dirt, snow, or ice; if they are
not in proper condition; or if
the sun shines directly into
the camera.
. Detect road edges.
. Detect lanes on winding or
hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane markings
on one side of the road, it will
only assist or provide an LDW
alert when approaching the lane
on the side where it has detected
a lane marking. Even with LKA
and LDW, you must steer the
vehicle. Always keep your
attention on the road and
maintain proper vehicle position
within the lane, or vehicle
damage, injury, or death could
occur. Always keep the
windshield, headlamps, and
camera sensors clean and in
good repair. Do not use LKA in (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
bad weather conditions or on
roads with unclear lane markings,
such as construction zones.
{Warning
Using LKA while towing a trailer
or on slippery roads could cause
loss of control of the vehicle and
a crash. Turn the system off.
How the System Works
LKA uses a camera sensor installed
on the windshield ahead of the
rearview mirror to detect lane
markings. It may provide brief
steering assist if it detects an
unintended lane departure. It may
further provide an audible alert or
driver seat may pulse indicating that
a lane marking has been crossed. To turn LKA on and off, press
A
to the left of the steering wheel.
If equipped, the indicator light on the
button comes on when LKA is on
and turns off when LKA is disabled.
When on,
Ais white, if equipped,
indicating that the system is not
ready to assist.
Ais green if LKA
is ready to assist and alert if the
vehicle crosses detected markings
on one or both sides of the lane.
LKA may assist by gently turning
the steering wheel if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane
marking.
Ais amber when
assisting. It may also provide a
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
alert by flashing
Aamber if the
vehicle crosses a detected lane
marking. Additionally, there may be
three beeps, or the driver seat may
pulse three times, on the right or
left, depending on the lane
departure direction.

256 Driving and Operating
Take Steering
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
If LKA does not detect active driver
steering, an alert, chime, or DIC
message may be provided. Steer
the vehicle to dismiss. LKA may
become temporarily unavailable
after repeated take steering alerts.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The system performance may be
affected by:
.Close vehicles ahead.
. Sudden lighting changes, such
as when driving through tunnels.
. Banked roads.
. Roads with poor lane markings,
such as two-lane roads or in
construction zones.
If the LKA system is not functioning
properly when lane markings are
clearly visible, cleaning the
windshield may help. A camera blocked message may
display if the camera is blocked.
Some driver assistance systems
may have reduced performance or
not work at all. Cleaning the outside
of the windshield behind the
rearview mirror may correct the
issue. The LKA system does not
need service.
LKA assistance and/or LDW alerts
may occur due to tar marks,
shadows, cracks in the road,
temporary or construction lane
markings, or other road
imperfections. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not need
service. Turn LKA off if these
conditions continue.
