an unintended lane departure. The system
detects and tracks the road lane markings
using a camera mounted behind the
interior mirror. The system only operates
when the vehicle speed is greater than
approximately
37 mph (60 km/h). You

can detect at least one lane marking or the
edge of the road.

one lane marking or the edge of the
road.
• You switch the direction indicator on.

adaptive learning helps correct road
irregularities and improves overall handling

the brake system to help operate advanced stability control and accident
avoidance systems. Additionally, whenever
the battery is disconnected or a new
battery installed, you must drive your
vehicle a short distance before the system
relearns the strategy and reactivates all
systems.
