Dynamic cornering
LKA does not intervene in sharp left curves
In certain cases, LKA allows the vehicle to
cross marker lines without providing a vibra-
tion warning or steering assistance, for exam-
ple, during dynamic cornering as shown in
the illustration where the driver's view of the
road and traffic conditions make this possi-
ble.
Limitations
The camera used by LDW has the same limi-
tations as the human eye. See page 179 for
more information about the camera's limita-
tions.
NOTE
In certain cases, it may be difficult for LKA
to assist the driver correctly. In the follow-
ing conditions, it may be preferable to turn
LKA off:
•
Road construction areas
•
Winter road conditions
•
Poor road surfaces
•
A very sporty driving style
•
Bad weather conditions with poor visi-
bility
WARNING
Hands on the steering wheel: In order for
LKA to function correctly, the driver's
hands have to be on the steering wheel,
which LKA monitors steadily. If this is not
the case, the driver will be alerted by a text
message to actively steer the vehicle.
If this is not done, LKA will go into standby
mode and will remain disengaged until the
driver begins to actively steer the vehicle
again.
