9-58 Driving and Operating
When the vehicle is started, the
LDW indicator on the instrument
cluster will come on briefly.
If LDW is on and the vehicle is
traveling at 56 km/h (35 mph) or
greater, the LDW indicator will
appear green if the system detects
a left or right lane marking. If the
vehicle crosses a detected lane
marking without using the turn
signal, this indicator will change to
amber and flash. In addition, three
beeps will be sounded from the left
or right speaker, or the Safety Alert
Seat will pulse three times on either
the left or right side of the seat,
depending on the lane departure
direction.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
If the system is on and the vehicle
speed is 56 km/h (35 mph) or
greater, and the LDW symbol does
not appear:
.
The lane markings on the road
may not be seen.
.
The camera sensor may be
blocked by dirt, snow, or ice.
.
The weather may be limiting
visibility.
This is normal operation; the vehicle
does not need service.
If the LDW camera system does not
seem to operate properly, cleaning
the outside of the windshield in front
of the camera sensor may correct
the issue.
A damaged windshield can also
impact the performance of the
system. If the windshield is
damaged, it should be replaced.
Lane markings may not be detected
on curves, highway exit ramps,
or hills; or due to poor visibility.

WARNING
If the LDW camera sensor is
blocked by dirt, snow, or ice,
or if the headlamps are not
cleaned or properly aimed,
or if the windshield is dirty or
damaged, it may not detect the
lanes ahead. LDW may not help
avoid a crash under these
conditions. Keep the headlamps
cleaned and properly aimed and
the windshield clean.
LDW warnings may occur due to tar
marks, shadows, cracks in the road,
or other road imperfections. This is
normal system operation; the
vehicle does not need service.
