The current assessment of your alertness is
within a typical range.
E131359
The current assessment of your alertness
indicates that you should rest as soon as
safely possible.
The status bar will travel from left to right as
the calculated alertness level decreases. As
the rest icon is approached the color turns
from green to yellow to red. The yellow
position indicates the first warning is active
and the red position indicates the second
warning is active.
Note: If you have recently received a
warning; you should consider resting, even
if the current assessment is within the typical
range.
Note: If the camera sensor cannot track the
road lane markings or if your vehicle speed
drops below approximately 40 mph
(64 km/h), the alertness level will change to
grey for a short time and the information
display will inform you that the system is
unavailable.
Resetting the System
You can reset the system by either:
•
Switching the ignition off and on.
•
Stopping the vehicle and then opening
and closing the driver’s door.

WARNINGS
The system is designed to aid the
driver. It is not intended to replace your
attention and judgment. You are still
responsible to drive with due care and
attention.
Always drive with due care and
attention when using and operating the
controls and features on your vehicle.
WARNINGS
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening, if required.
Failure to take care may result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, serious personal
injury or death.
In cold and severe weather conditions
the system may not function. Rain,
snow and spray can all limit sensor
performance.
The system will not operate if the
sensor cannot track the road lane
markings.
The sensor may incorrectly track lane
markings as other structures or objects.
This can result in a false or missed warning.
Large contrasts in outside lighting can
limit sensor performance.
The system may not operate properly
if the sensor is blocked. Keep the
windshield free from obstruction.
If damage occurs in the immediate area
surrounding the sensor, have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
