Function failure
When the vehicle is driving normally, if the ELK
fault warning lamp (red) on the instrument
cluster lights up, it means the ELK function is
faulty and will not work.
If this lamp remains on upon self-learning of the
system during driving for a period of time after
the engine is restarted, contact an authorized
dealer for inspection and repair as soon as
possible.
Factors of function limitations
The ELK may be affected or inoperative under
the following conditions:
● Poor visibility caused by, e.g., rain or fog;
● There are obstacles in front of the camera;
● Overtemperature around the camera due to
direct sunlight;
● Glare due to direct sunlight, oncoming traffic,
reflected light from road water-logging, etc.;
● Sudden changes in outdoor brightness, such
as when entering/exiting tunnels;
● At night or in case of low light illumination in
tunnels;
● Faulty or inoperative system possibly caused
by strong electromagnetic interference (such
as high-voltage substation, and millimeter
wave transmitter with the same frequency
band as corner radar) in the working
environment;
● Absence of lane markings, or difficulty in
distinguishing the lane marking color from the
road surface color;
● Lane markings are unclear and irregular;
● Too wide or narrow lanes, or too sharp
curves;
● Increase or decrease in lanes, or complicated
routing of lane markings;
● More than two lane markings on the left and
right sides of the vehicle;
● Marks or objects similar to lane markings on
roads;
● Isolation strips or other objects casting
shadows on lane markings;
● Short-term change of markings, such as at
on-ramp or freeway exit.
● This system cannot avoid the risk of collision
in the ego lane when there are other vehicles
or pedestrians in the ego lane. Therefore, the
driver needs to keep effective control of the
steering wheel.
