body and the person must be at least
32 in. (80 cm) tall.
•The system cannot detect a pedestrian
carrying a large object.
•The camera's capacity to see a pedestrian
at dawn or dusk is limited, much as it is for
the human eye.
•The camera's function is deactivated and
will not detect a pedestrian in darkness or
in tunnels, even if there is street lighting in
the area.
WARNING
•Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake
and Pedestrian Detection is designed to
be a supplementary driving aid. It is not,
however, intended to replace the driv-
er's attention and judgement. The driver
is always responsible for operating the
vehicle in a safe manner.
•The system cannot detect all pedes-
trians in all situations, such as in dark-
ness/at night and cannot detect parti-
ally hidden pedestrians, people who are
less than approx. 32 in. (80 cm) tall, or
people wearing clothing that obscures
the contours of their bodies.
Fault tracing and actions
If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is displayed, this means that the cam-
era is obscured and cannot detect pedestrians,
vehicles or road marker lines in front of the
vehicle.
This, in turn, means that Collision Warning with
Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection,
Lane Departure Warning, and Driver Alert Con-
trol will not have full functionality.
The table lists possible causes for this mes-
sage being displayed, and suitable actions.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)–
introduction
This function is designed to help reduce the
risk of accidents in situations where the vehicle
leaves its lane and there is a risk of driving off
the road or into the opposite lane. LDW con-
sists of a camera that monitors the lane’s side
marker lines. The driver is alerted by an audible
signal if the vehicle crosses a side marker line
or the road’s center dividing line.
Operation and function
LDW can be switched on or off by pressing the
button on the center console. A light in the but-
ton illuminates when the function is on.
The trip computer display shows
Driver alert
<40 mph (65 km/h) when the function is in
standby mode.
When LDW is in standby mode, the function is
activated automatically after the camera has
monitored the road’s side marker lines and the
vehicle’s speed exceeds 40 mph (65 km/h).
Lane Depart Warn Available will be dis-
played.
If the vehicle’s speed falls below 37 mph
(60 km/h), LDW will return to standby modeand
Driver alert <40 mph (65 km/h) will be
displayed.
If the camera can no longer monitor the road’s
side marker lines,
Lane Depart Warn
Unavailable will be displayed.
If the vehicle unexpectedly crosses the lane’s
left or right side marker lines, the driver will be
alerted by an audible signal.
No warning signal will be given in the follow-
ing situations:
•The turn signal is being used
•The driver’s foot is on the brake pedal1
•The throttle pedal is pressed quickly
•If the steering wheel is moved quickly
•In sharp turns that cause the vehicle’s
body to sway.
See page 165 for information on the camera’s
limitations.
WARNING
The driver will only be warned once for each
time the wheels cross a marker line. No
alarm will be given if a marker line is
between the wheels.
1A warning will be given even when Increased sensitivity has been selected.
