ASSIST SENSORS
Camera.1
Radar sensor (if equipped).2
If a message regarding a blocked sensor orcamera appears in the information display,something is obstructing the radar signals orcamera images. The radar sensor is behindthe fascia cover in the center of the lowergrille. With a blocked sensor or camera, thesystem may not function, or performancemay reduce. See Pre-Collision Assist –Information Messages (page 289).
Note:Proper system operation requires aclear view of the road by the camera. Haveany windshield damage in the area of thecamera's field of view repaired.
Note:If something hits the front end of yourvehicle or damage occurs and your vehiclehas a radar sensor, the radar sensing zonecould change. This could cause missed orfalse vehicle detections. Have your vehicleserviced to have the radar checked forproper coverage and operation.
Note:If your vehicle detects excessive heatat the camera or a potential misalignmentcondition, a message could display in theinformation display indicating temporarysensor unavailability. When operationalconditions are correct, the messagedeactivates. For example, when the ambienttemperature around the sensor decreasesor the sensor recalibrates successfully.
