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 Ú page 108.
DETECTION RANGE
The system can detect people 4 ft (1.25 m) tall
or greater in the upright position. The system
can also detect animals that are four-legged
and 3 ft (1 m) tall or greater in the upright
position.
The detection distance for the system is
between 26 ft (8 m) and 328 ft (100 m) from
the front of the vehicle.
The system may not be able to detect
pedestrians or animals in the following
situations:
Pedestrian/animal is outside of the detection
range
Pedestrian/animal is fully or partially covered
Pedestrian/animal does not reach the
minimum detection height
NOTE:
Other objects on the road that meet the height/
shape/temperature (e.g. sun exposure) of
pedestrians/animals may be detected and clas-
sified as targets.
WARNING!
Do not jerk the steering wheel in response
to a warning.
Never attempt to swerve around animals if
doing so would endanger you or other
drivers on the road.
Do not stare at the image while driving. You
could crash and you or others could be
injured.
The Night Vision system only provides alerts
to objects of interest and cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal judg-
ment. The warnings are meant to direct
your attention to the detected objects, but
the Night Vision system does not automati-
cally brake the vehicle and may not provide
a warning with enough time to help avoid a
crash.
Warnings are only provided if a pedestrian
or large animal is detected by the system.
It is always the driver’s responsibility to be
attentive of road, traffic, and weather
conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the
vehicle ahead; and, most importantly,
brake operation to ensure safe operation of
the vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required while
driving to maintain safe control of your
vehicle.
WARNING!
WARNING!
Night Vision can only detect pedestrians
and animals located within the range of the
infrared camera.
Night Vision may not detect pedestrians or
animals and highlight them if:
They are not in an upright position, for
example if they are sitting or lying down,
or if the pedestrian is riding a bicycle
The figure in the display appears incom-
plete, for example because the pedes-
trian or animal is partially behind a
vehicle
The pedestrian/animal is not directly
ahead in the coverage area
