- Vehicle maintenance status ( brake systems , tire wear , tire pressure , whether a temporary spare tire is being used , etc .) - A trailer or another vehicle , etc . is being towed . - The brakes are cold due to the outside temperature being low or just after starting the engine . - The brakes are overheated on downhill grades ( braking performance is reduced ). - In rain or after washing the vehicle ( the brakes are wet and braking performance is reduced .)
- Recognition conditions of the stereo camera In particular , the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate in the following cases .
• The object moves outside the camera ’ s field of view .
• Bad weather ( for example heavy rain , a blizzard or thick fog )
• Visibility is poor due to sand , smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind , or the front vision is obscured due to water splashes , snow , dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic .
• At night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
• At night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on
• Approaching a motorcycle , cyclist or pedestrian at night
• A vehicle , motorcycle , cyclist or pedestrian is outside the area illuminated by the headlights .
• Strong light is coming from the front ( for example , sunlight at dawn , sunset or headlight beams , etc .).
• The windshield has become fogged , scratched or smeared , or snow , dirt , dust or frost has adhered to it , or it is otherwise affected . These will reduce the stereo camera ’ s field of view . Also , light is reflecting off the dirt , etc .
