle.

Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle
speed.

The instructions given are only guide lines.
When and how much to turn the steering wheel will vary according to traf-
fic conditions, road surface conditions, vehicle condition, etc. when park-
ing. It is necessary to be fully aware of this before using the rear view
monitor system.

When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate
your vehicle before maneuvering into it.

Do not use the rear view monitor system in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or emergency tires
• When the tailgate is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or slopes.

In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become
faint. The image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may
become unable to see the image on the screen. Be sure to visually check
all around the vehicle both directly and using the mirrors before proceed-
ing.

If the tire sizes are changed, the position of the fixed guide lines displayed
on the screen may change.

The camera uses a special lens. The distances between objects and
pedestrians that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ
from the actual distances. (

NOTICE

How to use the camera

The rear view monitor system may not operate properly in the following
cases.
• If the back of the vehicle is hit, the position and mounting angle of the

camera may change.

• As the camera has a water proof construction, do not detach, disassem-

ble 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 cam-
era lens may cause the camera lens to be scratched and unable to
transmit a clear image.

• Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or a glass coat-

ing to adhere to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off as soon as pos-
sible.

• If the temperature changes rapidly, 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 malfunc-
tioning.

Do not expose the camera to strong impact as this could cause a malfunc-
tion. If this happens, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible.
