LDW System Operation: Notes

• The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system warns the driver when the vehicle is traveling close to either the left or the right of the traveling lane.
• The system monitors lane markers of the traveling lane using the LDW camera unit. When the LDW camera unit detects that the vehicle is traveling close to either the left or the right of the traveling lane, the LDW indicator lamp flashes and a chime sounds to alert the driver.
  NOTE: When activating turn signal, LDW system does not give a warning to the lane marker on the turn signal side.
• The LDW system can be turned on or off by pushing the LDW switch. When the system is on, the LDW system ON indicator illuminates.
• The LDW system has an automatic mode and manual mode.
