WARNING: (Continued)
LDW will indicate the system is working whenever
it detects either the left or right lane marking. So if
you depart on the side of the lane that LDW is not
detecting, LDW will not warn you.

position within the lane, vehicle damage, injury, or
death could occur. Even with LDW, always keep
your attention on the road and maintain proper
vehicle position within the lane. Always keep the
windshield clean and do not use LDW in bad
weather conditions.
When the vehicle crosses a detected lane marking, theLDW symbol will flash and you will hear three beeps.LDW will not warn you if the turn signal is on or ifyou make a sharp maneuver. Before making a lanechange, check the vehicle’s mirrors, glance over yourshoulder for vehicles and hazards, and start theturn signal before changing lanes.
How the System Works
LDW uses a camera located between the insiderearview mirror and the windshield to detect the lanemarkings.
@(Lane Departure Warning):To turn LDW on and
off, press the LDW control, located by the exteriorheadlamp control. An indicator on the control will light toindicate that LDW is on.
When the vehicle is started, the LDW symbol, located inthe instrument panel cluster, will briefly come on toindicate that the light is operational.
