NOTE
  When the turn signal lever is operated for a lane change, the Lane-keep \
Assist System
(LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is automatically disabled. The
Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) becomes
operational again when the turn signal lever is returned and the system detects white
(yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being driven normally within \
its vehicle lane.
  If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abr\
uptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system determines th\
at the driver is
making a lane change and the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS) operation is temporarily canceled. The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
& Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) becomes operational again when the system
detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being driven no\
rmally within its
vehicle lane.
  If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time, the Lane-
keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) may not operate.
  When white (yellow) lane lines are not detected, the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) &
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) does not operate.

  Under the following conditions, the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS) may not be able to detect white (yellow) lane l\
ines correctly and
it may not operate normally.
  If an object placed on the dashboard is re fl ected in the windshield and picked up by the
camera.
   Heavy luggage is loaded in the luggage compartment or on the rear seat and the
vehicle is tilted.
  The tire pressures are not adjusted to the speci fi ed pressure.   Tires other than conventional tires are equipped.  When the vehicle is driven on the guiding branch to or from the rest area or tollgate of
a highway.
  The white (yellow) lane lines are less visible because of dirt or fading/patchiness.  A vehicle in front of your vehicle is running near a white (yellow) lane line making \
it
less visible.
  A white (yellow) lane line is less visible because of bad weather (rai\
n, fog, or snow).  The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane \
resulting
from construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are
interrupted.
  A misleading line is picked up on the road such as a temporary line for construction,
or because of shade, lingering snow, or grooves fi lled with water.
   The surrounding brightness suddenly changes such as when entering or exiting a
tunnel.
  The illumination of the headlights is weakened because of dirt or the op\
tical axis is
deviated.
  The windshield is dirty or foggy.  The windshield, camera is fogged (water droplets).  Back-light is re fl ected off the road surface.   The road surface is wet and shiny after rain, or there are puddles on the road.  The shade of a guardrail parallel to a white (yellow) lane line is cast on the road.  The width of the driving lane is narrow or wide.  Driving on roads with tight curves.  The road is excessively uneven.  The vehicle is shaken after hitting a road bump.  There are two or more adjacent white (yellow) lane lines.  There are various road markings or lane markings of various shapes near an
intersection.

  When the system detects a white
(yellow) lane line on one side only, the
system will not operate the steering
wheel operation assist and the warning
for the lane line on the side that is not
being detected. The steering wheel
operation assist and the warning is only
for a lane deviation on the side that is
being detected.
  If the driver takes his or her hands off
the steering wheel (not holding the
steering wheel), the warning sound is
activated and an alert is indicated in the
multi-information display or the active
driving display.
