Go Alert
The Go alert plays a tone and displays an alert when stopped
traffic starts moving. This alert appears only after the vehicle
ahead has moved a substantial distance and your vehicle has
remained stopped. This can be useful at stop lights or in traffic
delays. This feature uses the dash camera to detect the stopped
or moving vehicle and requires a clear view of the road.
Forward Collision Warning System
WARNING
The forward collision warning system (FCWS) feature is for
information only and does not replace your responsibility to
observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic
regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The
FCWS relies on the camera to provide a warning of upcoming
vehicles and, as a result, may have limited functionality in low
visibility conditions.
NOTE:
This feature is not available in all areas or for all product
models.
The FCWS feature alerts you when the device detects that you
are not maintaining a safe distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front of you. The device determines your vehicle
speed using GPS, and it calculates an estimated safe following
distance based on your speed. The FCWS activates
automatically when your vehicle speed exceeds 48 km/hr
(30 mph).
When the device detects that you are too close to the vehicle
ahead of you, the device plays an audible alert, and a warning
appears on the screen.
Forward Collision Warning System Performance Tips
Several factors affect the performance of the forward collision
warning system (FCWS). Some conditions may prevent the
FCWS feature from detecting a vehicle ahead of you.
• The FCWS feature activates only when your vehicle speed
exceeds 48 km/h (30 mph).
• The FCWS feature may not detect a vehicle ahead of you
when the camera's view of the vehicle is obscured by rain,
fog, snow, sun or headlight glare, or darkness.
• The FCWS feature may not function properly if the camera is
incorrectly aligned (
).
• The FCWS feature may not detect vehicles greater than 40 m
(130 ft.) away or closer than 5 m (16 ft.).
Lane Departure Warning System
WARNING
The lane departure warning system (LDWS) feature is for
information only and does not replace your responsibility to
observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic
regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The
LDWS relies on the camera to provide warnings for lane
