LDA (Lane Departure Alert)
While driving on a road that has lane markers, this system recognizes the
white lane markers using a camera as a sensor to alert the driver when the
vehicle deviates from its lane.
If the system judges that the vehicle ma y deviate from its lane, it alerts the
driver using beeping and indications on the multi-information display.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
■Temporary cancelation of the LDA system
When the lane departure warning function is activated. The lane departure warning
function will not operate again for a several seconds after it has been activated, even
if the vehicle leaves the lane again.
■The lane departure warning
It may be difficult to feel the sensory warning depending on the road conditions.
■After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA system may not be available and a warning message ( P. 771) will be dis-
played for a while after driving has started. When the temperature in the cabin
decreases and the temperature around the camera sensor ( P. 2 6 3 ) b e c o m e s s u i t -
able for its operation, the functions will begin to operate.
■Conditions in which the function may not operate correctly
In the following conditions, the LDA system may not operate, or it may not be possi-
ble to ensure adequate performance. Also, the camera sensor may be unable to rec-
ognize lane markers causing the lane departure warning function to operate
incorrectly. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
●When driving through an area with no lane markers, such as a tollbooth, a crossing
or before a ticket checkpoint
●When driving on a sharp curve
●When lane markers are extremely narrow or extremely wide
●When the vehicle leans to one side an unusual amount due to a heavy load or
improper tire inflation pressure
●When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
extremely short
●When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the system to
recognize compared to white markers.)
●When the lane markers are broken, “Botts’ dots”, “Raised pavement marker” or
stones
●When the lane markers are on a curb etc.
●When lane markers are obscured or pa rtially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
●When there are shadows on the road running parallel with lane markers, or if a
shadow covers the lane markers
●When driving on a particularly bright road surface, such as concrete
●When driving on a road surface that is bright due to reflected light
●When driving in a location where the light level changes rapidly, such as the
entrance to or exit from a tunnel

Driving
●When sunlight or the headlights of oncoming vehicles are shining directly into the
camera lens
●When driving on roads that are branching or merging
●When driving on a road surface that is wet due to rain, previous rainfall, standing
water, etc.
●When the vehicle experiences strong up-and-down motion such as when driving
on an extremely rough road or on a seam in the pavement
●When headlight brightness at nighttime is reduced due to dirt on the lenses, or
when the headlights are misaligned
●When driving on winding roads or roads that are uneven
●When driving on rough or unpaved roads
■When changing the tires
Depending on the tires used, sufficient performance may not be maintainable.
