The Lane Departure Warning (hereinafter referred to only as system) helps to
keep the vehicle between the boundary lines of a lane.
The system recognises the boundary lines of the lane using a sensor
When the vehicle approaches a detected line between lanes, the system
makes a light movement of the steering wheel in the opposite direction to the
boundary line. This corrective steering intervention can be manually overrid-
den at any time.
WARNING
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
■
be observed » page 120, in chapter Introduction.
The system can keep the vehicle within the lane. However, it does not
■
steer the vehicle for you. The driver retains full responsibility for steering at
all times.
Some objects or markings on the road can be recognised as the boundary
■
lines - an erroneous steering intervention may be the result.
WARNING
The system may not be able to recognise the boundary line, or recognise it
incorrectly, for example, in the following situations.
When visibility is poor, (e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall).
■
When driving around "sharp" bends.
■
The sensor is blinded by the sun or oncoming traffic.
■
The field of view of the sensor is limited by an obstacle or a preceding ve-
■
hicle.
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects in front of the sensor on the wind-
screen to avoid impairing the functions of the system.
Notice
The system is designed for driving on motorways and roads with adequate
■
longitudinal markings.
The system can detect both continuous and broken lines.
