LKA will stop controlling the
steering wheel after the hands
off alarm. If you drive with
your hands on the steering
wheel again, the control will
be activated again.

The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning System (LDW
system) or change the LKA system
mode between Standard LKA and
Active LKA from the User Settings
Mode on the LCD display.
The driver can choose them by plac-
ing the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion and by selecting ‘User Settings’,
‘Driver Assistance’, and ‘Lane
Keeping Assist’.
The system is automatically set to
Standard LKA.
Lane Departure
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
and acoustic warning when the sys-
tem detects the vehicle leaving the
lane. In this mode, the system will not
provide steering inputs. When the
vehicle’s front wheel contacts the
inside edge of lane line, LKA issues
the lane departure warning.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the
driver to keep the vehicle within the
lanes. It provides steering inputs
when the vehicle is about to deviate
from the lanes.
Active LKA
The active LKA mode provides more
frequent steering inputs in compari-
son with the Standard LKA mode.
