356 Driving and Operating
Lane Keep
Assist (LKA)
If equipped, LKA may help
avoid crashes due to
unintentional lane departures.
This system uses a camera to
detect lane markings. LKA may
be ready to assist at speeds
between 60 km/h (37 mph) and
180 km/h (112 mph). On some
vehicles, the system will
instead operate above
50 km/h (31 mph). LKA may
assist by gently turning the
steering wheel if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane
marking. It may also provide a
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) alert if the vehicle
unintentionally crosses a
detected lane marking. This
system is not intended to keep
the vehicle centered in the
lane. LKA will not assist or
alert if the turn signal is active
in the direction of lane
departure, or if it detects that
you are accelerating, braking,
or actively steering. LKA can
be overridden by turning the
steering wheel. If the system
detects you are steering
intentionally across a lane
marker, the LDW will not be
given. Do not expect the LDW
to occur when you are
intentionally crossing a lane
marker.

Warning
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the
vehicle. It may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give a
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) alert, even if a lane
marking is detected.
The LKA and LDW systems
may not:
.
Provide an alert or enough
steering assist to avoid a
lane departure or crash.
.
Detect lane markings
under poor weather or
visibility conditions. This
can occur if the windshield

or headlamps are blocked
by dirt, snow, or ice; if they
are not in proper
condition; or if the sun
shines directly into the
camera.
.
Detect road edges.
.
Detect lanes on winding or
hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane
markings on one side of the
road, it will only assist or
provide an LDW alert when
approaching the lane on the
side where it has detected a
lane marking. Even with LKA
and LDW, you must steer
the vehicle. Always keep
your attention on the road
and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane,
or vehicle damage, injury,
or death could occur. Always
keep the windshield,
headlamps, and camera
