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.

WARNING

To ensure the system can

operate properly

Blind Spot Monitor sensors are

installed behind the left and right

sides of the rear bumper respec-

tively. Observe the following to

ensure the Blind Spot Monitor can

operate correctly.

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.225) will

be displayed. In this situation,
clear off the dirt or snow and drive

Vehicles that can be detected by the Blind Spot Monitor

The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect the fol-
lowing vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of
the presence of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear
view mirrors.

WARNING

Do not attach accessories,

stickers (including transparent

stickers), aluminum tape, etc. to

a sensor or its surrounding area

on the rear bumper.

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 your

Toyota dealer.

• A sensor or its surrounding area

is subject to a strong impact.

• If the surrounding area of a sen-

sor is scratched or dented, or

part of them has become dis-

connected.

Do not disassemble the sensor.

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 your Toyota

dealer.

Do not paint the rear bumper

any color other than an official

Toyota color.

The area displayed on the
screen may vary according to
vehicle orientation conditions.

Objects which are close to
either corner of the bumper or

displayed.

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 moni-
tor.

Rear view monitor system
camera

The camera for the rear view
monitor system is located as

shown in the illustration.

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 visu-
ally.
The distances between the vehi-
cle 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 sit-
uations, there is a margin of
error between the fixed guide
lines on the screen and the
actual distance/course on the
road.

When the ground behind the
vehicle slopes up sharply

239

ing

The distance guide lines will appear
to be closer to the vehicle 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.

When the ground behind the
vehicle slopes down sharply

The distance guide lines will appear
to be further from the vehicle than
the actual distance. 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

A margin of error

When any part of the vehicle sags
due to the number of passengers 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 dis-
played according to flat surfaced
objects (such as the road). It is
not possible to determine the
position of three-dimensional
objects (such as vehicles) using
the distance guide lines. When
approaching a three-dimen-
sional object that extends out-
ward (such as the flatbed of a
truck), be careful of the follow-
ing.
