S00638
CAUTION
A function is included that will automatically detect that the fronts of the
stereo cameras are dirty. However it is not 100% effective.
Under certain conditions, this function may fail to detect that the fronts of
the stereo cameras have become dirty. In addition, this function may not
detect that there is snow or ice on the windshield close to the stereo cameras. In such conditions, the system may not maintain a suitable distance
between vehicles; therefore, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control and be
sure to pay attention to what is ahead of you while driving. Also be sure to
keep the windshield clean at all times (indicated by
). When this function detects that the fronts of the stereo cameras are dirty, no EyeSight
functions are activated except for Conventional Cruise Control.
The stereo camera lenses are precision components. Always observe the
following precautions when handling them.
- Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or
clean the lenses. Doing so could cause lens damage or contamination
and lead to improper system performance.
If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU
dealer.
