System Display
When you switch the system on, an overhead graphic of a
vehicle with lane markings will be displayed in the left
instrument cluster display.
If the aid mode is selected after you switch the system on,
arrows will be displayed with the lane markings.
When you switch the system off, the lane marking graphics will no longer
be displayed.
Note: The overhead vehicle graphic may still be displayed if adaptive
cruise control is enabled.
While the system is on, the color of the lane markings will change to
indicate the system status.
Gray: Indicates that the system is temporarily unable to provide a
warning or intervention on the indicated side(s). This may be because:
• the vehicle is under the activation speed
• the turn indicator is active
• the vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver
• the road has no or poor lane markings in the camera field-of-view
• the camera is obscured or unable to detect the lane markings due to
environmental conditions (e.g. significant sun angles or shadows,
snow, heavy rain, fog), traffic conditions (e.g. following a large
vehicle that is blocking or shadowing the lane), or vehicle conditions
(e.g. poor headlamp illumination).
See Troubleshooting for additional information.
Green: Indicates that the system is available or ready to provide a
warning or intervention, on the indicated side(s).
Yellow: Indicates that the system is providing or has just provided a lane
keeping aid intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is providing or has just provided a lane
keeping alert warning.
The system can be temporarily disabled at any time by the following:
• Quick braking
• Fast acceleration
• Using the turn signal indicator
• Evasive steering maneuver
