signal lever is returned and the system detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle
is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system de termines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LAS & LDWS operation is temporarily canceled. The LAS
& LDWS becomes operational again when the system detects white (yellow) lane lines
while the vehicle is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time, the LAS &
LDWS may not operate.

operate the steering wheel operation assist and the warning for the lane line on the side
that is not being detected. The steering wheel operation assist and the warning is only for
a lane deviation on the side that is being detected.
When the system determines that the driver is driving the vehicle with his or her hands off
the steering wheel while the steering wheel operation assist is operating, and if the
condition continues several times within a certain period of time, the warning sound is
activated. The higher the number of times the steering wheel operation assist operates,
the longer the period of time the warning sound is activated.
The timing at which the lane departure warning is activated and the steering wheel
operation assist is performed varies.
The following settings for the LAS & LDWS can be changed. Refer to the Settings section
in the Mazda Connec t Owner's Manual.
