2-4. Using other driving systems
CAUTION
While driving
■
This system should be used as a supplemental aid to help you see objects. Never
●
depend on this system only. Be sure to view objects with your own eyes.
This system is designed to help you see objects better when driving in a flat area
●
with few curves in darkness. Use of this function in an area with many curves or
slopes or in a well-lit area could cause an accident.
Conditions which may affect the Lexus night view system
■
If the front bumper is deformed in a collision, etc., the performance of the near-
●
infrared floodlight will be affected. Have it repaired or replaced by your Lexus
dealer.
If you notice the inner lens of the near-infrared camera is dirty, have it inspected
●
by your Lexus dealer.
If the top of the windshield fogs up, the lens of the near-infrared camera will also
●
fog up, resulting in deterioration of the system performance. Defog the wind-
shield by pushing the windshield air flow button on the air conditioning.
If the outside temperature is low, the head-up display may darken or it may take
●
time to display the image with the system on.
The automatic light control sensor may not function properly if an object is placed
●
on the sensor, or anything that blocks the sensor is affixed to the windshield.
To avoid injury
■
The near-infrared floodlight irradiates strong energy nut visible to the eyes. Do not
stare at the floodlight at close range for a long time.
