NOTICE
●Under the conditions listed
below, it will become more diffi-
cult for the system to detect the
vehicle in front, motorcycles,
bicycles, pedestrians and obsta-
cles on the road, and lane mark-
ers. Also, EyeSight may
temporarily stop operating.
However, the temporary stop
will be canceled once these
conditions have improved and
the vehicle is driven for a short
period of time.
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick
fog). In particular, the system is
more likely to temporarily stop
operating when there is an oil
film adhering to the windshield,
a glass coating has been
applied, or poorly performing
wipers are used.
• Strong light is coming from the front (sunlight or headlight
beams of oncoming traffic, etc.).
• The windshield washer is in use.
• Raindrops, water drops, or dirt on the windshield are not wiped
off sufficiently.
• The windshield has become fogged, scratched or smeared,
or snow, dirt ,dust or frost has
adhered to it, or it is otherwise
affected. These will reduce the
stereo camera’s field of view.
Also, light is reflecting off the
dirt, etc.
• The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded
cargo or other factors.
• Visibility is poo r due to sand,
smoke or water vapor blowing in
the wind, or the front vision is
obscured due to water
splashes, snow, dirt or dust stir
up generated by the vehicle in
front or oncoming traffic.
• The stereo came ra’s field of
view is obstructed.
• Through the entra nce or exit of
a tunnel
• The rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular
(for example a low bed trailer,
etc.).
• The obstacle is a fence, a wall or a shutter, etc. with a uniform
pattern (a striped pattern, brick,
etc.) or with no pattern in front.
• The obstacle is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in
front.
• Driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a ve hicle in front
that does not ha ve its taillights
on
• Driving through a banner or flag, low branches on a tree or
thick/tall vegetation
• On steep uphill or downhill grades
• The stereo camera is obstructed by a hand, etc. (If
even one of the lenses is
obstructed, the system does not
operate properly.)
• It is completel y dark and no
objects are detected.
• The area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when
completely covered in snow,
etc.).

WARNING
●Visibility is poor due to sand,
smoke or water vapor blowing in
the wind, or the front vision is
obscured due to water
splashes, snow, dirt, water
spray from road sprinklers or
snow clearing sprinklers on the
road, or dust stir up generated
by the vehicle in front or oncom-
ing traffic.
• Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or water or other
substances may be incorrectly
detected instead, making cor-
rect control impossible.
●In adverse weather, such as
heavy snow or snowstorms
●The windshield has become
fogged, scratched or smeared,
or snow, dirt, dust or frost has
adhered to it, or it is otherwise
affected. These will reduce the
stereo camera’s field of view.
Also, light is reflecting off the
dirt, etc.
●Water droplets from rain or the
window washer, or dirt has not
been fully wiped off the wind-
shield.
• It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making cor-
rect control impossible.
●The stereo camer a’s field of
view is obstructed.
The stereo camera may have diffi-
culty detecting the following
objects or conditions. Operate the
brake pedal and take other
actions as necessary.
●Vehicles at significantly different
speeds (vehicles driving slowly,
stopped or oncoming vehicles,
etc.)
●Vehicles cutting into your lane
●Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans and animals, etc.
●Light is poor in the evening or
early morning.
●At night or in a tunnel without
the headlights on
●At night or in a tunnel when
there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its tail lights on
●Strong light is coming from the
front (sunlight or headlight high
beams, etc.).
