SPA2450-A
Automatic anti-glare type
The inside mirror is designed so that it
automatically changes reflection according to
the intensity of the headlights of the following
vehicle.
The anti-glare system will be automatically
turned on when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
When the anti-glare system is turned on, the
indicator light
*Awill illuminate and excessive
glare from the headlights of the vehicle behind
you will be reduced.
Push the “*” switch
*Bto make the inside
rearview mirror operate normally. The indicator light will turn off. Push the “I” switch
*Cto turn
the system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the
sensors
*Dor apply glass cleaner on
them. Doing so will reduce the sensitivity
of the sensor, resulting in improper opera-
tion.

Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-17
4-50Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
— When strong light such as an-other vehicle’s headlight or sun-
light is present.
— When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such as
when mirror is folded.
— When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
— When the position of the moving objects in the display is not
changed.
. The MOD system might detect flow-
ing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc.
. The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed,
direction, distance or shape of the
moving objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to
the parts where the camera is
installed, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be
altered and the MOD system may
not detect objects properly.
. When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not display objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
.
Do not use alcohol, benzine or
thinner to clean the camera. This
will cause discoloration. To clean
the camera, wipe with a cloth dam-
pened with diluted mild cleaning
agent and then wipe with a dry
cloth.
. Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected.
5-30Starting and driving
after road repairs. (The LDW and
LDP systems could detect these
items as lane markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres 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 vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
. Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and the
chime may not be heard.
5-48Starting and driving
.The radar sensors may not be able
to detect and activate BSI when
certain objects are present such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles,
low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the detec- tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop.
— Oncoming vehicles.
— A vehicle merging into an adja- cent lane at a speed approxi-
mately the same as your vehicle.
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
— A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly.
— A vehicle that passes through the detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensor’s detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When
driving in a narrow lane, the radar sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
. The radar sensors are designed to
ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This
is a normal operation condition.
. The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the BSI system may not operate
properly.
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are shar- ply contrasting objects, such as
shadows, snow, water, wheel
ruts, seams or lines remaining after road repairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane markers.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of a
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if aiming is not adjusted prop-
erly.
— When strong light enters a lane camera unit. (For example: light
directly shines on the front of
the vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example:
when the vehicle enters or exits
a tunnel or under a bridge.)
