8-1. Lexus parking assist monitor
Cleaning the camera
If dirt or foreign matter, such as water droplets, snow, or mud, has stuck to the
camera, you will not be able to see the image clearly. If that happens, splash the
camera with a large amount of water and then wipe the camera lens clean with a
soft, damp cloth.
NOTICE
● The Lexus parking assist monitor may stop functioning correctly. Take note of the
following items:
Do not hit or apply a forceful impact on the camera. Doing so may change the
•
position and mounting angle of the camera.
The camera is designed to be waterproof. Do not detach, disassemble, or modify it.
•
When washing the camera lens, splash the camera with a large amount of water
•
and then wipe the camera lens clean with a soft, damp cloth. Rubbing the camera
lens forcibly may scratch the camera lens and images may no longer be able to be
seen clearly.
• The camera cover is made of resin. Do not allow an organic solvent, car wax,
window cleaner, or glass coating to adhere to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off
immediately.
Do not pour hot water on the vehicle in cold weather or apply other rapid changes
•
of temperature.
If you wash the vehicle with a high pressure car washer, do not point the hose
•
directly at the camera or camera area. Applying strong water pressure may result in
the camera malfunctioning.
● If the camera is hit, it may cause a camera malfunction. If this happens, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer as soon as possible.
■ Cleaning the rear camera with washer fluid
Dirt on the rear camera lens can be cleaned by operating the dedicated camera
cleaning washer. For details, refer to separate "OWNER'S MANUAL".
When cleaning the camera, it may be difficult to see the image due to the
●
washer fluid. When backing up, be sure to visually check all around the vehicle
both directly and using the mirrors before proceeding.
If washer fluid remains on the camera lens surface after cleaning, the image may
●
be difficult to see at night due to the height or inclination of the headlights of the
vehicle behind.
