Lane Departure Warning System (Ldws) - Mazda CX-3 Owner's Manual

Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)

The LDWS system notifi es the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane.
The system detects the white or yellow lines on the traffi c lane using the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) and if it determines that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane, it notifi es
the driver using the active driving display (vehicles with active driving display), and by
fl ashing the LDWS warning light and activating the LDWS warning beep.
Use the LDWS when you drive the vehicle on roads with white or yellow lines.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera on page 4-179 .
The warning light illuminates when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on page 4-36 .
Do not use the LDWS under the following conditions:
The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions,
resulting in an accident.
Driving on roads with tight curves.
    
Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).
   
The functions of the LDWS have limitations:
Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive with care. The system is not
designed to compensate for a driver's lack of caution and if you rely too much on the
LDWS it could lead to an accident. The driver is responsible for assuring lane changes
and other manoeuvres. Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is
travelling and the vehicle's surroundings.
