Lane Departure Warning
When vehicle speed is approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h) or more, this function warns the
driver if the system detects that the vehicle is likely to depart the traffic lane.
When Lane Departure Warning activates, a buzzer sounds 6 short beeps, and the area
around the lane indicator on the departing side flashes in yellow.
* The illustration depicts a vehicle departing the left lane.
WARNING
Lane Departure Warning will not operate in all conditions. It also will not auto-
matically return the vehicle to the original lane. If the driver relies only on the
Lane Departure Warning to keep the vehicle in the lane, lane departure may
occur, resulting in an accident.
The Lane Departure Warning activates when it detects lane markings. How-
ever, it is not a function which can detect the edge of a road (shoulders or
side ditches, etc.) and warn the driver.

cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi-
cle in front.
