Driving Aids
The lane markings are color coded as
follows:
Green: The system is ready to warn you
of any unintentional lane departure.
Red: Your vehicle is approaching or is
too close to the detected lane
boundary. Take immediate safe action
to reposition your vehicle.
Gray: The system will suppress the
relevant lane boundary.
Instances where a lane boundary may be
suppressed:
The sensor may not detect the lane
markings on the road.
You turn the direction indicator for that
side of your vehicle on.
If you apply direct steering, accelerate
fast or brake hard.
Your vehicle speed is outside the
operating limits.
If there is an anti-lock brake or stability
control intervention.
Narrow lane width.
If the lane markings in the display turn red
or you feel a vibration through the steering
wheel you must take immediate and safe
action to align your vehicle. Correct any
unintended lane drift immediately.

STEERING

To help prevent damage to the power
steering system:
Never hold the steering wheel at its
furthest turning points (until it stops)
for more than three to five seconds
when the engine is running.
Do not operate the vehicle with a low
power steering pump fluid level (below
the MIN mark on the reservoir).
