Lane Departure Warning (LDW)*
7-62 Starting and driving
7
E00635901023
If a problem occurs with the system, a visual
warning specific to the type of the problem is
given together with an audible alarm.
The alarm shown below is displayed if the
system becomes temporarily unable due to
too high a temperature of the LDW camera.
If the camera cools down below the predeter-
mined temperature, the system automatically
recovers the normal state.
The alarm shown below is displayed if LDW
becomes to a non-initialized state due to a
fault.
If this happens, please contact a MITSUBI-
SHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point for
inspection of the system.
NOTE
 If warning continues for about 10 seconds or
more, the system switches to the standby
mode before the warning stops.

NOTE
 The warning message can be cleared tempo-
rarily by setting the LDW switch to “OFF.”
LDW deactivation due to fault
CAUTION
 LDW has its performance limitations. Do not
over-rely on the system.
 LDW is not designed to lessen risks associ-
ated with not looking ahead carefully (atten-
tion drawn to something on the side,
absentmindedness, etc.) or poor visibility
caused by bad weather etc. Keep steering
your vehicle correctly and drive safely.
 The system may not be able to detect the lane
correctly in the following conditions. If
required, set the LDW switch to “OFF.”
•When driving on a road whose lane mark-
ings (white or yellow) are worn out or
smeared with dirt to an extent not recogniz-
able by the system.
•When lane markings are vague, typically
during a drive in the rain, snow or fog, or
when running against the sun.
•When the vehicle is moving in a place
where lane markings are interrupted, such
as a toll booth entrance and motorway junc-
tion.
•When running on a road portion with
incompletely removed old lane markings,
shadows, lingering snow, truck-like puddles
mistakable for lane markings (especially
after the rain when road surface is reflect-
ing light) or similar confusing factors.
•When running in a lane other than the cruis-
ing lane and passing lane.
•When running beside a closed lane section
or in a provisional lane in a traffic work
zone.
•When running in an extremely narrow lane.
•When the following distance between your
vehicle and a vehicle in front becomes
extremely reduced (especially when a
marking is hidden by a vehicle in front this
is running too close to the marking).
•When entering a junction or other point of
road where lanes are laid out complicatedly.
CAUTION
