uuWhen Driving uAdaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Driving
■How to activate the system1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)  with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
When the MAIN button is pressed, both ACC with 
LSF and the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) are 
either turned on or off.
ACC with LSF may not work  properly under certain 
conditions. 2 ACC with LSF Conditions and Limitations  
P. 421
When not using ACC with LSF: Turn off adaptive 
cruise by pressing the  MAIN button. This also will 
turn off the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).
Do not use ACC with LSF under the following 
conditions:
•On roads with heavy traf fic or while driving in 
continuous stop and go traffic.
•On roads with sharp turns.
•On roads with steep downhill sections, as the set 
vehicle speed can be exceed ed by coasting. In such 
cases, ACC with LSF will not apply the brakes to 
maintain the set speed.
•On roads with toll collection facilities or other 
objects between lanes of  traffic, or in parking 
areas, or faci lities with driv e through access.
How to use
■Press the MAIN button on 
the steering wheel.
ACC (green) is on in the instrument panel.
ACC with LSF is ready to use.

uuWhen Driving uRoad Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
Driving
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
Alerts and helps to assist you when the sy stem detects a possibility of your vehicle 
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings.
The front camera behind the rearview mirror 
monitors left and right lane markings (in white 
or yellow). If your vehicle is getting too close 
to detected lane markings without a turn 
signal activated, the system, in addition to a 
visual alert, applies st eering torque and alerts 
you with rapid vibrations on the steering 
wheel, to help you remain within the detected 
lane.
As a visual alert, the  Lane Departure 
message appears on the driver information 
interface.
If the system determines  that its steering input 
is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the 
roadway, it may apply braking. u Braking is applied only when the lane 
markings are solid continuous lines.
The system cancels assisting operations wh en you turn the steering wheel to avoid 
crossing over detected lane markings.
If the system operates several times without  detecting driver response, the system 
beeps to alert you.
■How the System Works
1 Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has 
limitations.
Over-reliance on the RDM system may result in a 
collision. It is always your  responsibility to keep the 
vehicle within your driving lane.
The RDM system only alerts  you when lane drift is 
detected without a turn signal in use. The RDM 
system may not detect all  lane markings or lane 
departures; accuracy will  vary based on weather, 
speed and lane marker condi tion. It is always your 
responsibility to sa fely operate the vehicle and avoid 
collisions.
You can read about handling information for the 
camera equipped with this system.
2 Front Sensor Camera
* P. 414
The RDM system may not wo rk properly or may work 
improperly under the certain conditions:
2 RDM Conditions and Limitations  P. 432
There are times when you may not notice RDM 
functions due to your opera tion of the vehicle, or 
road surface conditions. If the  Lane Departure 
message appears repeated ly and you do not apply 
responsive actions, the  beeper sounds and RDM 
functions will be canceled.

uuWhen Driving uLane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Driving
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and 
provides tactile and visual alerts if the ve hicle is detected drifting out of its lane.1Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Important Safety Reminders
The LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a 
substitute for your vehicle control. The system does 
not work if you take y our hands off the steering 
wheel or fail to steer the vehicle.
2 Driver Information Interface Warning and 
Information Messages
* P. 91
Do not place objects on the instrument panel. 
Objects may reflect on th e front windshield and 
prevent correct detectio n of the traffic lanes.
LKAS only alerts you when  lane drift is detected 
without a turn signal in use. The LKAS 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.
The LKAS is convenient when it is used on freeways.
The LKAS may not work properly or may work 
improperly under the certain conditions: 2 LKAS Conditions and Limitations  P. 439
You can read about handling information for the 
camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera
* P. 414
When you operate the turn signals to cha nge lanes, the system is suspended, and 
resumes after the signals are off.
()  If you make a lane change without operating the turn signals, the LKAS 
alerts activate, and torque  is applied to the steering.
■LKAS camera
Monitors the 
lane lines■Tactile and visual alerts
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel 
and a warning display alert you that 
the vehicle is drifting out of a detected 
lane.
■Steering input assist
The system applies torque to the steerin g to keep the vehicle between the left 
and right lane lines. The applied torque becomes stronger as the vehicle gets 
closer to either of the lane lines.

uuWhen Driving uLane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Driving
Provides assistance to keep the vehicle in the center of the lane. When the vehicle 
nears a white or yellow line, steering force of the electric power steering will become 
stronger.
When the vehicle enters the warning area,  the LKAS alerts you with slight steering 
wheel vibration as well as a warning display.
■Lane Keep Support Function1 Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
LKAS may not function as  designed while driving in 
frequent stop and  go traffic, or on roads with sharp 
curves.
When it fails to detect lanes, the system will 
temporarily be canceled. When lane is detected, 
system will recover automatically.
