minimum of one tracked lane marking.
Note: The system will only operate above
vehicle speeds of approximately 65 km/h
(40 mph).
A sensor is mounted behind the interior
rear view mirror. It continuously monitors
conditions to alert you of unintentional
lane drifting at high speeds.
The system will automatically detect and
track the lane markings on the road. If it
detects that the vehicle is unintentionally
drifting towards the lane boundaries then
a visual warning will be displayed in the
information display. There is also a warning
given in the form of a vibration felt through
the steering wheel.
If the sensor becomes blocked the
system may not function.
Lane markings may not always be
properly tracked by the sensor. Other
structures or objects may sometimes
be incorrectly detected as a lane marking,
resulting in a false or missed warning.
CAUTIONS
In cold and severe weather conditions
the system may not function. Rain,
snow, spray and large contrasts in
lighting can all influence the sensor.
The system will not operate if the
sensor cannot track the road lane
markings.
