WHAT IS THE LANE-KEEPING SYSTEM
The lane-keeping system alerts you by providing temporary steering assistance or steering wheel vibration when it detects an unintended lane departure.
HOW DOES THE LANE KEEPING SYSTEM WORK
The lane keeping system uses a forward looking camera mounted on the windshield to monitor vehicle movement within the travel lane.
When the camera detects a drift out of the travel lane, the lane keeping system alerts the driver by vibrating the steering wheel, or aids the driver by providing a small steering input to move the vehicle back into the travel lane.
The driver can select one of three modes:
- Alert (If Equipped)
- Aid
- Alert + Aid
SWITCHING THE LANE KEEPING SYSTEM ON AND OFF
To activate the lane keeping system, press the button on the steering wheel.
To deactivate the lane keeping system, press the button again.
Note: When switching the system on or off a message appears in the instrument cluster display to show the status.
Note: The system stores the on or off setting until manually changed by you.
Note: If your vehicle has MyKey™, the system defaults to that setting.
SWITCHING THE LANE KEEPING SYSTEM MODE
The lane keeping system has different settings that you can view or adjust using the information display.
- Alert (If Equipped)
