RCD (Rear Camera Detection)^{* *}If equipped When the vehicle is backing up, the rear camera detection function can detect pedestrians in the detection area behind the vehicle. If a pedestrian is detected, a buzzer will sound and an icon will be displayed on the multimedia display to inform the driver of the pedestrian. Warning: Cautions regarding the use of the system The recognition and control capabilities for this system are limited. The driver should always drive safely by always being responsible without over relying on the system and have a understanding of the surrounding situations. To ensure the system can operate properly Observe the following, otherwise there is the danger that could lead to an accident. Always clean the camera without damaging it. Do not install market electronic parts (such as Illuminated license plate, fog lamps, etc.) in the camera vicinity. Do not subject the camera vicinity to strong impacts. If the vicinity is subjected to a strong impact, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer. Do not disassemble, remodel or paint the camera. Do not attach accessories or stickers to the camera. Do not install market protection parts (bumper trim, etc.) to the rear bumper. Maintain suitable tire air pressure. Make sure the tailgate is completely closed. RCD function is turned off In the following situations the system turns off. The RCD function may not operate properly and thus there is the danger that an accident may occur. The contents mentioned above are not observed. Suspensions other than the genuine parts are installed. When towing a trailerWhen Auto Trailer Detection (ATD) (Auto Trailer Detection (ATD)) is activated, the function automatically turns off.

When a pedestrian is detected If a pedestrian is in the area behind the vehicle or if the rear camera detected that a pedestrian is approaching the vehicle from behind, the system urges caution from the driver by sounding the buzzer and displaying the detection of a pedestrian on the multimedia display as follows: If a pedestrian is detected in area Buzzer: Sounds repeatedlyPedestrian detection icon: Blinks If a pedestrian is detected in area Buzzer (When the vehicle is stationary): Sounds 3 timesBuzzer (When the vehicle is backing up, when a pedestrian approaches the rear of the vehicle): Sounds repeatedlyPedestrian detection icon: Blinks If the system determines that your vehicle may collide with a pedestrian in area Buzzer: Sounds repeatedlyPedestrian detection icon: Blinks Note: When towing a trailer When Auto Trailer Detection (ATD) (Auto Trailer Detection (ATD)) is activated, the function automatically turns off. When the shift position is in R, the intuitive parking assist OFF indicator (Indicators) turns ON and a message is displayed in the multi-information display. The rear camera detection function is operational when The engine switch is in ON. RCD function is on. The shift position is in R. Setting the buzzer volume The buzzer volume of the intuitive parking assist, RCTA, and RCD can all be changed at once from the customize settings. (Customizable features) Muting a buzzer temporarily When an object is detected, the temporary mute switch is displayed on the multimedia display system. Select the switch to mute a buzzer of the intuitive parking assist, RCTA, and RCD all together. Mute will be canceled automatically in the following situations: When the shift position is changed. When the vehicle speed exceeds a certain speed. When there is a malfunction in a sensor or the system is temporarily unavailable. When the operating function is disabled manually. When the engine switch is turned off. Situations in which the system may not operate properly Some pedestrians, such as the following, may not be detected by the rear camera detection function, preventing the function from operating properly: Pedestrians who are bending forward or squatting Pedestrians who are lying down Pedestrians who are running Pedestrians who suddenly appear from the shadow of the vehicle or a building Pedestrians who are riding moving objects such as a bicycle or skateboard Pedestrians wearing oversized clothing such as a rain coat, long skirt, etc., making their silhouette obscure Pedestrians whose body is partially hidden by an object, such as a cart or umbrella Pedestrians which are obscured by darkness, such as at night In some situations, such as the following, pedestrians may not be detected by the rear camera detection function, preventing the function from operating properly: When backing up in inclement weather (rain, snow, fog, etc.) The lens is dirty (by dirt or snow-melting agent, etc.) or scratched When a very bright light, such as the sun, or the headlights of another vehicle, shines directly into the rear camera When backing up in a place where the surrounding brightness changes suddenly, such as at the entrance or exit of a garage or underground parking lot When backing up in a dim environment such as during dusk or in an underground parking lot When the camera position and direction are deviated When a towing hook is attached When water droplets are flowing on the camera lens When the vehicle height is extremely changed (nose up, nose down, etc.) When tire chains or an emergency tire puncture repair kit are used When the suspension has been lowered or tires that have a different size than the genuine tires are installed When an aftermarket electronic part (backlit license plate, fog light, etc.) is installed near the rear camera If a bumper protector, such as an additional trim strip, is installed to the rear bumper When towing with the vehicle Situations in which the system may operate unexpectedly Even though there are no pedestrians in the detection area, some objects, such as the following, may be detected, possibly causing the rear camera detection function to operate. Three dimensional objects, such as a pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked vehicle Moving objects, such as a car or motorcycle Objects moving toward your vehicle when backing up, such as flags or puddles (or airborne matter, such as smoke, steam, rain, or snow) Cobblestone or gravel roads, tram rails, road repairs, white lines, pedestrian crossings or fallen leaves on the road Metal covers (gratings), such as those used for drainage ditches Objects reflected in a puddle or on a wet road surface Shadows on the road In some situations, such as the following, the rear camera detection function may operate even though there are no pedestrians in the detection area. When backing up toward the roadside or a bump on the road When backing up toward an incline/decline When the vehicle height is extremely changed (nose up, nose down, etc.) When an aftermarket electronic part (backlit license plate, fog light, etc.) is installed near the rear camera If a bumper protector, such as an additional trim strip, is installed to the rear bumper If the orientation of the rear camera has been changed due to a collision or other impact, or removal and installation If a towing eyelet is installed to the rear of the vehicle When water is flowing over the rear camera lens The lens is dirty (by dirt or snow-melting agent, etc.) If there is a flashing light in the detection area, such as the emergency flashers of another vehicle When a tire chains or an emergency tire puncture repair kit are used When towing with the vehicle Situations in which the rear camera detection function may be difficult to notice The buzzer may be difficult to hear if the surrounding area is noisy or the audio system volume is high. If the temperature in the cabin is extremely high or low, the audio system screen may not operate correctly.
