About EyeSight
4
CAUTION
xThe characteristics of the stereo cameras are similar to those of human
eyes. For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see
in the forward direction have the same effect on the stereo cameras and
make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles and traffic
lanes.
xDetection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the
range of the stereo cameras’ field of view. Also, after an object enters the
range of the cameras’ field of view, it may take some time for the system
to detect it as a controllable target and warn the driver.
xUnder the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the sys-
tem to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and
obstacles on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily
stop operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these
conditions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of
time.
- Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particu-
lar, the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is
an oil film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied,
or poorly performing wipers are used.)
- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams
of oncoming traffic, etc.)
- When the front windshield washer is being used.
- When raindrops, water drops, or dirt on the front windshield are not
wiped off sufficiently
- The windshield has become fogged, or snow, dirt, dust or frost has
adhered to it, reducing the stereo cameras’ field of view.
- The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other
factors.
- When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a
canoe on the roof of the vehicle)

Low objects surrounding the vehicle
cannot be detected.

Troubleshooting
88
EyeSight does not restart after a temporary stop.
Has the vehicle been parked in a cold or hot place? In either of these cases,
EyeSight may temporarily stop operating until the temperature increases or
decreases to a temperature at which the camera is operable.
Are you driving in the rain with poorly performing wipers or is there an oily film on
the windshield?
Replace the wipers with new ones, or clean the oily film off the windshield.
Are you driving in poor weather conditions with heavy rain, snow, fog, or dust? In
these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating while visibility is very low.
Is your vehicle subject to sunlight from the front (sunset or sunrise, etc.) or to
bright headlights from oncoming vehicles at nighttime?
In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating.
The timing of the “brake more” warning is sometimes earlier and sometimes later
than what seems to be normal operation.
The “brake more” warning sounds when the system determines that more braking
is necessary, based on conditions such as the distance from the vehicle in front
and the difference in speed compared to it. As a result, timing may vary depend-
ing on how the brakes are applied in relation to the vehicle in front, and your rela-
tive speed to that vehicle.
When the vehicle in front has turned off the road away or the distance from the
vehicle in front has increased, acceleration is sometimes slower or faster.
Depending on the timing of when the detection of the vehicle in front is lost,
EyeSight’s ability to react may be slower, causing the start of acceleration to feel
delayed and braking time to feel longer than what seems to be normal operation.
