System Settings
The system has three optional setting menus available. To view or adjust
them, select Settings > Vehicle Settings > Driver Assist > Lane Keeping
Sys in the left-hand instrument cluster display using the OK button on
the steering wheel. The last-known selection for each of these settings is
stored by the system. You do not need to readjust your settings each
time you turn on the system.
Mode: This setting allows the driver to select which of the system
features will be enabled and turned on when the button is pressed.
• Alert only – Provides a steering wheel vibration when an unintended
lane departure is detected.
• Aid only – Provides a steering input toward the lane center when an
unintended lane departure is detected.
• Alert + Aid
Sensitivity: This setting affects where in the lane a warning is provided
(e.g. the increased sensitivity setting will move the warning zones in
closer). This setting does not impact the aid mode.
• Normal
• Increased
Intensity: This setting affects the intensity of the steering wheel vibration
used for the alert mode. This setting does not impact the aid mode.
• Low
• Medium
• High
System Display
When the system is turned on, an overhead graphic of a vehicle
with lane markings will be displayed in the left-hand instrument
cluster display. If the aid mode is selected when the system is
switched on, arrows will be shown with the lane markings.
When the system is turned off, the lane marking graphics will not be
displayed.
Note: The overhead vehicle graphic may still be displayed if adaptive
cruise control is enabled.
