REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM Rear view monitor system - The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying an image of the view behind the vehicle while backing up. The image is displayed in reverse on the screen. This allows the image to appear in the same manner as that of the rear view mirror. To display the rear view image on the screen, shift the shift lever to "R" when the "ENGINE START STOP" switch is in IGNITION ON mode. If you move the shift lever out of the "R", the screen returns to the previous screen. Operating another function of the navigation system will display another screen. Vehicles with intuitive parking assist− sensor - when the intuitive parking assist−sensors are turned on and an obstacle is detected in front of or behind your vehicle, a warning appears on the right top of the rear view monitor. For details, see "Intuitive parking assist" on page 309. The rear view monitor system is a supplement device intended to assist back up. When backing up, be sure to check behind and all around the vehicle visually. CAUTION D Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up. Always make sure your intended path is clear. 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 conditions. Depicted distances between objects and flat surfaces will differ from actual distance. 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 mirrors before proceeding. Do not use the system when the back door is not completely closed. 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 Lexus dealer. As the camera has a water proof construction, do not detach, disassemble or modify it. This may cause incorrect operation. If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on the vehicle in cold weather, the system may not operate normally. D D D D D 291
