Important limits

  • Never adjust the mirror or display while driving. Digital perspective can make vehicles and objects appear a different size than in the optical mirror.
  • Brightness set too high can cause eye strain; switch to optical mode if focusing is difficult or the image flickers at night.
  • The digital image is not a substitute for mirrors, direct observation or a safe backing check.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓For glare or a poor image, close an equipped roof shade, clean the rear camera/window area and switch temporarily to optical mode.
  • ✓If the back door is open or not fully latched, close it; the digital image may otherwise be misaligned or unusable.
  • ✓If a malfunction/temperature icon appears, change to optical mode. Let an overheated mirror cool; if the warning remains, have Toyota inspect it.
