Camera limitations
The camera used by several of the driver support
functions has certain limitations, which also
affect the functions using the camera.
Reduced visibility
The camera has the same limitations as the
human eye. In other words, its “vision" is impaired
by adverse weather conditions such as heavy
snowfall/rain, dense fog, swirling dust/snow, etc.
These conditions may reduce the function of sys-
tems that depend on the camera or cause these
systems to temporarily stop functioning.
Strong sunlight, reflections from the road surface,
ice or snow covering the road, a dirty road sur-
face, or unclear lane marker lines may drastically
reduce the camera’s ability to detect the side of a
lane, a pedestrian, a cyclist, a large animal or
another vehicle.
Obstructed camera
The area marked in the illustration must be kept free of
decals, objects, solar film, etc.

The camera is located on the upper interior sec-
tion of the windshield along with the radar sen-
sor.
CAUTION
Do not place, affix or mount anything on the
inside or outside of the windshield, or in front
of or around the camera and radar unit – this
could disrupt camera and radar-based func-
tions.
It could cause functions to be reduced, deac-
tivated completely or produce an incorrect
function response.
If this symbol and the message
“
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual” is
displayed in the instrument panel, it
means that the camera and radar sensor are
unable to detect other vehicles, cyclists, pedes-
trians and large animals in front of the vehicle
and that the vehicle's camera and radar-based
functions may be obstructed, reduced, completely
disabled or providing inaccurate responses.
The following table shows some of the situations
that can cause the message to be displayed, and
suggested actions:
