Setting the System Sensitivity

You can adjust how quickly the system intervenes in a dangerous situation. The system has two sensitivity levels which you can set using the information display.

System Warnings

A column of lane markings are displayed either side of the vehicle graphic

The lane markings are color coded as follows:

• Green: The system is ready to warn you of any unintentional lane departure.
• Yellow: The system will automatically apply a steering torque to align your vehicle path and correct any unintended lane drift.
• Red: Your vehicle is approaching or is too close to the detected lane boundary. The steering wheel will give a vibration warning. Take immediate safe action to reposition your vehicle.

Instances where a lane boundary may be suppressed:

• Lane markings on the road may not be detected by the sensor.
• You turn the direction indicator for that side of your vehicle on.
• If you apply direct steering, accelerate fast or brake hard.
• Your vehicle speed is outside the operating limits.
• If there is an anti-lock brake or stability control intervention.
• Narrow lane width.

Note: You can override the system at any time during its operation by turning the steering wheel.
