Driving your vehicle
If vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h) and the system detects lane
markers, the color changes from
gray to white. If your vehicle speed exceeds 40
mph (64 km/h) and LKA system
button is ON, the system is
enabled. If your vehicle departs
from the projected lane in front of
you, LKA system operates as fol-
lows:
1. A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane mark-
er in the cluster LCD display will
blink depending on which direction
the vehicle is veering.2. LKA system will help control the
vehicle's steering to prevent the
vehicle from crossing the lane
marker in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h)
- The system detects both lane
markers
- When driving, the vehicle is locat-
ed between both lanes normally.
- The steering wheel is not turned
suddenly.
When lanes are detected and all the
conditions to activate LKA system
are satisfied, a LKA system indicator
light ( ) will change from white to
green. This indicates that LKA sys-
tem is in the ENABLED state and the
steering wheel will be controlled.

Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while LKA system is activated, the
system will warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held very light-
ly the message may still appear
because LKA system may not recog-
nize that the driver has their hands on
the wheel.
Driver's hands not detected. LKA
system is disabled temporarily
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", the system will not control
the steering wheel and warn the driv-
er only when the driver crosses the
lane markers.
However, if the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel again, the sys-
tem will start controlling the steering
wheel.

reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road.
The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare.
There is not enough distance
between you and the vehicle in
front to be able to detect the lane
marker or the vehicle ahead is driv-
ing on the lane marker.
Road surface is not evenness. Driving on a steep grade, over a
hill, or when driving on a curved
road.
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The surrounding of the inside rear
view mirror temperature is high
due to direct sunlight, etc.
When front visibility is poor

System description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW)
Blind-Spot Collision Warning system
uses radar sensors in the rear
bumper to monitor and warn the driv-
er when it detects an approaching
vehicle in the driver's blind spot area.
1) Blind-Spot Area
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to vehicle speed.
Note that if your vehicle is traveling
much faster than the vehicles around
you, the warning will not occur.2) Closing at high speed
BCW system will alert you when it
detects a vehicle is approaching in
an adjacent lane at a high rate of
speed. If the driver activates the turn
signal when the system detects an
oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert.
