SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

2009 Toyota Tundra

2009 ACCESSORIES AND EQUIPMENT Parking Assist/Monitoring - Tundra

1. GENERAL

a. To assist the driver with parking the vehicle by displaying an image of the area behind the vehicle,

this system has a television camera mounted on the tail gate. The system displays the image on the
navigation receiver assembly.

b. This system consists of the following components:

1. Navigation receiver assembly

2. Television camera assembly

3. Park / Neutral position switch

c. This system is equipped with a self-diagnosis system, which is operated on a dedicated window that

appears on the display panel, just as in the navigation system.

2. FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS

a. The navigation receiver assembly controls the system by using information from the following

components:

COMPONENTS FUNCTION CHART

3. OPERATION EXPLANATION

a. The navigation receiver assembly receives the R position signal from the park / neutral position

switch when the shift lever is moved to the R position. After receiving the R position signal, the
navigation receiver assembly switches from the navigation system to the rear view monitor system.

4. NOTES FOR REAR VIEW MONITOR

a. Notes for the rear view monitor.

1. The rear view monitor may not function properly if subjected to a severe blow by any hard

object.

2. Do not "scrub" the cover part of the camera (resin made). Scrubbing it may scratch the cover

and affect the image. Prevent organic solvents, waxes, bond removing solvents, or glass
coating from adhering to the cover. Clean it off immediately, and wash with water.

3. Exposing the camera to a sudden temperature change may affect proper functioning of the

camera.

4. A clear image may not appear if the camera is dirty with snow, mud, etc. In that case, wash it

with water and wipe off the lens. Use a detergent to remove dirt if necessary.

b. Images are difficult to discern even in normal conditions if:

1. Camera lens is frosted over (the image immediately after turning the ignition switch ON may

be blurred or darker than normal).

2. A strong beam of light, such as a sunbeam or headlight, hits the camera.

HINT:

When a strong light, such as a sunbeam reflected off the vehicle's body, hits the camera, the
image may be blurred. This is called the "SMEAR" phenomenon, peculiar to the CCD
camera.

3. It is too dark around the camera (at night, etc.).

4. The ambient temperature around the camera is either too high or too low.
