244 - Driving
Some conditions can disrupt or damage the system operation, for example:
– obstruction of the windscreen or the radar area (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.) Frequently check the
cleanliness and condition of the windscreen, front wiper blades and front bumper;
– a complex environment (tunnel, etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, heavy rain, hail, black ice, etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog, etc.);
– poor contrast between the vehicle preceding it and the surrounding area (e.g. white vehicle in a snowy area, etc.);
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposite direction; etc.);
– narrow, winding or undulating road (tight bends, etc.);
– the tar lines detected as a line by the system;
– narrowing/widening lanes;
– road markings which are worn, lacking in contrast or very widely spaced from one another (lines partially erased; etc.);
– multiple markings on the road (roadworks area, slip roads connecting to adjacent motorways, hard shoulder, etc.);
– road signs that do not include an arrow, located on a motorway exit;
– an area with low connectivity that makes it impossible to geolocate the vehicle, or maps that are not up-to-date;
– a vehicle with a significant difference in speed;
– use of mats not adapted to the vehicle. On the driver's side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-
fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay one mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the
pedals.
In these cases:
– Risk of unwanted braking or acceleration.
– Risk of unwanted, incorrect correction or no correction of trajectory.
Many unforeseen situations may affect the system operation. Certain objects or vehicles that can appear in the camera or
radar detection zone may be interpreted by the system incorrectly, possibly leading to inappropriate acceleration or braking.
You should always be attentive to sudden events that might occur while you are driving. Always maintain your ve
hicle under control by keeping your feet near the pedals and your hands on the steering wheel, so that you are
ready to act in any event.
