LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
Description
The Lane Departure Warning system uses
a forward looking camera located on the
windshield to detect lane markings and
measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries.
When one or both lane limits are detected
and the vehicle passes over one without
an activated turn signal, the system emits
a visual as well as an audible signal.
If the vehicle continues to go beyond the
line of the lane without any intervention
from the driver, the surpassed line will
light up on the display (left or right) to
urge the driver to bring the vehicle back
into the limits of the lane.
Caution!
Do not tamper with nor operate on the
camera. Do not close the openings in the
aesthetic cover located under the interior
rear view mirror. In the event of a failure of
the camera, contact your authorized dealer.
The camera may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow,
formation of ice layers on the windshield.
Camera operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the windshield,
by traffic conditions (e.g. vehicles that are
driving not aligned with yours, vehicle
driving in a transverse or opposite way on
the same lane, bend with a small radius of
curvature), by road surface conditions and
by driving conditions (e.g. off-road driving).
Make sure the windshield is always clean.
Use specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windshield.The camera
operation may also be limited or absent in
some driving, traffic and road surface
conditions.
If the windshield must be replaced due to
scratches, chipping or breakage, contact
exclusively your authorized dealer. Do not
replace the windshield on your own. It is
advisable to replace the windshield if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.
System Activation/Deactivation

pushing the button located on the end of
the multifunction lever.

Symbols And Messages On The Display
The Lane Departure Warning system
advises the driver when the vehicle
leaves the driving lane by showing
symbols and messages on the instrument
cluster display.
When the system is active and the lane
limits have not been detected, the display
shows a grey vehicle icon with two grey
lines.
Exiting A Lane With Detection Of A
Single Limit
When the system is active and only, for
example, the left lane limit has been
detected, the detected lane illuminates in
white on the display; the system is ready
to provide visual warnings on the display
in the event of unintentional exiting of
the lane (turn signal not activated) to the
left.
When the system detects that the vehicle
has approached the lane line and is about
to pass it, the left line on the display
illuminates in yellow.
The system operates in the same way,
but mirrored, in the event of exiting the
right lane when only the right lane limit
has been detected.
Exiting A Lane With Detection Of Both
Limits
When the system is active, both lane lines
on the display illuminate in white to
indicate the successful detection of both
limits.

STARTING AND OPERATING
When lane limits are detected, the
system is ready to provide indications in
case the driver unintentionally leaves the
lane (turn signal not activated).
As the Lane Departure Warning system
detects the lane limits while the vehicle is
in motion, it will adjust the display
accordingly (from white to yellow and
vice versa, and increase their thickness).
If a line is crossed, the driver is alerted by
an audible signal as well as the visual
indication in the instrument cluster.The
signal is emitted through the speakers on
the side of the lane limit which is being
crossed (eg. if the vehicle is exceeding
the left line of the lane, the audible signal
will come from the speakers on the left of
the vehicle).
Changing The System Settings
The system's sensitivity can be set
through the Information and
Entertainment System. Sensitivity “High”
or “Low” can be selected.
To access the function, from the main
menu select the following in order:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Safety.”
3. “Lane Departure Warning.”
4. “Sensitivity.”
Limited Operation Warning
If a message appears on the display, a
condition limiting the Lane Departure
Warning system operation may have
occurred.This could be an obstruction of
the camera view, or a fault in the system.
If an obstruction is detected, clean the
area of the windshield by the interior rear
view mirror.
Although the vehicle can still be driven in
normal conditions, the system may not
function properly.
When the conditions limiting the system
are corrected, it will go back to normal
operation. Should a fault persist, contact
your authorized dealer.
System Failure Warning
If the system turns off and the warning
light
appears on the display, it means
that there is a system fault.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the
vehicle, but you are advised to contact
your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
