Lane Sway Warning
Lane Sway Warning detects wandering or drifting within the lane, and warns the driver.
When the lane sway warning activates, 3 or 6 (depending on the model) short audible beeps
can be heard, the steering wheel indicator flashes, the right/left lane indicators flash on the
combination meter, and a “Stay Alert” message is displayed. Wandering detection is based on
several minutes of driving data and will not be detected immediately when it occurs. In addition,
the warning may continue for some time even after wandering stops. The Lane Sway Warning
System may also issue a warning when the driver is tired, not concentrating on the road, or
otherwise not paying adequate attention to driving. This system activates only when the vehicle
speed is approximately 60 km/h (37 mph) or more.
