Driving your vehicle Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
WARNING
If all the conditions to activate LKA
system are not satisfied, the sys
-
tem will convert to LDW and warn
the driver only when the driver
crosses the lane markers. In this
scenario, LDW system does not pro
-
vide 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.
Hands off warning message
while LKA system is activated.
If the driver takes hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while LKA system is activated, the
system 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 not grab bing 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
hands on the steering wheel again,
the system will start controlling the
steering wheel.
WARNING
䳜 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 Even though the steering is
assisted by the system, the driver
may control the steering wheel.
䳜 Turn off LKA system and drive
without using the system in the
following situations:
- In bad weather
- In bad road conditions
- When the steering wheel needs
to be controlled by the driver
frequently.
