2. Lower display buttons
3. Dynamic driver assistance switch (forvehicles without ProPILOT Assist)
4. ProPILOT Assist switch (for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist)
LDP SYSTEM OPERATION
The LDP system operates above approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h). When the vehicle
approaches either the left or the right side of
the traveling lane, the steering wheel will vi-
brate and the LDP indicator (orange) on the
instrument panel will blink to alert the driver.
Then, the LDP system will automatically ap-
ply the brakes for a short period of time to
help assist the driver to return the vehicle to
the center of the traveling lane.
To turn on the LDP system, push the dynamic
driver assistance switch (for vehicles without
ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist) on
the steering wheel after starting the engine.
The LDP indicator (green) on the instrument
panel will illuminate. Push the dynamic driver
assistance switch (for vehicles without Pro-
PILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist switch
(for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist) on the
steering wheel again to turn off the LDP
system. The LDP indicator will turn off.

∙ When a sudden change in brightness oc-curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
While the LDP system is operating, you may
hear a sound of brake operation. This is nor-
mal and indicates that the LDP system is
operating properly.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
Condition A:
The warning and assist functions of the LDP
system are not designed to work under the
following conditions: ∙ When you operate the lane change signal and change the traveling lanes in the di-
rection of the signal. (The LDP system will
be deactivated for approximately 2 sec-
onds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
∙ When the vehicle speed lowers to less than approximately 37 mph (60 km/h).
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are satis-
fied, the warning and assist functions will
resume. Condition B:
The assist function of the LDP system is not
designed to work under the following condi-
tions (warning is still functional):
∙ When the brake pedal is depressed.
∙ When the steering wheel is turned as far as necessary for the vehicle to change
lanes.
∙ When the vehicle is accelerated during LDP system operation.
∙ When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) approach warning occurs.
∙ When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
∙ When driving on a curve at high speed.
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are satis-
fied, the LDP system application of the
brakes will resume. Condition C:
If the following messages appear in the ve-
hicle information display the LDP system will
be turned off automatically:
∙ “Not Available Poor Road Conditions”: When the VDC system (except Traction
Control System [TCS] function) or ABS
operates.
∙ “Currently not available”: When the VDC system is turned off.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
turn off the LDP system. Push the dynamic
driver assistance switch (for vehicles without
ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist) on
the steering wheel again to turn the LDP
system back on.

Illustration 3: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle is approaching a lane marker and a
vehicle is in the detection zone, the system
chimes a sound (three times), and the side
indicator light flashes. Then the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on one side to help
return the vehicle back to the center of the
driving lane.NOTE:

with a vehicle in the detection zone, the
other vehicle may not be detected.Overtaking another vehicle
Illustration 5: The side indicator light illumi-
nates if you overtake a vehicle and that ve-
hicle stays in the detection zone for approxi-
mately 3 seconds.
The radar sensors may not detect slower
moving vehicles if they are passed quickly.

tem chimes a sound (three times) and the side

side to help return the vehicle back to the
center of the driving lane.

Illustration 10: If the driver activates the turn
signal while another vehicle is in the detection
zone, then the side indicator light flashes and
a chime will sound twice.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the side
indicator light will flash but no chime will
sound when another vehicle is detected.Illustration 11: If the BSI system is on and
your vehicle approaches the lane marker
while another vehicle is in the detection zone,

will sound three times. Then, the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on the appropriate
side to help return the vehicle back to the
center of the driving lane.
NOTE:
∙ Illustration 12: The BSI system will not
operate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detec-
tion zone. In this case, only the BSW sys-
tem operates.
∙ BSI braking will not operate or will stop
operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions:
– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the vehicle is accelerated dur-
ing BSI system operation.

vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows the
vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the
throttle and applies the brakes (up to ap-
proximately 40% of vehicle braking power) if
necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approxi-
mately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

When the SET– switch is pushed under the
following conditions, the system cannot be
set.
A warning chime will sound and a message
will pop up:∙ When the VDC system is off (To use the ICC system, turn on the VDC system.
Push the ICC switch to turn off the ICC
system and reset the ICC switch by push-
ing the ICC switch again.)
For additional information about the
VDC system, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” in this section.
∙ When VDC is operating
∙ When a wheel is slipping (To use the ICC system, make sure the wheels are no lon-
ger slipping.)
1System set display with vehicle ahead
2System set display without vehicle ahead
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC sys-
tem maintains the set vehicle speed, similar to
standard cruise control, as long as no vehicle
is detected in the lane ahead. The ICC system
displays the set speed.
Vehicle detected ahead
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead,
the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by
controlling the throttle and applying the
brakes to match the speed of a slower vehicle ahead. The system then controls the vehicle
speed based on the speed of the vehicle
ahead to maintain the driver selected dis-
tance.
NOTE:
∙ The stop lights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system.
∙ When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the vehicle
ahead detection indicator comes on. The ICC
system will also display the set speed and
selected distance.
Vehicle ahead not detected
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead,
the ICC system gradually accelerates your
vehicle to resume the previously set vehicle
speed. The ICC system then maintains the set
speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off.
If a vehicle ahead appears during accelera-
tion to the set vehicle speed or any time the
ICC system is in operation, the system con-
trols the distance to that vehicle.
