Driving your vehicle
- Driving on a slope
The performance of FCA system
decreases while driving upward or
downward on a slope, not recogniz-
ing the vehicle in front in the same
lane.
It may unnecessarily produce the
warning message and the warning
alarm, or it may not produce the
warning message and the warning
alarm at all.
When FCA system suddenly recog-
nizes the vehicle in front while pass-
ing over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.
- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, FCA system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this situation, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.

Driving your vehicle
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system is
designed to detect the lane markers
on the road with a front view camera
at the front windshield, and assists
the driver’s steering to help keep the
vehicle in the lanes.When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-
ing, while applying a counter-steer-
ing torque, trying to prevent the vehi-
cle from moving out of its lane.

WARNING
The driver is responsible for
being aware of surroundings
and steering the vehicle for
safe driving practices.
Do not turn the steering wheel suddenly when the steering
wheel is being assisted by the
system.
LKA helps prevent the driver from moving out of the lane
unintentionally by assisting
the driver’s steering. However,
the system is just a conven-
ience function and the steer-
ing wheel is not always con-
trolled. While driving, the driv-
er should pay attention to the
steering wheel.

NOTICE
• Even though the steering is assist-
ed by the system, the driver may
control the steering.

- If you change lanes without the turn signal on, the steering wheel
might be controlled.
LKA can transition to steering assist mode when the car is near
the middle of the lane after the sys-
tem is turned on or the lane was
changed. LKA can not assist steer-
ing if the vehicle follows lane mark-
er too close continuously before
transition to steering assist mode.
The control of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is activated.
The steering will not be assisted when you drive fast on a sharp
curve.
WARNING
The LKA system is a supple-mental system only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
safely steer the vehicle and to
maintain it in its lane.
Even though the steering is assisted by the system, the
driver may control the steer-
ing wheel.
Turn off the LKA system and drive without using the sys-
tem in the following situa-
tions:
- In bad weather
- In bad road conditions
- When the steering wheelneeds to be controlled by the
driver frequently.
