FRONT CAMERA REMOVAL

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • When replacing the forward recognition camera, replace it with a new one.

  • Do not touch the camera lens or the front windshield glass in front of the camera.

  • If the forward recognition camera has been struck or dropped, replace it with a new one.

  • When replacing the windshield glass of a vehicle equipped with a forward recognition camera, make sure to use a Lexus genuine part. If a non-Lexus genuine part is used, the forward recognition camera may not be able to be installed due to a missing bracket. Also, the dynamic radar cruise control system, lane departure alert system, pre-collision system, forward recognition camera system or automatic high beam system may not operate properly due to a difference in the transmissivity or black ceramic border.
