DRIVING
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
visual and tactile alerts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane while driving
between 45–90 mph (72–145 km/h).
If your vehicle begins to drift away from the
center of a detected lane without a turn signal
activated, steering torque is applied to help keep
your vehicle centered within the lane.
If your vehicle continues to drift and gets too
close to detected left or right side lane markings,
a Lane Departure message appears on the MID
and the steering wheel vibrates. In either case,
take appropriate action to stay within your
driving lane.
Turning LKAS On or Off
1.
Press MAIN. LKAS appears in the MID
.
2.
Press the LKAS button. Lane

outlines appear
in the MID. Dotted lane lines turn solid when
the system operates.
3.
Press MAIN or the

LKAS button to turn the
system off.
Important Safety Reminder
LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a substitute for your vehicle control. The
system does not work if you take your hands off the steering wheel or fail to steer
the vehicle.
Do not place an object on the top of the instrument panel. It may reflect onto the
windshield and prevent the system from detecting lane lines properly.
Do not use when towing.
