NIGHT VIEW SYSTEM PRECAUTION


  1. PRECAUTIONS FOR NIGHT VIEW SYSTEM


    1. The night view system includes a device to emit near-infrared rays, which is installed to each headlight assembly. When working in front of the vehicle, if you look directly at the headlights straight on for a long time (5 minutes or more) while the night view system is operating (near-infrared rays are being emitted), your eyes (corneas, lenses, etc.) may be damaged. Therefore, turn off the night view system before working in front of the vehicle.

      CAUTION:

      When working on the vehicle while the night view system is operating, do not look directly at the headlight assemblies for a long time (5 minutes or more).

    2. The following objects are difficult for the system to display:


      • Clothing made of certain materials (leather jacket, etc.)

      • Information on signs

    3. The display may not be very clear under the following conditions:


      • The weather conditions are poor, such as during rain, snow or fog.

      • The road surface is very reflective, such as after rain when there are puddles.

      • The windshield glass in front of the camera is clouded, dirty or frozen.

      • There is ice, snow, dirt, etc. on the headlight assembly (near-infrared ray emitter).

      • The auxiliary battery voltage is significantly low.

      • There is a bright light source directed towards the vehicle from the front.

  2. PRECAUTIONS FOR NO. 1 NIGHT VIEW ECU AND OBJECT RECOGNITION CAMERA (NIGHT VIEW CAMERA) REPLACEMENT


    1. The No. 1 night view ECU stores certain parameters after camera adjustment is performed. As a result, camera adjustment must be performed even when only the camera or only the ECU is replaced.

    2. As there are differences in the installation position of the camera depending on the particular vehicle, when normal ECUs or cameras are exchanged between 2 vehicles, parameters stored after adjustment may not match, which may result in the system not being able to display the night view picture in the correct position.
