. If an accessory is hung from the inside mirror, correct detection may not be possible.
. Do not touch the user recognition camera or the infrared light source( LED) directly with your fingers. If there is dirt or a fingerprint on these parts, it will not be possible to correctly monitor the driver. If there is dirt or a fingerprint on these parts, either wipe them with a soft dry cloth, or wipe gently with a damp cloth after first firmly wringing the water out.
