The highlighting of the object(s) of interest will update
in real time based upon the current Night Vision
assessment.
The Night Vision system display can be deactivated
under certain conditions. See
page 163 for further
information.
The two categories of Night Vision warnings are Pedes-
trian Warnings and Animal Warnings.
Pedestrian Warning Telltale
Animal Warning Telltale
A Pedestrian or Animal Warning is considered either
Level 1 or Level 2. Level 1 warnings are yellow, and
Level 2 warnings are red. The colors are not
configurable.
Level 1 Warnings:
•
Yellow telltale in the instrument cluster display
•
Yellow highlights around the detected
pedestrian/animal
•
Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds
greater than 8 mph (13 km/h) and the target is in or
approaching the vehicle path
Level 2 Warnings:
•
Red telltale in the instrument cluster display
•
Red highlights around the detected
pedestrian/animal
•
Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds
greater than 8 mph (13 km/h) and a collision with
the detected pedestrian/animal is possible
•
The pedestrian/animal is directly in the vehicle
path, close to the headlight area
•
A video pop-up will display when there is a target
detected and the instrument cluster display is not
showing the Night Vision page
•
A chime will sound for a Level 2 Warning detection
event
Only one telltale can be displayed at a time based upon
priority.
The priority order of the warnings from highest to lowest
is:
1. Pedestrian Warning Level 2
2. Animal Warning Level 2
3. Pedestrian Warning Level 1
4. Animal Warning Level 1
Level 2 Warnings may display in the Head Up Display
(if equipped).
NOTE:
If the vehicle is stopped, or slowing down, all Level
2 warnings become Level 1 warnings.
You can enable or disable the warnings within the
Uconnect system
page 182.
If the warnings are off, the telltales, chimes, and
warning messages will all be off. Pedestrians and ani-
mals can still be detected by the system, but there will
be no warnings.
The Night Vision alert status telltale will be
gray when the warnings are suppressed. The
telltale will also turn gray to indicate that the
alerts are suppressed due to environmental
factors (e.g. daylight hours, external temperature is
greater than 86°F (30°C)) or if the gear selector is in
REVERSE. When the Night Vision alerts are active, the
telltale will be green
page 103.
Camera Washers
When the front window washer is activated, the Night
Vision camera will also be washed
page 61.
