• Visibility is poor and lane markings are
not clearly visible (due to heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.). The exact detection zone
of the ultrasonic sensors varies depending
on environmental conditions.
• Bright light (such as from oncoming
headlights or direct sunlight) is interfering
with the view of the camera(s).
• A vehicle in front of Model X is blocking
the view of the camera(s).
• The windshield is obstructing the view of
the camera(s) (fogged over, dirty, covered
by a sticker, etc.).
• Lane markings are excessively worn, have
visible previous markings, have been
adjusted due to road construction, or are
changing quickly (for example, lanes
branching off, crossing over, or merging).
• The road is narrow or winding.
• Objects or landscape features are casting
strong shadows on lane markers.
Lane Assist may not provide warnings, or may
apply inappropriate warnings, in these
situations:
• One or more of the ultrasonic sensors is
damaged, dirty, or obstructed (by mud,
ice, or snow, or by a vehicle bra, excessive
paint, or adhesive products such as
wraps, stickers, rubber coatings, etc.).
• Weather conditions (heavy rain, snow,
fog, or extremely hot or cold
temperatures) are interfering with sensor
operation.
• The sensors are affected by other
electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
• An object that is mounted to Model X is
interfering with and/or obstructing a
sensor (such as a bike rack or a bumper
sticker).
In addition, Lane Assist may not steer
Model X away from an adjacent vehicle, or
may apply unnecessary or inappropriate
steering, in these situations:
• You are driving Model X on sharp corners
or on a curve at a relatively high speed.
• Bright light (such as from oncoming
headlights or direct sunlight) is interfering
with the view of the camera(s).
• You are drifting into another lane but an
object (such as a vehicle) is not present.
• A vehicle in another lane cuts in front of
you or drifts into your driving lane.
• Model X is not traveling within the speeds
at which the Lane Assist feature is
designed to operate.
• One or more of the ultrasonic sensors is
damaged, dirty, or obstructed (such as by
mud, ice, or snow, or by a vehicle bra,
excessive paint, or adhesive products
such as wraps, stickers, rubber coating,
etc.).
• Weather conditions (heavy rain, snow,
fog, or extremely hot or cold
temperatures) are interfering with sensor
operation.
• The sensors are affected by other
electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
• An object mounted to Model X (such as a
bike rack or a bumper sticker) is
interfering with or obstructing a sensor.
• Visibility is poor and lane markings are
not clearly visible (due to heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.).
• Lane markings are excessively worn, have
visible previous markings, have been
adjusted due to road construction or are
changing quickly (for example, lanes
branching off, crossing over, or merging).
WARNING:
The lists above do not
represent every possible situation that
may interfere with Lane Assist
features. There are many reasons why
Lane Assist may not operate as
intended. To avoid a collision, stay
alert and always pay attention to the
road so you can anticipate the need to
take corrective action as early as
possible.
