If active driver steering is not detected, the amber may flash and the Safety Alert Seat may pulse or beeps may sound (if selected), on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. In order to use this sys-tem safely, the driver needs to steer and be in
complete control of the vehicle.
To turn on or off, press the Lane Keep Assist button (A) on the steering wheel.
