Replacement Of Lens Hood

CAUTION:
  • Perform the operation in the room where there are less dust.
  • During replacement, do not hold at the left and right cameras.
  • During replacement, do not touch the terminals and circuit board.
  • Do not apply any impact to the stereo camera. (Even the slightest shock will deviate the optical axis of the camera, resulting in the loss of normal operation of the camera.)
  • Do not touch the lens portion of the stereo camera or do not allow the tools to come in contact with the stereo camera.
  • Do not clean the lens portion of the stereo camera.
  • Replace the left and right lens hoods as a pair because the optical characteristics for both lens hoods must match.
  • Wear clean nylon and vinyl glove. Do not wear cotton work glove to prevent dust or fiber from adhering to the lens hood.
  • Before starting operation, discharge static electricity carried on body or clothes.
  • Do not touch the lens surface of the stereo camera and lens hood. If touched, replace the stereo camera and lens hood.
  • After replacing the lens hood, perform adjustment and inspection of the stereo camera.

    CAUTION: Do not apply excessive force to the lens hood. The lens filter inside the hood may be tensioned, causing the lens filter to be broken.
    NOTE: If the fingerprint adhesion or damage to the lens filter occurs, the following failures may arise.
    • The vehicle may not be able to detect the preceding vehicle or obstacle due to the effects of the headlight of the oncoming vehicle.
    • The vehicle may not be able to detect the preceding vehicle or obstacle due to the effects of the brake light operation of the preceding vehicle.
    • All the functions of the EyeSight may be suspended by the self-diagnosis function equipped with the camera.
    • When the lens filter is broken, the vehicle may not be able to detect the preceding vehicle or obstacle all day and all night.
