Operation
The HAS system only operates when the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel.
If the system detects that the driver’s hands
have been removed from the steering wheel,
the system will alert the driver to place their
hands back on the steering wheel. Refer to
“System Status” in this section for further
information.
If the vehicle crosses the lane boundary, the
steering wheel will vibrate and the dedicated
screen will appear in the instrument cluster
display.
NOTE:
The HAS system may take up to five seconds
to turn on once all conditions are met. During
this time, a grey indicator light will appear on
the instrument cluster display and the system
will automatically activate as soon as all of the
conditions are met with no intervention from
the driver.
The following conditions must be met before
the HAS system turns on:
The HAS system must be enabled by
pushing the button on the steering wheel
The vehicle must be on a highway
ACC must be activated
