Hands-off warning
ONX4E070091
If you take your hands off the steering
wheel for several seconds, the "Place
hands on steering wheel" warning
message may appear on the instrument
cluster, and an audible warning sounds in
successive stages.
First stage: Warning message
Second stage: Warning message (red
steering wheel) and
audible warning
OTM070117N
If you do not have your hands on the
steering wheel after the hands-off
warning, the "Lane Following Assist
(LFA) canceled" warning message may
appear and Lane Following Assist is
automatically canceled.
WARNING
Always safely steer your vehicle and
maintain the position of your vehicle in
its lane.
To prevent serious injury or death:
ś
Always have your hands on the
steering wheel while driving.
ś
Lane Following Assist may not steer if
the steering wheel is held too tightly,
or the steering wheel is turned too far
left or right.
ś
If the steering wheel is held very
loosely, the hands-off warning
message may appear because
the Lane Following Assist may not
recognize that you have your hands
on the steering wheel.
ś
The hands-off warning message may
appear late or not at all depending on
the road condition.
ś
If you attach objects to the steering
wheel, the hands-off warning may not
work properly.
