Lane Departure; Warning (Ldw); Lane Keep Assist (Lka) - Cadillac CTS Owner's Manual

236 DRIVING AND OPERATING
LCA may not always alert the driver to
vehicles in the next lane over,
especially in wet conditions or when
driving on sharp curves. The system
does not need to be serviced. The
system may light up due to guardrails,
signs, trees, shrubs, and other
non-moving objects. This is normal
system operation; the vehicle does not
need service.
LCA may not operate when the LCA
sensors in the left or right corners of
the rear bumper are covered with
mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in
heavy rainstorms. For cleaning
instructions, see Washing the
Vehicle under Exterior Care 0 308.
If the DIC still displays the system
unavailable message after cleaning
both sides of the vehicle toward the
rear corners of the vehicle, see your
dealer.
If the LCA displays do not light up
when moving vehicles are in the blind
zone or rapidly approaching that zone
and the system is clean, the system
may need service. Take the vehicle to
your dealer.

Lane Departure

Warning (LDW)

If equipped, LDW may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may provide a warning
if the vehicle is crossing a detected
lane marking without using a
indicator in the lane departure
direction. Since this system is part of
the Lane Keep Assist (LKA) system,
read the entire LKA section before
using this feature.

Lane Keep Assist (LKA)

If equipped, LKA may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may assist by gently
turning the steering wheel if the
vehicle approaches a detected lane
marking without using a indicator in
that direction. It may also provide a
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
system alert as the lane marking is
crossed. The LKA system will not
assist or provide an LDW alert if it
detects that you are actively steering.
Override LKA by turning the steering
wheel. LKA uses a camera to detect
lane markings between 60 km/h (37
mph) and 180 km/h (112 mph).
Warning
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
It may not keep the vehicle in the
lane or give a Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) alert, even if a lane
marking is detected.
The LKA and LDW systems
may not:
Provide an alert or enough
steering assist to avoid a lane
departure or crash.
Detect lane markings under
poor weather or visibility
conditions. This can occur if
the windscreen or headlights
are blocked by dirt, snow,
or ice, if they are not in
