Camera-Based Driver Support Systems Camera Heating: Notes

The KAFAS camera heating (KAFAS = camera-based driver support systems) is located on the edge of the field of view of the KAFAS camera. The heating is intended to prevent the windscreen in front of the KAFAS camera from fogging over and freezing. This increases the availability of the camera-based driver support systems camera during cold weather.

Depending on the series, the following versions are used for the heating:

• Adhered heating pad on the inside of the windscreen (e.g. F15, F25)
• Adhered thin heating wire on the inside of the windscreen (e.g. F01, F10, F30)
