LDW SYSTEM OPERATION
The LDW system operates above approxi-
mately 45 MPH (70 km/h) and when the
lane markings are clear.
If the vehicle approaches either the left or
the right side of the traveling lane, the driver
assist system lane indicator (orange) in the
vehicle information display will blink and the
steering wheel will vibrate.
NOTE:
The LDW system is not designed to warn
when you operate the lane change signal
and change traveling lanes in the direction
of the signal. (The LDW system will become
operable again approximately 2 seconds
after the lane change signal is turned off.)

LDP SYSTEM OPERATION (if so
equipped)
The LDP system operates above approxi-
mately 45 MPH (70 km/h) and when the
lane markings are clear.
If the vehicle approaches either the left or
right side of the traveling lane, the driver
assist system lane indicator (orange) in the
vehicle information display will blink and the
steering wheel will vibrate. Then, the LDP
system will automatically assist the driver to
return the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane.

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 will not operate or will stop
operating and only the steering wheel
will vibrate under the following condi-
tions.
— When the steering wheel is turned as
far as necessary for the vehicle to
change lanes.
— When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed.

LDW/LDP SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the LDW and LDP systems. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations 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 is primarily intended
for use on well-developed freeways
or highways. It may not detect the
lane markers in certain roads, weath-
er or driving conditions.
. Do not use the LDP system under the
following conditions 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.

vated automatically. The “high cabin tem-
perature” warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display.
LDP system: If the vehicle is parked in direct
sunlight under high temperature conditions
(over approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then

BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 MPH (32 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light
illuminates.If the turn signal is then activated, the
system chimes (twice) and the side indicator
light flashes. The side indicator light con-
tinues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
NOTE:
.
The side indicator lights illuminate for a
few seconds when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
. The brightness of the side indicator
lights is adjusted automatically depend-
ing on the brightness of the ambient
light.
. If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn
signal, then only the side indicator light
flashes and no chime sounds. (See “BSW
driving situations” (P.5-44).)

BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the BSW system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
. The BSW system cannot detect all
vehicles under all conditions. .
The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when cer-
tain objects are present such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles, low height vehicles, or high ground
clearance vehicles.
— Oncoming vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the detec- tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop.
— A vehicle merging into an adja- cent lane at a speed approxi-
mately the same as your vehicle.
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
— A vehicle which your vehicle over- takes rapidly.
— A vehicle that passes through the detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensor’s detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When
driving in a narrow lane, the radar
sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
chime will sound and the “side radar ob-
struction” warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display
.
The system is not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog. The blocked
condition may also be caused by objects
such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar sensors.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the BSW
system are located near the rear bumper.
Always keep the area near the radar sensors
clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing
the radar sensors.
