uuWhen Driving uRoad Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
Continued
Driving
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
Alerts and helps to assist you when the system determines 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 vehicl e is getting too close to
detected lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system, in addition to a visual
alert, applies steering torque and alerts you
with rapid vibrations on the steering wheel, to
help you remain within the detected lane.
2 Customized Features P. 126, 257
As a visual alert, the Lane Departure
message appears on the multi-information
display.
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 with out 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 la ne markings or lane or
roadway departures; accu racy will vary based on
weather, speed and lane marker condition. It is
always your responsibilit y to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system.

The RDM system may not wo rk properly or may work
improperly under the certain conditions: 2 RDM Conditions and Limitations P. 380
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 displays repeated ly and you do not apply
responsive actions, the sy stem beeps and cancels
RDM functions.

Driving
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
provides audible and visual alerts if the vehicle 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 vehicl e control. The system does
not work if you take y our hands off the steering
wheel or fail to steer the vehicle.
2 Multi-Information Display Warning and
Information Messages P. 113
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. LKAS may not detect all
lane markings or lane departures; a ccuracy will vary
based on weather, speed, an d 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. 388
LKAS may not function as designed on while driving
in frequent stop and go traf fic, or on roads with
sharp curves.

When you operate the turn signals to chan ge lanes, the system is suspended, and
resumes after the signals are off.
If you make a lane change without operat ing the turn signals, the LKAS alerts
activate, and torque is applied to the steering.

uuWhen Driving uSuper Handling-All Wheel DriveTM (SH-AWD ®)*
Driving
Super Handling-Al l Wheel DriveTM (SH-AWD®)*
The system controls and trans fers varying amounts of engine torque to each wheel
in accordance with the driving conditions.
SH-AWD helps to enhance driving stability, and lets you handle situations like
slippery surfaces, such as on wet, icy, or snowy roads, better than when driving with
two wheel drive. However, the system does not help to enhance braking. Be
precautious about the following:
• It is still your responsibility to drive sa fely when you steer, accelerate, and apply
brakes.
• Leave a sufficient margin when braking on slippery surfaces.1Super Handling-All Wheel DriveTM (SH-AWD ®)*
The SH-AWD ® system may not function properly if
tire type and size are mixed.
Make sure to use the same size and type of tire, and
the air pressures as specified. 2 Tire and Wheel Replacement P. 468
Do not continuously spin the front tires of your
vehicle. Continuously spinning the front tires can
cause damage to the tran smission and SH-AWD unit.
If the SH-AWD indicator blinks while driving, it
indicates the differential te mperature is too high. If
this happens, pull to the side of the road when it is
safe, change the gear position to
( P, and idle the
engine until the indicator goes out.
