WARNING
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due care and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
System servicing/repairs
  • In the event of an impact, the camera alignment may be changed, and its operation may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function, then consult an authorised dealer.
  • Any work in the area where the camera is located (repairs, replacements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disrupt or damage the system operation, for example:
  • a complex environment (tunnel, etc.);
  • poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice, etc.);
  • poor visibility (night, fog, etc.);
  • road markings which are worn, lacking in contrast or very widely spaced from one another (lines partially erased; etc.);
  • being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposite direction; etc.);
  • the road is narrow, winding or undulating (tight bends, etc.);
  • closely following a vehicle travelling in the same lane.
