200 Driving and Operating
Lighting Conditions Affecting ACC
The ACC front camera can be
affected by poor lighting conditions,
and ACC may have limited
performance when:
.There are changes in brightness,
such as entering and exiting
tunnels, bridges, and
overpasses
. Low sun angles cause the
camera to not detect objects,
or it is more difficult to detect
objects in the same traffic lane
. Lighting is poor in the evening or
early morning
. There are multiple changes in
brightness or shadows along the
vehicle roadway
. In a tunnel without the head
lamps on, or in a tunnel when
there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its tail lamps on .
Subjected to strong light from
opposing lane traffic in the front
of the vehicle, such as
high-beam head lamps from
oncoming traffic
Accessory Installations and
Vehicle Modifications
Do not install or place any object on
the front of the vehicle that would
obstruct the front radar view.
Do not install or place any object
around the front camera windshield
area that would obstruct the front
camera view.
Do not install objects on top of the
vehicle that overhang and obstruct
the front camera, such as a canoe,
kayak, or other items that can be
transported on a roof rack system.
Do not modify the hood, head
lamps, or fog lamps, as this may
limit the camera's ability to detect an
object. Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the
windshield ahead of the rearview
mirror and the radar sensors on the
front of the vehicle can become
blocked by snow, ice, dirt, or mud.
These areas need to be cleaned for
ACC to operate properly.
If ACC will not operate, regular
cruise control may be available. See
"Switching Between ACC and
Regular Cruise Control" in this
section. Always consider driving
conditions before using either cruise
control system.
For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle”
under
Exterior Care 0309.
