Lane Departure Warning
Controls
The Lane Guidance lane departure warning system
monitors the vehicle's position within the roadway
lane markings and sounds a warning in the cab
when the vehicle is about to stray outside its lane,
provided the turn signal is not on and the vehicle is
traveling at least 37 mph (60 km/h). The system in-
cludes a digital camera mounted high near the center
of the windshield inside the cab and speakers that
emit a sound similar to a rumble strip. The sound is
made on the side of the vehicle it's straying toward,
prompting the driver to respond and steer away from
the sound and back into the center of the correct
lane.

WARNING
The lane departure warning system is intended
only as an aid for a conscientious and alert
driver. The system may not indicate lane depar-
tures under certain conditions. Read carefully the
information in this manual to understand the cir-
cumstances under which this system may not
provide adequate lane departure warnings. Do
not rely solely on the system to safely operate
the vehicle. The system does not warn of all pos-
sible hazards. For example, the system cannot
prevent an accident if the driver is impaired or
not driving safely.
The lane departure warning system is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving procedures.
Failure to drive safely and use the system prop-
erly could result in personal injury and/or death
and severe property damage.
The lane departure warning system powers up each
time the ignition is turned to ON. The system con-
ducts a self test, and initiates test tones from the left
speaker and then the right speaker. Once the vehicle
is started and the system is ready, the LED in the
switch illuminates.
Press the LANE ALERT switch to temporarily disable
the lane departure warning system. Some vehicles
are equipped with a timer that automatically re-
enables the warning system after 15 minutes. On all
other vehicles, the warning system will remain dis-
abled until the driver enables the system by pressing
the LANE ALERT switch again, or the ignition is
cycled off and then on.
When the vehicle approaches the lane markings on
either side, the system sense the activation of a turn
signal. If a turn signal has not been activated, the
system initiates the audible warning to alert the driver
that the vehicle is departing its current lane of travel.
The LANE SRCHNG warning light illuminates to indi-
cate the system is not fully functional. When the
warning light is on, the system audible alert may not
indicate a lane departure. Conditions that can cause
the warning light to illuminate include:
The system is unable to detect lane markings.
Vehicle speed is less than 37 mph (60 km/h).
A system problem is detected.
