BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver in
confirming safety when
changing lanes.
WARNING
■
Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary 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 Blind Spot
Monitor. As the function cannot
judge if it is safe to change lanes,
over reliance could lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.

Cautions regarding the use of
the system
There is a limit to the degree of
recognition accuracy and control
performance that this system can
provide, do not overly rely on this
system. The driver is always
responsible for paying attention to
the vehicle’ surroundings and
driving safely.
■
To ensure the system can
operate properly
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failing to do so may result in the
vehicle being unable to be driven
safely and possibly cause an acci-
dent.
●
Do not damage the sensors,
and always keep them clean.
●
Do not attach a sticker or install
an electronic component, such
as a backlit license plate (espe-
cially fluorescent type), fog
lights, fender pole or wireless
antenna near a radar sensor.
●
Do not subject the surrounding
area of the sensor to a strong
impact. If subjected to an
impact, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer. If the front or rear
bumper needs to be
emoved/installed or replaced,
contact your Toyota dealer.
●
Do not modify, disassemble or
paint the sensors.
●
Do not attach a license plate
cover.
●
Keep your tires properly
inflated.
■
When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable
the function as it may operate
even though there is no possibility
of a collision.
●
Failing to observe the warnings
above.
●
A non-genuine Toyota suspen-
sion (lowered suspension, etc.)
is installed.
■
Notes when washing the vehi-
cle
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 malfunction.
●
When using steam to clean the

■
Sensor detection information
●
The following situations may occur
during use.
• The sensor's detection areas are
limited to the areas around the
vehicle front and rear bumpers.
• Depending on the shape of the
object and other factors, the
detection distance may shorten, or
detection may be impossible.
• If an object is extremely close to a
sensor, it may not be detected.
• There will be a short delay
between object detection and dis-
play. Even at low speeds, there is
a possibility that the object will
come within the sensor’s detec-
tion areas before the display is
shown and the warning beep
sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the
buzzer due to the volume of the
audio system or air flow noise of
the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the
buzzer if buzzers for other sys-
tems are sounding.
■
Objects which the system may
not be properly detected
The shape of the object may pre-
vent the sensor from detecting it.
Pay particular attention to the follow-
ing objects:
●
Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●
Cotton, snow and other materials
that absorb sound waves
●
Sharply-angled objects
●
Low objects
●
Tall objects with upper sections
projecting outwards in the direc-
tion of your vehicle
People may not be detected if they
are wearing certain types of cloth-
ing.
■
Situations in which the system
may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the
surrounding environment may affect
the ability of a sensor to correctly
detect objects. Particular instances
where this may occur are listed
below.
●
There is dirt, snow, water drops or
ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the
sensors will resolve this problem.)
●
A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the
area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a
sensor is frozen the sensor dis-
play may be displayed abnormally,
or objects, such as a wall, may not
be detected.
●
When a sensor or the area around
a sensor is extremely hot or cold.

Buzzer operation and dis-
tance to an object
A buzzer sounds when the sen-
sors are operating.
The buzzer beeps faster as
the vehicle approaches an
object. When the vehicle
comes within approximately
1.0 ft. (30 cm) of the object,
the buzzer sounds continu-
ously.
When 2 or more objects are
detected simultaneously, the
buzzer sounds for the nearest
object. If one or more objects
come within approximately
1.0 ft. (30 cm) of the vehicle,
the buzzer will repeat a long
tone, followed by fast beeps.
Automatic buzzer mute func-
tion: After a buzzer begins
sounding, if the distance
between the vehicle and the
detected object does not
become shorter, the buzzer
will be muted automatically.
(However, if the distance
between the vehicle and
object is 1.0 ft. (30 cm) or
less, this function will not
operate.)
The buzzer sounds volume can
be adjusted. (
