When Driving

Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)

     Lane  Departure  Warning  System  (LDWS) 

*

            The  LDWS  notifi es the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane.
  The system detects the white or yellow lines on the traffi c lane using the Forward Sensing 
Camera (FSC). If it determines that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane, it notifi es 
the driver by fl ashing the LDWS indicator light (green) and operating the LDWS warning 
sound.
  Refer to Forward Sensing Camera on page  4-63 .
  Use the LDWS when you drive the vehicle on roads with white or yellow lines.

WARNING

  Do not use the LDWS under the following conditions:

  The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions, 
resulting in an accident.

¾

  Driving on roads with tight curves.

¾

  Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).

  The functions of the LDWS have limitations:

  Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive with care. The system is not 
designed to compensate for a driver’s lack of cautions and if you rely too much on the 
LDWS it could lead to an accident. The driver is responsible for assuring lane changes and 
other maneuvers. Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling 
and the vehicle’s surroundings.
