LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
SYSTEM
System which detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings
on the ground (continuous or discontinuous
line).
A camera, fitted at the top centre of the

a warning if the vehicle drifts (speed higher
than 35 mph (60 km/h)).
This system operates to its full potential
above all when used on motorways and
main roads.

this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
message and confirmed by a
message in the screen.

dealer or a qualified workshop.
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance and responsibility on
the part of the driver.
