4-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
■ Handling the radar sensor
One Blind Spot Monitor sensor is installed inside the left and right side of
the vehicle rear bumper respectively. Observe the following to ensure the
Blind Spot Monitor can function correctly.
●Keep the sensor and its surrounding
area on the bumper clean at all times.
If a sensor or its surrounding area on
the rear bumper is dirty or covered
with snow, the Blind Spot Monitor may
not operate and a warning message
(P. 337) will be displayed.
In this situation, clear off the dirt or
snow and drive the vehicle with the
operation conditions of the BSM func-
tion
(P. 343) satisfied for approxi-
mately 10 minutes.
If the warning message does not disappear, have the vehicle inspected
by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
●Do not subject a sensor or its surrounding area on the rear bumper to a
strong impact.
If a sensor is moved even slightly off position, the system may malfunction
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 or stickers to the sensor or surrounding area on
the bumper.
●Do not modify the sensor or surrounding area on the bumper.
●Do not paint the rear bumper any color other than an official Toyota color.

BSM function
The BSM function uses radar sensors to detect the following vehicles
traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of the presence of
such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear view mirrors.
1
Vehicles that are traveling in areas that are not visible using the out-
side rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
4
2
Vehicles that are approaching rapidly from behind in areas that are
not visible using the outside rear view mirrors (the blind spots)

BSM function detection areas
The areas that vehicles can be detected in are outlined below.
The range of each detection area is:
1
Approximately 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) to 3.5 m (11.5 ft.) from either side of
the vehicle*
*: The area between the side of the vehicle and 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) from the side
of the vehicle cannot be detected.
2
Approximately 1 m (3.3 ft.) forward of the rear bumper
3
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) from the rear bumper
4
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) to 60 m (197 ft.) from the rear bumper*
*: The greater the difference in speed between your vehicle and the detected
vehicle is, the farther away the vehicle will be detected, causing the out-
side rear view mirror indicator to illuminate or flash.

WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of the system
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor function is a supplementary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is present in the blind spot. Do not overly rely on the
Blind Spot Monitor function. The function cannot judge if it is safe to change
lanes, therefore over reliance could cause an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
According to conditions, the system may not function correctly. Therefore
the driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
■ The BSM function is operational when
The BSM function is operational when all of the following conditions are met:
●The BSM system is set to on (P. 132)
4
● The shift lever is in a position other than R.
● Vehicle speed is greater than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph)
■ The BSM function will detect a vehicle when
The BSM function will detect a vehicle present in the detection area in the fol-
lowing situations:
● A vehicle in an adjacent lane overtakes your vehicle.
● Another vehicle enters the detection area when it changes lanes.
■ Conditions under which the BSM function will not detect a vehicle
The BSM function is not designed to detect the following types of vehicles
and/or objects:
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.*
● Vehicles traveling in the opposite direction
● Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehicles and similar stationary objects*
●Following vehicles that are in the same lane*
● Vehicles traveling 2 lanes away from your vehicle*
*: Depending on conditions, detection of a vehicle and/or object may occur.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
■ Conditions under which the BSM function may not function correctly
● The BSM function may not detect vehicles correctly in the following situa-
tions:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc., is covering the sensor or surround-
ing area on the rear bumper
• When driving on a road surface that is wet with standing water during bad
weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
• When multiple vehicles are approaching with only a small gap between
each vehicle
• When the distance between your vehicle and a following vehicle is short
• When there is a significant difference in speed between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection area
• When the difference in speed between your vehicle and another vehicle
is changing
• When a vehicle enters a detection area traveling at about the same
speed as your vehicle
• As your vehicle starts from a stop, a vehicle remains in the detection area
• When driving up and down consecutive steep inclines, such as hills, dips
in the road, etc.
• When driving on roads with sharp bends, consecutive curves, or uneven
surfaces
• When vehicle lanes are wide, or when driving on the edge of a lane, and
the vehicle in an adjacent lane is far away from your vehicle
• When a bicycle carrier or other accessory is installed to the rear of the
vehicle
• When there is a significant difference in height between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection area
• Immediately after the BSM system is set to on

●Instances of the BSM function unnecessarily detecting a vehicle and/or
object may increase in the following situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its
surrounding area
• When the distance between your vehicle and a guardrail, wall, etc., that
enters the detection area is short
• When driving up and down consecutive steep inclines, such as hills, dips
in the road, etc.
• When vehicle lanes are narrow, or 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 tires are slipping or spinning
• When the distance between your vehicle and a following vehicle is short
• When a bicycle carrier or other accessory is installed to the rear of the
vehicle

RCTA function
The RCTA functions when your vehicle is in reverse. It can detect
other vehicles approaching from the right or left rear of the vehicle. It
uses radar sensors to alert the driver of the other vehicle’s existence
through flashing the outside rear view mirror indicators and sounding
a buzzer.

WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of the function
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The RCTA function is only a supplementary 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.
