Driving
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System
Alerts and helps to assist you when the sy stem detects a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected la ne markings and/or leaving the roadway
altogether.
The front camera behind the rearview mirror
monitors left and right lane markings (in white or
yellow). If your vehicle is getting too close to
detected lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system, in addition to a visual
alert, applies steering torque and alerts you with
rapid vibrations on the steering wheel, to help
you remain within the detected lane.
2 Customized Features P. 295
As a visual alert, the Lane Departure message
appears on the multi-information display.
If the system determines that its steering input
is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the
roadway, it may apply braking.
u Braking is applied only when the lane
markings are solid continuous lines.
The system cancels assistin g operations when you turn the steering wheel to avoid
crossing over detected lane markings.
If the system operates several times withou t detecting driver response, the system
beeps to alert you.
■How the System Works
1 Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has
limitations.
Over-reliance on the RDM system may result in a
collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the
vehicle within your driving lane.
The RDM system only alerts you when lane drift is
detected without a turn signal in use. The RDM
system may not detect all la ne markings or lane or
roadway departures; accu racy will vary based on
weather, speed and lane marker condition. It is
always your responsibilit y to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system.
2 Front Sensor Camera P. 459
The RDM system may not wo rk properly or may work
improperly under the certain conditions: 2 RDM Conditions and Limitations P. 457
There are times when you may not notice RDM
functions due to your opera tion of the vehicle, or
road surface conditions.

• The turn signals are off.
• The brake pedal is not depressed.
• The wipers are not in continuous operation.
• The vehicle is not accelera ting or braking, and the steering wheel is not being
turned.
• The system makes a determination that th e driver is not actively accelerating,
braking or steering.
■How the System Activates1 How the System Activates
The RDM system may automa tically shut off and the
indicator comes and stays on.
2 Indicators P. 74
