Check Windshield Glass Including Prohibited Area
- PROHIBITED AREA FOR STICKER ATTACHMENT AND INSPECTION
Do not attach stickers in the prohibited area on the windshield as follows. In addition, there must be no oil film, dirt or scratch in the prohibited area that obstructs the visibility of each stereo camera. Clean the windshield glass if oil film, dirt or fogging is found on the glass, and repair or replace if the windshield is scratched. The vehicle inspection label that is required to be attached on the windshield should be attached on the specified position. If stickers or windshield-related issues adversely affect the visibility of the camera, the functions of HBA and EyeSight may not work properly.
NOTE:- Do not attach any foreign matter such as oil and fluid.
- When cleaning the inner side of the windshield glass, be careful not to touch the lens of the stereo camera. Take care so that the glass cleaner is not applied to the lens. Before starting the operation, cover the cover assembly stereo camera opening with dust-free paper such as copy paper to avoid interference with the camera lens, and attach the paper using tape while being careful not to let the adhesive surface contact the glass surface. Be sure to remove the paper after the procedure. If touched, replace the camera assembly.
- When replacing the windshield glass, be sure to replace the part for the EyeSight.
- If the glass is removed or replaced, always perform the stereo camera adjustment and inspection.
Prohibited area
The illustration below shows from the passenger compartment.
- PROHIBITED AREA OF DASHBOARD AND INSPECTION
There must be no oil film, dirt, scratch or fogging that obstructs the forward visibility of the stereo camera. Do not stick or attach the aftermarket parts on the prohibited area (E) shown as follows. If abnormality of the function occurs due to light reflection or glass reflection, even though placed outside the prohibited area, change the attachment position or installation position. Attaching a sticker or antenna or installing a wide type mirror will affect the visibility of the stereo camera, causing the function not to operate correctly. In addition, placing a navigation system, ETC device or an object on the dashboard will cause reflection on the windshield glass, affecting the recognition of the stereo camera, thus causing the function not to operate correctly.
- PROHIBITED AREA FOR REPAIR AND INSPECTION
The illustration below shows from the passenger compartment.
If the damage is found in the glass repair prohibited area, always replace the glass. Damage in the prohibited area can affect the recognition of the stereo camera even if it is repaired, and thereby EyeSight function may not operate properly.
NOTE: The center of the glass should be aligned with the line connecting "a" and "b" in the figure (the center positions of upper/lower end dotted lines on the black ceramics area).
