'03 4Runner_U (L/O 0208) Rear view monitor system CAUTION The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying images of the rear of the vehicle during backing up. The displayed image on the screen is a horizontally reversed mirror image of the inside rear view mirror. To display the rear view on the screen, place the selector lever in the "R" position when the ignition switch in the "ON" position. If you move the selector lever out of the "R" position, the screen returns to the previous screen. Operating another function of the navigation system will display another screen. The rear view monitor system is an auxiliary device intended to back up. When backing up, be sure to check behind and all around the vehicle visually. D Never back up while looking only at the screen. The image on the screen may differ from actual conditions. If you back up while looking only at the screen, you may hit a vehicle or have an unexpected accident. When backing up, be sure to check behind and all around the vehicle visually and with mirrors before proceeding. D When doing the circling calibration, be sure to secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the neighborhood. Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration. D Do not adjust the display while the vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle is stopped. NOTICE z Do not use the system when the back door is not completely closed. z If the back of the vehicle is hit, the position and mounting angle of the camera may slip. Be sure to have the camera's position and mounting angle checked at your Toyota dealer. z If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on it in cold weather, the system may not operate normally. CAUTION D Do not rely entirely on the rear view monitor system. Use caution just as you would when backing up any vehicle. 208 2003 4RUNNER from Aug. '02 Prod. (OM35795U)
