INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • 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, front camera system, lane tracing assist system, road sign assist system, pre-collision system or automatic high beam system may not operate properly due to a difference in the transmissivity or black ceramic border.
  • Make sure to use Toyota Genuine Windshield Glass Adhesive (High Modulus Type) or an equivalent high modulus adhesive.
