To reduce the cost of accident repair, the mounting of the front proximity cameras features a 'snap free' bracket. On impact, the bracket releases the proximity camera and prevents damage to the proximity camera itself. Depending on the severity of the accident, it may also be possible to reuse the brackets as they are manufactured from a memory type plastic.
The positioning accuracy of all the cameras is crucial for the successful operation of the proximity camera system. The camera housings are manufactured using metal to maintain structural stability in high-ambient temperatures. Without this stability, a loss of image focus would be possible. Use caution when installing the cameras to make sure that they sit correctly into their locations. Secure mounting of the cameras provides an initial 'build up' tolerance accurate to 2 mm. The cameras are calibrated using Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) approved diagnostic equipment.
