Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
ALWAYS check the road con-
ditions. The LDWS does not
make the vehicle change
lanes or stay in the lanes.
Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly if the LDWS warns
that your vehicle is leaving the
lane.
If the camera cannot detect
the lane or if the vehicle speed
does not exceed 44 mph
(70 km/h), the LDWS will not
be able to notify you if the
vehicle leaves the lane.
If your vehicle has window tint
or other types of coating and
accessory on the front wind-
shield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not allow any water or liq-
uid to contact the LDWS cam-
era or the camera may be
damaged.
Do not remove the LDWS
parts and do not damage the
camera by a strong impact.
Do not put objects that reflect
light on the dash board.
The operation of the LDWS
can be affected by several fac-
tors (including environmental
conditions). It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to pay
attention to the roadway and
to maintain the vehicle in its
lane at all times.
