Warning (Continued)
or death could occur. Always keep
the windshield, headlamps, and
camera sensors clean and in good
repair. Do not use LDW in bad
weather conditions.
How the System Works
The LDW camera sensor is on the
windshield ahead of the rearview
mirror.
To turn LDW on and off, press
@on
the center stack to the left of the
infotainment screen. The control
indicator will light when LDW is on.
When LDW is on,@is green if LDW
is available to warn of a lane
departure. If the vehicle crosses a
detected lane marking without using the turn signal in that direction,
@
changes to amber and flashes.
Additionally, there will be three beeps,
or the driver seat will pulse three
times, on the right or left, depending
on the lane departure direction.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The system may not detect lanes as
well when there are:
.
Close vehicles ahead.
. Sudden lighting changes, such as
when driving through tunnels.
. Banked roads.
If the LDW system is not functioning
properly when lane markings are
clearly visible, cleaning the windshield
may help.
LDW alerts may occur due to tar
marks, shadows, cracks in the road,
temporary or construction lane
markings, or other road imperfections.
This is normal system operation; the
vehicle does not need service. Turn
LDW off if these conditions continue.
Fuel
Use the recommended fuel for proper
vehicle maintenance.
For the LFX 3.6L V6 engine, use
unleaded petrol with a posted octane
rating of 91 RON or higher, otherwise
an audible knocking noise may be
heard. If heavy knocking is heard
when using gasoline rated at 91 RON
or higher, the engine needs service.
For the LF3 3.6L V6 twin turbo engine,
use unleaded petrol with a posted
octane rating of 95 RON or higher.
If the octane is less than 95 RON, the
engine could be damaged and repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. If heavy knocking is heard
when using petrol rated at 95 RON
octane, the engine needs service.
