The system may suffer inter ference or not
work correctly:
-
u
nder poor visibility conditions (snow,
heavy rain, etc.),
-
i
f the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, etc.) in front of
the camera,
-
i
f the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
-
r
oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
-
v
ehicles whose lighting is obscured
(for example: vehicles running behind a
safety barrier on a motor way),
-
v
ehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads. Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
