Lane Departure Warning System

WARNING

The lane departure warning system (LDWS) feature 
is for information only and does not replace your 
responsibility to observe all road and driving 
conditions, abide by all traffic regulations, and use safe 
driving judgment at all times. The LDWS relies on the 
camera to provide warnings for lane markers and, as a 
result, may have limited functionality in low visibility 
conditions. For more information, go to 

Garmin.com/

warnings

.

The LDWS feature alerts you when the device detects 
you may be crossing a lane boundary unintentionally. 
For example, the device alerts you if you cross 
some solid painted lane boundaries or cross into an 
oncoming traffic lane. The LDWS feature provides 
alerts only when your vehicle speed exceeds 64 km/h 
(40 mph). The alert appears on the left or right side 
of the screen to indicate which lane boundary you 
crossed.

NOTE: 

For the best LDWS performance, you should set 

the Camera Placement option to indicate the location 
of your device in the vehicle.

Lane Departure Warning Performance Tips 

Several factors affect the performance of the lane 
departure warning system (LDWS). Some conditions 
may prevent the LDWS feature from detecting lane 
departures.

•  The LDWS feature provides alerts only when your 

vehicle speed exceeds 64 km/h (40 mph).

•  The LDWS feature does not provide alerts on certain 

types of roads, such as highway ramps or merging 
lanes.

•  The LDWS feature may not function properly if the 

camera is incorrectly aligned.

•  The LDWS feature may not function properly if the 

camera placement settings do not correctly indicate 
your vehicle height or the placement of your device 
in the vehicle 

(Setting the Camera Placement, page 

2)

.

•  The LDWS feature requires a clear, continuous view 

of the lane divider lines.

 Lane departures may not be detected when divider 

lines are obscured by rain, fog, snow, extreme 
shadows, sun or headlight glare, road construction, 
or any other visual obstruction.

 Lane departures may not be detected if lane 

divider lines are misaligned, missing, or heavily 
worn.

•  The LDWS feature may not detect lane departures 

on extremely wide, narrow, or winding roads.

Go Alert

The go alert plays a tone and displays an alert when 
stopped traffic ahead of your vehicle starts moving 
again. This alert appears only after the vehicle ahead 
has moved a substantial distance and your vehicle has 
remained stopped. This can be useful at stop lights 
or in traffic delays. This feature uses the GDR device 
camera to detect the stopped or moving vehicle and 
requires a clear view of the road.
