LDA (Lane Departure
Alert)
*
When driving on highways and
freeways with white (yellow)
lane lines, this function alerts
the driver when the vehicle
might depart from its lane or
course
*
.
The LDA system recognizes
white (yellow) lane lines or a
course
*
using the front cam-
era. Additionally, it detects pre-
ceding vehicles using the front
camera and radar.
*
: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass,
soil, or a curb
■ Before using LDA system
● Do not rely solely upon the LDA
system. The LDA system does not
automatically drive the vehicle or
reduce the amount of attention that
must be paid to the area in front of
the vehicle. The driver must always
assume full responsibility for driving
safely by paying careful attention to
the surrounding conditions and
operating the steering wheel to cor-
rect the path of the vehicle. Also,
the driver must take adequate
breaks when fatigued, such as from
driving for a long period of time.
● Failure to perform appropriate driv-
ing operations and pay careful
attention may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
● When not using the LDA system,
use the LDA switch to turn the sys-
tem off.
■ Situations unsuitable for LDA
system
In the following situations, use the
LDA switch to turn the system off.
Failure to do so may lead to an acci-
dent, resulting in death or serious
injury.
● Vehicle is driven on a snow-cov-
ered road.
● White (yellow) lines are difficult to
see due to rain, snow, fog, dust,
etc.
● A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are
equipped.
● When tires of a size other than
specified are installed.
