Driving
Precautions While Driving
Avoid driving in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the power
system or driveline, or caus e electrical component failure.
■In Rain1Precautions While Driving
NOTICE
Do not select a shift button while pressing the
accelerator pedal.
NOTICE
The following can damage the rear frames and rear
suspensions. Be careful when driving.
•Backing up the vehicle into a space with a parking
block or road shoulder
•Driving up or down to a different surface level
(such as a road shoulder)
•Driving on a road with potholes
NOTICE
If you repeatedly turn the steering wheel at an
extremely low speed, or hold the steering wheel in
the full left or right position for a while, the electric
power steering (EPS) system heats up. The system
goes into a protective mode, and limits its
performance. The steering wheel becomes harder
and harder to operate. Once the system cools down,
the EPS system is restored.
Repeated operation under these conditions can
eventually damage the system.
If the power mode is set to ACCESSORY while
driving, the power system will shut down and all
steering and brake power a ssist functions will stop,
making it difficult to control the vehicle.

uuWhen Driving uRoad Departure Mitigation (RDM) System
Continued
Driving
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System
Alerts and helps to assist you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings and/or leaving the roadway
altogether.
The front camera behind the rearview mirror
monitors left and right lane markings (in white
or yellow). If your vehicl e is getting too close to
detected lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system, in addition to a visual
alert, applies steering torque and alerts you
with rapid vibrations on the steering wheel, to
help you remain within the detected lane.
2 Customized Features P. 302
As a visual alert, the Lane Departure
message appears on the driver information
interface.
If the system determines that its steering input
is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the
roadway, it may apply braking. u Braking is applied only when the lane
markings are solid continuous lines.
The system cancels assisting operations wh en you turn the steering wheel to avoid
crossing over detected lane markings.
If the system operates several times with out detecting driver response, the system
beeps to alert you.
■How the System Works
1 Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has
limitations.
Over-reliance on the RDM system may result in a
collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the
vehicle within your driving lane.
The RDM system only alerts you when lane drift is
detected without a turn signal in use. The RDM
system may not detect all la ne markings or lane or
roadway departures; accu racy will vary based on
weather, speed and lane marker condition. It is
always your responsibilit y to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system.
2 Front Sensor Camera P. 385
The RDM system may not wo rk properly or may work
improperly under the certain conditions: 2 RDM Conditions and Limitations P. 389
There are times when you may not notice RDM
functions due to your opera tion of the vehicle, or
