Driver Assistance Systems
Starting from the third acoustic signal
the system will emit a continuous
sound and a message on TFT display
will indicate to keep the center line.
NOTE:
• In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize any risks.
• The system is developed to work only
on the lines painted on the road
surfaces, but it may happen that
shadows, traces of old lines, road
edges, etc. are also interpreted as
such.
Being this function used to prevent
unintentional lane change/lane drift,
it will be temporary suppressed/
inhibited by a turn indicator
6 activation, therefore, graphic warning,
steering torque application and
vibration will be terminated. In these
conditions the graphics turn gray.
Function Description and
Operating Mode
The function intent is to prevent the
lane departure by warning the driver
through indication on the cluster and
if set applying steering torque and
vibration. The graphic intent is to
represent at the glance the system
knowledge of the lane in front of the
234
car, the system suppression status and
warning.
For this a simple colour code has been
adopted for each line (of the two
presented):
• Both grey lines means system enable,
not able to operate (suppression
condition present or lane detection
system not able to estimate properly
the lane);
• Left/right grey line: the lane
detection system is not able to detect
that specific lane boundary;
• Yellow line: there is a steering
torque intervention in progress that
tries to prevent a departure on that
side, in this situation the warning
should increase the driver attention
requiring him to properly handle the
situation;
• Yellow flashing line: the graphic is
shown whenever the system detects
a very imminent lane departure,
at this can be added torque and
steering vibration if configured by
the customer.
The white lines (one or both) indicates
that the corresponding lane boundary
is detected and the system is capable
to intervene on it.
Whenever the system is enabled there
will be graphic on the dedicated
screen of the "Driver Assist" page. This
graphic will be available in the form of
symbols (see detail in figure) in the top
left corner of the cluster screen.
An example of this screen, with only
LKA system activated and with LKA
and ACC systems activated, can be
found in the following figures.
In the first, only LKA system is
activated, steering torque in progress
to correct the trajectory towards the
lane center.
In the second LKA and ACC systems
are activated, car is crossing the
lane boundary, steering torque and
vibration if configured are in progress
when this graphic is shown.
