•Your vehicle is under the activationspeed.
•The turn indicator is active.
•Your vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver.
•The road has no or poor lane markingsin the camera field-of-view.
•The camera is obscured or unable todetect the lane markings due toenvironmental conditions (significant sunangles, shadows, snow, heavy rain orfog), traffic conditions (following a largevehicle that is blocking or shadowing thelane), or vehicle conditions (poorheadlamp illumination).
See Troubleshooting for additionalinformation.
Green: Indicates that the system is availableor ready to provide a warning or intervention,on the indicated side(s).
Yellow: Indicates that the system is providingor has just provided a lane keeping aidintervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is providingor has just provided a lane keeping alertwarning.
The system can be temporarily suppressedat any time by the following:

Troubleshooting
Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markings on the road?
Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature
Sun is shining directly into the camera lens
Quick intentional lane change
Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
The last Alert warning or Aid intervention occurred a short time ago
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)
Rapid transition from light to dark or vice versa
Sudden offset in lane markings
ABS or AdvanceTrac activation
Camera blockage due to dirt, grime, fog, frost or water on the windshield
Driving too close to the vehicle in front of you
Transitioning between no lane markings to lane markings or vice versa
Standing water on the road

Adaptive Learning
The electronic power steering systemadaptive learning helps correct roadirregularities and improves overall handlingand steering feel. It communicates with thebrake system to help operate advancedstability control and accident avoidancesystems. Additionally, whenever the batteryis disconnected or a new battery installed,you must drive your vehicle a short distancebefore the system relearns the strategy andreactivates all systems.
Adaptive Steering (If Equipped)
Note:The adaptive steering system hasdiagnostic checks that continuously monitorthe system. If a fault is detected a messagedisplays in the information display. If a redwarning message displays, stop your vehicleas soon as it is safe to do so. The messagemay clear if the fault is no longer present. Ifan adaptive steering system warningmessage appears each time you start yourvehicle, have the system checked as soonas possible.
The adaptive steering system continuallychanges the steering ratio with changes tovehicle speed, optimizing the steeringresponse in all conditions.
The adaptive steering system is designedwith a locking device. While the lock isengaged, your vehicle returns to a fixedsteering ratio. You may also notice a soundwhen you start or turn off your vehicle as thelock is disengaged or engaged. If yourvehicle loses electrical power or detects afault while you are driving, the lock engagesand you are able to continue steering. Duringthis time it is possible that the steering wheelmay not be straight when the vehicle isdriving straight ahead. During this time youmay notice that the steering wheel anglerequired to steer the vehicle may bedifferent. Extreme operating conditions mayalso cause the lock to engage. This strategyprevents overheating and permanentdamage to the adaptive steering system.Typical steering and driving maneuvers allowthe system to cool and return to normaloperation.

Note:If you perceive Pre-Collision Assistalerts as being too frequent or disturbing,then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,though the manufacturer recommends usingthe highest sensitivity setting where possible.Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewerand later system warnings.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist Settings
You can adjust the Pre-Collision Assistsettings by using the information displaycontrol. See General Information (page 118).
If required, you can switch active braking offusing the information display control. SeeGeneral Information (page 118).
Note:Active braking automatically turns onevery time you switch the ignition on.
Blocked SensorsIf a message regarding a blocked sensor orcamera appears in the information display,the radar signals or camera images areobstructed. The radar sensor is locatedbehind a fascia cover near the driver side ofthe lower grille. With an obstructed radar,the Pre-Collision Assist system does notfunction and cannot detect a vehicle ahead.With the front camera obstructed, thePre-Collision Assist system does not respondto pedestrians or stationary vehicles and thesystem performance on moving vehiclesreduces. The following table lists possiblecauses and actions for when this messagedisplays.
