constant speed without depressing
the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 20 mph
(30 km/h).
If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a
speed.
Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or steep hills
up-hill or down-hill roads.✽
NOTICE

Driving your vehicle
This system detects the lane with a
sensor at the front windshield and
notifies you if it detects that your
vehicle leaves the lane. The LDWS does not make the
vehicle change lanes. It is the dri-
ver's responsibility to always check
the road conditions.
If the sensor cannot detect the lane or if the vehicle speed does not
exceed 38 mph (60 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 on the front
windshield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
Prevent damage to the LDWS sen- sor from water or any liquid.
Do not remove the LDWS parts and do not damage the sensor by
a strong impact.
Do not put objects that reflect light on the dash board.
Always check the road conditions because you may not hear the
warning chime because of audio
and external conditions.
The operation of the LDWS can be affected by several factors (includ-
ing environmental conditions). It is
the responsibility of the driver to
pay attention to the roadway and to
maintain the vehicle in it's lane at
all times.

gerous to make a large sudden
steering input in response to an
alert, since that could result in
loss of control.
