Limitation of the system
The FCA is an assistant system for a
driver in a certain risky driving condi-
tion and it does not take every
responsibility for all risks from driving
condition.
The FCA monitors the driving situa-
tions through the radar and the cam-
era sensor. Thus, for a situation out
of the sensing range, the FCA may
not normally operate. The driver
should pay great caution in the fol-
lowing situations. The FCA operation
may be limited.
Recognizing vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
• The radar sensor or camera is
blocked with a foreign object or
debris
• The camera lens is contaminated
due to tinted, filmed or coated
windscreen, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
• Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• There is interference by electro-
magnetic waves
• There is severe irregular reflection
from the radar sensor
• The radar/camera sensor recogni-
tion is limited
• The vehicle in front is too small to
be detected (for example a motor-
cycle etc.)
• The vehicle in front is an oversize
vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
• The camera's field of view is not
well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view)
• The vehicle in front does not have
their rear lights or their rear lights
does not turned ON or their rear
lights are located unusually.
• The outside brightness changes
suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
• When light coming from a street
light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road • The
field of view in front is obstructed
by sun glare
• The vehicle in front is driving errat-
ically
• The vehicle is on unpaved or
uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
