LDP SYSTEM OPERATION (if so
equipped)
The LDP system operates above approxi-
mately 45 MPH (70 km/h) and the lane
markings are clear.
If the vehicle approaches either the left or
right side of the traveling lane, the LDW
indicator on the vehicle information display
will flash and a warning chime will sound.
Then, the LDP system will automatically
apply the brakes for a short period of time to
help assist the driver to return the vehicle to
the center of the traveling lane.
NOTE:
. The LDP system is not designed to work
when you operate the lane change signal
and change traveling lanes in the direc-
tion of the signal. (The LDP system will
become operable again approximately 2
seconds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
. The LDP braking assist will not operate
or will stop operating and only a warn-
ing chime will sound under the following
conditions.
— When the brake pedal is depressed.
— When the steering wheel is turned as
far as necessary for the vehicle to
change lanes. —
When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed while brake control assist is
provided.
— When the Intelligent Cruise Control
(ICC), Distance Control Assist (DCA),
Blind Spot Intervention
®(BSI), Blind
Spot Warning (BSW), Predictive For-
ward Collision Warning (PFCW) or
Forward Emergency Braking (FEB)
warnings sound.
— When the hazard warning flashers
are operated.
— When driving on a curve at a high
speed.
. While the LDP system is operating, you
may hear a sound of brake operation.
This is normal and indicates that the
LDP system is operating properly.

LDW/LDP (if so equipped) SYS-
TEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the LDW and LDP (if so equipped)
systems. Failure to operate the vehicle in
accordance with these system limita-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
. The system will not operate at speeds
below 45 MPH (70 km/h) or if it
cannot detect lane markers.
. The LDP system (if so equipped) is
primarily intended for use on well-
developed freeways or highways. It
may not detect the lane markers in
certain roads, weather or driving
conditions.
. Do not use the LDP system (if so
equipped) under the following condi-
tions as it may not function properly:
— During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow, etc.
— When driving on winding or un- even roads. — When there is a lane closure due
to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, non-stan-
dard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or sus-
pension parts.
— When you are towing a trailer or other vehicle.
. The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the LDW and LDP (if so
equipped) systems may not operate
properly.
— On roads where there are multi- ple parallel lane markers, lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly, yellow painted
lane markers, non-standard lane
markers, or lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where the discontinuedlane markers are still detectable.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects, such as sha-
dows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining after
road repairs. (The LDW and LDP
(if so equipped) systems could
detect these items as lane mar-
kers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When traveling close to the ve- hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if the aiming is not adjusted
properly. — When strong light enters the lane
camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the front
of the vehicle at sunrise or sun-
set.)
— When a sudden change in bright- ness occurs. (For example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)
. Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
Condition A
The warning and assist functions of the
LDW and LDP (if so equipped) systems are
not designed to work under the following
conditions:
.When you operate the lane change signal
and change the traveling lanes in the
direction of the signal. (The LDP system
(if so equipped) will be deactivated for
approximately 2 seconds after the lane
change signal is turned off.)
. When the vehicle speed lowers to less
than approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h). .
When the Blind Spot Intervention
®(BSI)
system (if so equipped) activates an
audible warning or brake control.
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are sa-
tisfied, the warning and assist functions will
resume.

.The radar sensors detect approach-
ing (moving) vehicles. The radar sen-
sors cannot detect every object such
as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals or child operated toy vehicles
— A vehicle that passing at speeds greater than approximately 15
MPH (24 km/h)
. The radar sensors may not detect
approaching vehicles in certain situa-
tions:
— Illustration a. When a vehicle parked next to you obstructs the
beam of the radar sensor.
— Illustration b. When the vehicle is parked in an angled parking space.
— Illustration c. When the vehicle is parked on inclined ground.
— Illustration d. When an approach- ing vehicle turns into your vehi-
cle’s parking lot aisle.
— Illustration e. When the angle formed by your vehicle and ap-
proaching vehicle is small.
. The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar sensors to
detect other vehicles: — Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build up on the
vehicle
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install acces-
sories or apply additional paint near
the radar sensors. These conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar
sensors to detect other vehicles.
. The sonar sensors detect stationary
objects behind the vehicle. The sonar
sensor may not detect:
— Small or moving objects
— Wedge-shaped objects
— Object close to the bumper (less than approximately 1 ft (30 cm))
— Thin objects such as rope, wire and chain, etc.
. The brake engagement by the BCI
system is not as effective on a slope
as it is on flat ground. When on a
steep slope the system may not
function properly.
. Do not use the BCI system under the
following conditions because the sys-
tem may not function properly. — When driving with a tire that is
not within normal tire conditions
(for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or sus-
pension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
