maintain proper vehicle position
within the lane, or vehicle
damage, injury, or death could
occur. Always keep the
windshield, headlamps, and
camera sensors clean and in
good repair. Do not use LKA in
bad weather conditions or on
roads with unclear lane markings,
such as construction zones.
Warning
Using LKA while towing a trailer
or on slippery roads could cause
loss of control of the vehicle and
a crash. Turn the system off.
How the System Works
LKA uses a camera sensor installed
on the windshield ahead of the
rearview mirror to detect lane
markings. It may provide brief
steering assist if it detects an
unintended lane departure. It may
further provide an audible alert or
the driver seat may pulse indicating
that a lane marking has been
crossed.
To turn LKA on and off, press
on the center console. If equipped,
the indicator light on the button
comes on when LKA is on and turns
off when LKA is disabled.

Take Steering

continuously steer the vehicle.

steering, an alert and chime may be
A provided. Steer the vehicle to
dismiss. LKA may become
temporarily unavailable after

When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The system performance may be
affected by:
Close vehicles ahead.
Sudden lighting changes, such
as when driving through tunnels.
Banked roads.
Roads with poor lane markings,
such as two-lane roads.
If the LKA system is not functioning
properly when lane markings are
clearly visible, cleaning the
windshield may help.
A camera blocked message may
display if the camera is blocked.
