Rear view monitor system

Clock

The rear view monitor system assists

the driver by displaying an image of

the rear of the vehicle while backing

up. The displayed image on the screen

is a horizontally reversed mirror image

of the inside rear view mirror.

CAUTION

ꢀ Never depend on the rear view

monitor system entirely when back-

ing up. Always make sure your in-

tended path is clear.

28p009d

To display the rear view image on the

screen, place the selector lever in the

“R” position when the “IG−ON” mode is

enabled.

Use caution just as you would when

backing up any vehicle.

ꢀ Never back up while looking only at

the screen. The image on the

screen is different from actual con-

ditions. Depicted distances between

objects and flat surfaces will differ

from actual distances. If you back

up while looking only at the screen,

you may hit a vehicle, a person or

an object. When backing up, be

sure to check behind and all around

the vehicle visually and with mir-

rors before proceeding.

If you move the selector lever out of the

“R” position, the screen returns to the

previous screen. Operating another func-

tion of the navigation system will display

another screen.

The digital clock indicates the time.

The hybrid system must be in “ACC” or

“IG−ON”.

The rear view monitor system is a supple-

ment device intended to assist back up.

When backing up, be sure to check be-

hind and all around the vehicle visually.

To set the hour: Push the “H” button.

To set the minutes: Push the “M” button.

If the electrical power source has been

disconnected from the clock, the time dis-

play will automatically be set to 1:00.

ꢀ Do not use the system when the

back door is not completely closed.

When the instrument panel lights are

turned on, the brightness of the time indi-

cator will be reduced.

302

When replacing the tires, please consult

your Toyota dealer. If you replace the

tires, the area displayed on the screen

may change.

ꢀ If the back of the vehicle is hit, the

position and mounting angle of the

camera may change. Be sure to

have the camera’s position and

mounting angle checked at your

Toyota dealer.

ꢀ If the temperature changes rapidly,

such as when hot water is poured

on the vehicle in cold weather, the

system may not operate normally.

lens is extremely dirty, wash it with

a mild cleanser and rinse.

On screen

ꢀ Use your own eyes to confirm the

vehicle’s surroundings, as the dis-

played image may become faint or

dark, and moving images will be

distorted, or not entirely visible

when the outside temperature is

low. When backing up, be sure to

check behind and all around the ve-

hicle visually and with mirror before

proceeding.

Check surroundings for safety.

THE REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM

CAMERA

The rear view monitor system camera is

located on the back door as shown in the

illustration. The camera uses

a

special

lens. The distance of the image that ap-

pears on the screen differs from the actu-

al distance.

In the following cases, it may become

difficult to see the images on the screen,

even when the system is functioning.

To replace the luggage cover, adjust the

cover so that “TOP” is facing upwards.

After removing the luggage cover, stow it

in the luggage storage box or place it

somewhere other than the passenger

compartment. This will prevent passengers

from being injured in the event of a sud-

den stop or accident.
