Driving
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
*
Alerts you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle unintentionally
crossing over left or right side lane markings.
If your vehicle is getting too close to detected
left or right side lane markings without a turn
signal activated, LDW will give audible and
visual alerts.
The beeper sounds and the Lane Departure
message appears on the MID, letting you
know that you need to take appropriate
action.
The system begins to search for lane markings when all the following conditions are
met:
•The vehicle is traveling between 40 and 90 mph (64 and 145 km/h).
•The vehicle is on a straight or slightly curved road.
•The turn signals are off.
•The brake pedal is not depressed.■How the System Works
1Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
*
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations.
Over-reliance on LDW may result in a collision. It is
always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within
your driving lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected
without a turn signal in use. LDW may not detect all
lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary
based on weather, speed and lane marker condition.
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
■How the System Activates
