WARNING
●The camera unit may not be able to
detect properly under the following
conditions:
– On roads where there are multiple parallel lane markers; lane markers
that are faded or not painted clearly;
yellow painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; or lane mark-
ers covered with water, dirt, snow,
etc.
– On roads where the discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
– On roads where there are sharp curves.
– On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects, such as shad-
ows, snow, water, wheel ruts, seams
or lines remaining after road repairs.
(The LDW system could detect these
items as lane markers.)
– On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
– When the vehicle’s traveling direc- tion does not align with the lane
marker. – When the road surface is very dark
due to weak ambient light or im-
paired tail lamp.
– When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
– When rain, snow, dirt or object ad- heres to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit.
– When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or if the aiming
is not adjusted properly.
– When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset) .
– When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example, when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or under
a bridge) .
