The Driver Attention Monitor cannot always detect if the driver is tired or inattentive.
Regardless of the system's feedback, if you are feeling tired, stop in a safe location and rest
for as long as needed.
■ The Driver Attention Monitor resets when:
• The power system is turned off.
• The driver unfastens the seat belt and opens the door while the vehicle is stopped.
■ For the Driver Attention Monitor to function:
• The vehicle must be travelling above 40 km/h (25 mph).
• The electric power steering (EPS) system indicator must be off.
The bars on the driver information interface remain greyed out unless the Driver Attention
Monitor is functioning.
■ Depending on driving conditions or other factors, the Driver Attention Monitor
may not function in the following circumstances:
• The steering assist function of the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) is active.

• It is windy.
• The driver is frequently operating the vehicle in an assertive manner such as changing
lanes or accelerating.

If the number of bars drops to one, a beep will sound,
the steering wheel will vibrate, and the coffee cup will
turn to amber to warn the driver that he or she needs a
break as his or her attention level is too low.
If the coffee cup lights up in amber, stop in a safe
location and rest for as long as needed.
The amber coffee cup warning will disappear when the
left selector wheel is pressed or when the system has
determined that the driver is driving normally.
If the driver does not take a break and the monitor
continues to detect that the driver is very tired, the
coffee cup will light up in amber again after
approximately 15 minutes, accompanied by a beep and
steering wheel vibrations.
The warning does not appear when the travelling time
is 30 minutes or less.
