where the vehicle is being operated.
— You may fall below the warning threshold
briefly when passing or when quickly ap-
proaching a vehicle driving ahead. There is

Lane departure warning
General information
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
The lane departure warning can detect lane
marker lines within the limits of the system. If
you are approaching a detected lane marker and
it appears likely that you will leave the lane, the
system can warn you with corrective steering and
a steering wheel vibration, if necessary.
The system functions in the speed range of ap-
proximately 40 mph - 155 mph (65 km/h -
250 km/h).
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
and without side assist: Even if the system is
ready, it will not warn you if you activate a turn
signal before crossing the lane marker line. In
this case, it assumes that you are changing lanes
intentionally.
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
in combination with side assist: If the turn signal
is activated, the lane departure warning is ready,
and a lane change has been classified as critical
by the lane departure warning due to vehicles
traveling beside you or due to approaching
vehicles, then a noticeable corrective steering
movement will occur briefly before exiting the
lane. This will attempt to keep your vehicle in the
lane.

Z\ WARNING
Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
