Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
•
The LDWS is only the supple-
mental system. Pay attention
to the road conditions while
driving with the LDWS activat-
ed. It is the driver's responsi-
bility to control and steer the
vehicle.
•
ALWAYS check the road con-
ditions. The LDWS does not
make the vehicle change
lanes.
•
Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly if the LDWS warns
that your vehicle is leaving the
lane.
•
If the sensor cannot detect the
lane or if the vehicle speed
does not exceed 60 km/h (38
mph), the LDWS will not be
able to notify you if the vehi-
cle leaves the lane.

WARNING
(Continued)
•
If your vehicle has window tint
or other types of coating and
accessory on the front wind-
shield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
•
Do not allow any water or liq-
uid to contact the LDWS sen-
sor or the sensor may be dam-
aged.
•
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.
•
The operation of the LDWS
can be affected by several fac-
tors (including environmental
conditions). It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to pay
attention to the roadway and
to maintain the vehicle in its
lane at all times.
