CAUTION
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 is a supplementary system which alerts the driver that a
vehicle is present in the blind spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot Monitor. The
system 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.
Handling the radar sensor
■
One Blind Spot Monitor 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.
Do not subject the sensor or surrounding area on the bumper to a strong impact.
●
If the sensor moves even slightly off position, the system may malfunction and
vehicles that enter the detection area may not be detected. If the sensor or sur-
rounding area is subject to a strong impact, always have the area inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
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 sensor or surrounding area on the bumper.
●
2-4. Using other driving systems
Keep the sensor and its surrounding area
●
on the bumper clean at all times.
