Warning Features
Our engineers rigorously test our warning features in the lab and on the
road to keep you as safe as possible while you drive. However, there are
some circumstances where the features may not work as expected.
Forward Collision Warnings
Forward Collision Warnings will be active when you are driving more than
30 mph. In order to function, Forward Collision Warnings require the
camera to be facing forward and centered roughly on the middle of your
driving lane and the horizon line. This allows your device to detect the
road, which will activate the feature.
The warning system is only intended to detect and warn for upcoming cars
and trucks and will not detect and warn for motorcycles, bicycles or
pedestrians.
Certain conditions may stop Forward Collision Warnings from functioning
correctly:
-
Obscured camera view due to objects, reflections, rain, snow, fog or
frost on windshield
-
Harsh shadows or damaged asphalt/concrete on the roadway
-
Misaligned or missing lane divider lines due to wear or construction
-
Headlight or taillight glare from sun or other elements
-
Camera misalignment, which may result in no warnings or false
warnings
-
Obscured lane divider lines due to snow, rain, fog, dirt, sand,
salt, etc.
-
Obstructions on the road that may block the view of divider lines
-
Dark or low-light environments
-
Vehicles greater than 130 feet away or closer than 16 feet
Lane Departure Warnings
Lane Departure Warnings will be active when you are driving more than 40
mph. In order to function, Lane Departure Warnings require the camera to
be facing forward and centered roughly on the middle of your driving
lane and the horizon line. This allows your device to detect the road,
which will activate the feature.
Certain conditions may stop Lane Departure Warnings from functioning
correctly:
-
Obscured camera view due to objects, reflections, rain, snow, fog or
frost on the windshield
-
Harsh shadows or damaged asphalt/concrete on the roadway
-
Misaligned or missing lane divider lines due to wear or construction
-
Headlight or taillight glare from sun or other elements
-
Camera misalignment, which may result in no warnings or false
warnings
-
Obscured lane divider lines due to snow, rain, fog, dirt, sand,
salt, etc.
-
Obstructions on the road that may block the view of divider lines,
such as vegetation and more
-
Very bright or dark low-light environments
-
Extremely narrow, wide or winding roads
-
Certain types of roads, such as on- or off-ramps and merge lanes
-
Destinations far from the road, close to a turn or maneuver, or
located on a very curvy or hilly road
