■Temporary cancelation of the LDA system functions
If any of the following occurs, the LDA system functions will be temporarily
canceled. The functions will resume after the necessary operating conditions
have returned.

WARNING
■Before using the LDA system
Do not rely solely on the LDA system. The LDA system does not drive the
vehicle automatically, nor does it reduce the amount of care you need to
take. As such, the driver must always assume full responsibility for under-
standing his/her surroundings, for operati ng the steering wheel to correct
the driving line, and for driving safely.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an accident.
■ To avoid operating the LDA by mistake
Switch the LDA system off using the LDA switch when not in use.
