Driving your vehicle
1106
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) System
WARNING
If all the conditions to activate LKA
are not satisfied, the system will
convert to LDW and warn the driver
only when the driver crosses the
lane markers. In this scenario, the
LDW system does not provide any
steering inputs into the vehicle for
you. Accordingly, you must take the
necessary steps to maintain control
of the vehicle and keep it within the
lanes.
If the driver takes hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while the LKA is activated, the sys
-
tem will warn the driver.
WARNING
䳜 Always have your hands on the
steering wheel while driving.
䳜 If you hold the steering wheel
with a light grip, the system may
also generate hands off warning
because LKA can treat the situa
-
tion as you do not grab the wheel.
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after
several seconds, the system will
only warn the driver when the driver
crosses the lane lines. In this sce
-
nario, the system does not provide
any steering inputs into the vehicle
for you. Accordingly, you must take
the necessary steps to maintain
control of the vehicle and keep it
within the lanes.
However, if the driver has their
hand
s on the steering wheel again,
the system will start controlling the
steering wheel.
WARNING
䳜 The LKA system is a supplemental
system only. It is the responsibil
-
ity of the driver to safely steer
the vehicle and to maintain it in its
lane.
䳜 Ev
en though the steering is
assisted
by the system, the driver
may control the steering wheel.
䳜 T
urn off the LKA system and drive
without using t
he system in the
following situations:
- In bad weather
- In bad road conditions
- When the steering wheel needs
to be
c
ontrolled by the driver
frequently.
䳜 Th
e steering wheel may feel
he
avier when the steering wheel
is assisted by the system than
when it is not.
