Detection range of the sensors

Approximately 3.3 ft. (100 cm)

Approximately 4.9 ft. (150 cm)

Approximately 2.0 ft. (60 cm)

The diagram shows the detection range of
the sensors. Note that the sensors cannot
detect obstacles that are extremely close
to the vehicle.
The range of the sensors may change

depending on the shape of the object etc.

■

Multi-information display, head-up
display and Center Display

Sensors that detect an obstacle will illu-
minate continuously or blink.

NOTICE

●

If the display flashes or shows continu-

ously without beeping, except when

the mute function has been turned on.

●

If a display error occurs, first check the

sensor.

If the error occurs even when there is

no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is

likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.

■

Notes when washing the vehicle

Do not apply intensive bursts of water or

steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor mal-

functioning.

Buzzer operation and distance to
an obstacle

A buzzer sounds when the sensors are
operating.
 The buzzer beeps faster as the vehi-

cle approaches an obstacle. When
the vehicle comes within the follow-
ing distance of the obstacle, the
buzzer sounds continuously:

• Front center sensors: Approximately 1.0

ft. (30 cm)

• Corner sensors: Approximately 1.0 ft.

(30 cm)

• Rear center sensors: Approximately 1.1 ft.

(35 cm)

 When 2 or more obstacles are

detected simultaneously, the buzzer
system responds to the nearest
obstacle. If one or both come within
the above distances, the beep will
repeat a long tone, followed by fast
beeps.

BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)

The Blind Spot Monitor uses the
sensors installed behind the rear
bumper. The system is intended to
assist the driver check areas that
are not easily visible. The system
has the following 2 functions:
 The BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)

function

Assists the driver in making a deci-
sion when changing lanes
 The RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic

Alert) function

Assists the driver when backing up
These functions use same sensors.

WARNING

■

Handling the radar sensor

Blind Spot Monitor sensors are installed

behind the left and right sides of the rear

bumper respectively. Observe the fol-

lowing to ensure the Blind Spot Monitor

can function correctly.

●

Keep the sensors and the surrounding

areas on the rear bumper clean at all

times.

If a sensor or its surrounding area on

the rear bumper is dirty or covered

with snow, the Blind Spot Monitor may

not operate and a warning message

(

P.221) will be displayed. In this situ-

ation, clear off the dirt or snow and

drive the vehicle with the operation

conditions of the BSM function

(

P.224) satisfied for approximately

10 minutes. If the warning message

does not disappear, have the vehicle

inspected by your Lexus dealer.

Operation of the BSM function

The BSM function uses radar sensors to detect the following vehicles traveling in
adjacent lanes and advises the driver of the presence of such vehicles via the indi-
cators on the outside rear view mirrors.

Vehicles that are traveling in areas that are not visible using the outside rear
view mirrors (the blind spots)

WARNING

●

Do not subject a sensor or its sur-

rounding area on the rear bumper to a

strong impact.

If a sensor is moved even slightly off

position, the system may malfunction

and vehicles may not be detected cor-

rectly.

In the following situations, have your

vehicle inspected by your Lexus

dealer.

• A sensor or its surrounding area is

subject to a strong impact.

• If the surrounding area of a sensor is

scratched or dented, or part of them

has become disconnected.

●

Do not disassemble the sensor.

●

Do not attach stickers to the sensor or

surrounding area on the rear bumper.

●

Do not modify the sensor or surround-

ing area on the rear bumper.

●

Do not paint the rear bumper any

color other than an official Lexus color.

■

BSM function detection areas

The areas that vehicles can be detected in are outlined below.

The range of each detection area is:

Approximately 1.6 ft. (0.5 m) to 11.5 ft. (3.5 m) from either side of the vehicle

Approximately 3.3 ft. (1 m) forward of the rear bumper

Approximately 9.8 ft. (3 m) from the rear bumper

Approximately 9.8 ft. (3 m) to 197 ft. (60 m) from the rear bumper

: The area between the side of the vehicle and 1.6 ft. (0.5 m) from the side of the vehicle

cannot be detected.

