NOTE

If warnings are given too frequently, the

warning distance can be reduced (see

page 175). This causes the system to pro-

vide later warnings, which decreases the

total number of warnings provided.

The camera’s limitations

The camera is used by Collision Warning with

Auto-brake, Driver Alert Control (see

page 180), and Lane Departure Warning (see

page 183).

NOTE

•

To help protect the camera in very hot

conditions, it may be temporarily

switched off for approximately 15

minutes after the engine has been

started.

•

Keep the section of the windshield in

front of the camera clean and free of ice,

snow, or condensation.

WARNING

•

The camera has the same limitations as

the human eye. In other words, its

“vision is impaired” by adverse weather

conditions such as heavy snowfall,

dense fog, etc. These conditions may

reduce the function of systems that

depend on the camera or cause these

systems to temporarily stop function-

ing.

•

Never place any objects, decals, etc.,

on the windshield in front of the camera.

This could reduce or block the camera’s

function, and could cause one or more

of the systems that utilize the camera to

stop functioning.

•

Strong sunlight, reflections from the

road surface, ice or snow covering the

road, a dirty road surface, or unclear

lane marker lines may drastically reduce

the camera’s capacity to detect the side

of a lane or another vehicle.

Fault tracing and actions

If the message Windscreen Sensors

blocked

is displayed, this means that the cam-

era is obscured and cannot detect vehicles or

road marker lines in front of the vehicle.

This, in turn, means that Collision Warning with

Auto-brake, Lane Departure Warning, and

Driver Alert Control will not have full function-

ality.

The table lists possible causes for this mes-

sage being displayed, and suitable actions.
