Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)
LDW may help avoid crashes due to
unintentional lane departures. It may
provide a warning if the vehicle is
crossing a lane without indicating.
LDW uses a camera sensor to
detect the lane markings. It only
operates at speeds of 56 km/h (35
mph) or greater.
When the vehicle crosses a
detected lane marking, the LDW
indicator will flash and either three
beeps will be sounded from the left
or right, or three Safety Alert Seat
pulses will occur on the left or right
side of the seat, depending on the
lane departure direction. LDW will
not warn if the indicator is on or if a
sharp manoeuvre is made.

WARNING
The LDW system is an aid to help
the vehicle stay in the driving
lane. It does not steer the vehicle.
The LDW system may not:

a crash.
. Detect lane markings under
bad weather conditions or if
the windscreen is dirty.
. Detect lane markings and will
not detect road edges.
. Warn that the vehicle is
crossing a lane marking if the
system does not detect the
lane marking.
If LDW only detects lane
markings on one side of the road,
it will only warn you when
departing the lane on the side
where it has detected a lane
