WARNING

Do not rely solely on the LDA system. The LDA system does not drive the vehicle auto- matically, nor does it reduce the amount of care you need to take. As such, the driver
must always assume full responsibility fo r understanding his/her surroundings, for operating the steering wheel to correct the driving line, and for driving safely.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an accident.
■To avoid operating the LDA by mistake
Switch the LDA system off using the LDA switch when not in use.

Do not use the LDA system in any of the following situations.
Otherwise, the system may not function correctly and could result in an accident.
