2-4. Using other driving systems
CAUTION
If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on the vehi-
●
cle in cold weather, the system may not operate normally.
When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights, or mercury
●
lights, the lights and the illuminated areas may appear to flicker.
When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of water to the camera
●
or camera area. Doing so may result in the camera malfunctioning.
Conditions which may affect the sensor
■
Do not attach any accessories within the detection range of the sensors.
●
A sensor may not operate properly in the following situations:
●
• There is ice, snow or mud on the sensor. (When it is removed, the normal
operation will return.)
• The sensor is frozen. (When the sensor warms up, it will return to normal.) At
low temperatures in particular, sensors that are frozen may not detect a
parked vehicle.
• When the vehicle is tilted.
• In extreme hot or cold weather.
• When driving on bumpy roads, slopes, gravelled roads or grass.
• Devices issuing ultrasonic waves are operated around your vehicle, such as a
horn from another vehicle, motorcycle engine, air braking sound from heavy-
duty vehicles.
• When rain or water is splashed over the vehicle.
• When a radio antenna or fender pole is mounted on your vehicle.
• The sensor approaches too close to a parked vehicle.
