Traffic Sign Recognition - Jeep COMPASS Owner's Handbook Manual

IMPORTANT
85) Projecting loads on the roof of the car
may interfere with the correct operation of
the camera. Before starting make sure the
load is correctly positioned, in order not
to cover the camera operating range.
86) If the windscreen glass must be
replaced due to scratches, chipping or
breakage, contact exclusively a Jeep
Dealership. Do not replace the windscreen
on your own, risk of malfunction! It is
advisable to replace the windscreen if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.
87) Do not tamper with nor operate on the
camera. Do not close the openings in the
aesthetic cover located under the interior
rear view mirror. In the event of a failure
of the camera, contact a Jeep Dealership.
88) Do not cover the operating range of
the camera with stickers or other objects.
Also pay attention to other objects on
the bonnet (e.g. a layer of snow) and
make sure they do not interfere with the
camera.
89) The camera may have limited
or absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers
on the windscreen glass.
90) Camera operation may also be
compromised by the presence of
dust, condensation, dirt or ice on the
windscreen glass, by traffic conditions
(e.g. cars that are driving not aligned
with yours, car driving in a transverse or
opposite way on the same lane, bend
with a small radius of curvature), by
road surface conditions and by driving
conditions (e.g. off-road driving). Make
226
sure the windscreen is always clean. Use
specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windscreen. The
camera operation may also be limited or
absent in some driving, traffic and road
surface conditions.
