LDW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the LDW system. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions for proper use of
the LDW system could result in serious in-
jury or death.
∙ This system is only a warning device to inform the driver of a potential unin-
tended lane departure. It will not steer
the vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is
the driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, keep the vehicle in the trav-
eling lane, and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
∙ The system will not operate at speeds be- low approximately 45 mph (70 km/h) or
if it cannot detect lane markers. ∙ If the LDW system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically, and “Malfunction:
See Owner’s Manual” will appear in the
vehicle information display. If "Malfunc-
tion: See Owner’s Manual” appears in the
vehicle information display, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the ve-
hicle. Place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position and the ignition switch in the
OFF position and restart the engine.If
“Malfunction: See Owner’s Manual” con-
tinues to appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display, have the system checked. It

LDP SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the LDP system. Failure to follow the warn-
ings and instructions for proper use of the
LDP system could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The LDP system will not steer the vehicleor prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely,
keep the vehicle in the traveling lane, and
be in control of the vehicle at all times.
∙ The LDP system is primarily intended for use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers
in certain roads, weather or driving
conditions.
∙ The LDP system may activate if you change lanes without first activating
your turn signal or, for example, if a con-
struction zone directs traffic to cross an
existing lane marker. If this occurs you
may need to apply corrective steering to
complete your lane change. ∙ Because the LDP may not activate under
the road, weather, and lane marker con-
ditions described in this section, it may
not activate every time your vehicle be-
gins to leave its lane and you will need to
apply corrective steering.
∙ When the LDP system is operating, avoid excessive or sudden steering maneuvers.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the
vehicle.
∙ The LDP system will not operate at speeds below approximately 45 mph
(70 km/h) or if it cannot detect lane
markers.
∙ Do not use the LDP system under the fol- lowing conditions as it may not function
properly:
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
– When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
– When driving on winding or uneven roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
