Road Departure Mitigation System
Alerts and helps to assist you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings or the edge of the pavement,
or leaving the roadway altogether.

How the System Works
612
The front camera behind the rearview mirror
monitors left and right lane markings (in white
or yellow) and the outer edge of the
pavement (bordered by grass or gravel). If
your vehicle is getting too close to detected
lane markings or the outer edge of the
pavement (bordered by grass or gravel)
without a turn signal activated, the system, in
addition to a visual alert, applies steering
torque and alerts you with rapid vibrations on
the steering wheel, to help you remain within
the detected lane.
If the system determines that the vehicle is
about to veer off the edge of the pavement, it
will alert the driver with an audible warning
instead of steering wheel vibrations.

Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, the Road Departure
Mitigation system has limitations.
Over-reliance on the Road Departure Mitigation
system may result in a collision. It is always your
responsibility to keep the vehicle within your driving
lane.
The Road Departure Mitigation system only alerts you
when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in
use. The Road Departure Mitigation system may not
detect all lane markings or lane or roadway
departures; accuracy will vary based on weather,
speed and lane marker condition. It is always your
responsibility to safely operate the vehicle and avoid
collisions.
