2-4. Using other driving systems
CAUTION
■
When using the rear view monitor system, observe the following pre-
cautions to avoid an accident that could result in death or serious inju-
ries:
●
Never depend solely on the monitor system when reversing.
●
Always check visually and with the mirrors to confirm your intended path is
clear.
●
Depicted distances between objects and flat surfaces differ from actual
distances.
●
Do not use the system if the trunk is open.
■
Conditions which may affect the rear view monitor system
●
If the back of the vehicle has been hit, the camera's position and mounting
angle may have changed. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
●
Rapid temperature changes, such as when hot water is poured on the
vehicle in cold weather, may cause the system to function abnormally.
●
If the camera lens is dirty, it cannot transmit a clear image. Rinse with
water and wipe with a soft cloth. If extremely dirty, wash with a mild
cleanser and rinse.
●
The displayed image may be darker and moving images may be slightly
distorted when the system is cold.
●
As the camera has a water proof construction, do not detach, disassemble
or modify it. This may cause incorrect operation.
●
Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or glass coat to
adhere to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off as soon as possible.
●
If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on
the vehicle in cold weather, the system may not operate normally.
●
When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights, or mer-
cury lights, the lights and the illuminated areas may appear to flicker.
●
When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of water to the
camera or camera area. Doing so may result in the camera malfunction-
ing.
