Small Vehicles And/Or Not Aligned To The Lane
The system is not able to detect the presence of vehicles that are in front of the car but
placed outside the field of action of the radar sensor and could therefore not react in
the presence of small vehicles such as bicycles or motorcycles
.
Lane Changing Of Other Vehicles
Vehicles that suddenly change lane, while standing in the traffic lane of their car and in-
side the field of action of the radar sensor may cause the intervention of the system
.
Passing Of Vehicles In An Oncoming Intersection
The system could temporarily react to a vehicle that crossed the range of the radar sen-
sor, in an oncoming intersection
.
LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED
LaneSense Operation
The LaneSense system is operational at speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below
112 mph (180 km/h)
.
The LaneSense system uses a forward looking camera to detect
lane markings and measure vehicle position within the lane boundaries .
When both lane markings are detected and the driver unintentionally drifts out of the
lane (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning in the form
of torque applied to the steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain within the lane
boundaries
.
If the driver continues to unintentionally drift out of the lane, the LaneSense
system provides a visual warning through the instrument cluster display to prompt the
driver to remain within the lane boundaries
.
The driver may manually override the haptic warning by applying torque into the steering
wheel at any time
.
When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver unintentionally drifts across
the lane marking (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a visual warning
through the instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to remain within the lane
.
When only a single lane marking is detected, a haptic (torque) warning will not be pro-
vided
.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met, the LaneSense system will monitor if the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel and provides an audible warning to the driver
when the driver’s hands are not detected on the steering wheel
. The system will cancel if
the driver does not return their hands to the wheel
.
