WARNING
• The steering wheel may not be
assisted if the steering wheel is held
very tight or the steering wheel is
steered over a certain degree.
• Lane Keeping Assist does not operate
at all times. It is the responsibility of
the driver to safely steer the vehicle
and to maintain the vehicle in its
lane.
• The hands–off warning message
may appear late depending on road
conditions. Always have your hands
on the steering wheel while driving.
• If the steering wheel is held very
lightly, the hands–off warning
message may appear because the
system may not recognize that the
driver has their hands on the steering
wheel.
• If you attach objects to the steering
wheel, the hands-off warning may
not work properly.
Information

functions in the infotainment system,
refer to “Vehicle Settings” section in
