Lane Departure Warning
The lane departure warning causes the steering wheel to vibrate to warn the driver that
the vehicle is threatening to leave the current lane without driver intending it to do so.
The prerequisite for this function to work is the presence of road or lane markings that
can be recognized by the control unit based on an evaluation of the images recorded by
the forward facing video camera.
The system is therefore intended to assist the driver in case of a lapse of attention.
Nevertheless, the driver continues to bear full responsibility for the vehicle.
The system is designed to assist the driver on highways, major roads and well main-
tained country roads. Warnings are given, therefore, only at speeds of over 44 mph.
The driver activates the system using the lane departure warning button in the BEFAS
driver assistance control panel.
