  • On steep hills, in steep depressions or in tight curves.
  • When the camera is dirty or the protective glass is damaged.

Animals are not detected by the pedestrian detection function, even if they are clearly visible in the image.

Limited pedestrian detection:

  • When people are fully or partially covered, especially when their heads are covered.