: The greater the difference in speed between your vehicle and the detected vehicle is,

the farther away the vehicle will be detected, causing the outside rear view mirror indi-
cator to illuminate or flash.

■

The BSM function is operational when

The BSM function is operational when all of

the following conditions are met:

●

The BSM function is on.

than R.

●

The vehicle speed is greater than approx-

imately 10 mph (16 km/h).

■

ent in the detection area in the following sit-

uations:

●

your vehicle.

●

You overtake a vehicle in adjacent lane

slowly.

●

Another vehicle enters the detection

area when it changes lanes.

■

Conditions under which the BSM func-

tion will not detect a vehicle

The BSM function is not designed to detect

the following types of vehicles and/or

objects:

●

Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians,
etc.

●

●

Vehicles which are being overtaken rap-
idly by your vehicle.

: Depending on the conditions, detection

of a vehicle and/or object may occur.

■

Conditions under which the BSM func-

tion may not function correctly

●

The BSM function may not detect vehi-

cles correctly in the following situations:

• When the sensor is misaligned due to a

strong impact to the sensor or its sur-

rounding area

• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is

covering the sensor or surrounding area

on the rear bumper

• When driving on a road surface that is

wet with standing water during bad

weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog

• When multiple vehicles are approaching

with only a small gap between each vehi-

cle

• When the distance between your vehicle

and a following vehicle is short

• When there is a significant difference in

speed between your vehicle and the vehi-

cle that enters the detection area

• When the difference in speed between

your vehicle and another vehicle is

changing

• When a vehicle enters a detection area

traveling at about the same speed as your

vehicle

• As your vehicle starts from a stop, a vehi-

cle remains in the detection area

• When driving up and down consecutive

steep inclines, such as hills, dips in the

road, etc.

• When driving on roads with sharp bends,

consecutive curves, or uneven surfaces

• When vehicle lanes are wide, or when

driving on the edge of a lane, and the

vehicle in an adjacent lane is far away

from your vehicle

• When an accessory (such as a bicycle

carrier) or towing eyelet is installed to the

rear of the vehicle

• When there is a significant difference in

height between your vehicle and the

vehicle that enters the detection area

• Immediately after the BSM function is

turned on

●

Instances of the BSM function unneces-

sarily detecting a vehicle and/or object

may increase in the following situations:

• When the sensor is misaligned due to a

strong impact to the sensor or its sur-

rounding area

• When the distance between your vehicle

and a guardrail, wall, etc. that enters the

detection area is short

• When driving up and down consecutive

steep inclines, such as hills, dips in the

road, etc.

• When vehicle lanes are narrow, or when

driving on the edge of a lane, and a vehi-

cle traveling in a lane other than the adja-

cent lanes enters the detection area

• When driving on roads with sharp bends,

consecutive curves, or uneven surfaces

• When the tires are slipping or spinning

• When the distance between your vehicle

and a following vehicle is short

• When an accessory (such as a bicycle

carrier) or towing eyelet is installed to the

rear of the vehicle

WARNING

■

Cautions regarding the use of the

function

The driver is solely responsible for safe

driving. Always drive safely, taking care

to observe your surroundings.
The BSM function is a supplementary

function which alerts the driver that a

vehicle is in a blind spot of the outside

rear view mirrors or is approaching rap-

idly from behind into a blind spot. Do not

overly rely on the BSM function. As the

function cannot judge if it is safe to

change lanes, over reliance could lead to

an accident resulting in death or serious

injury.
As the system may not function correctly

under certain conditions, the driver’s own

visual confirmation of safety is necessary.

Operation of the RCTA function

The RCTA function uses radar sensors to detect vehicles approaching from the
right or left at the rear of the vehicle and alerts the driver of the presence of such
vehicles by flashing the outside rear view mirror indicators and sounding a buzzer.
