When you switch on the system, an
overhead graphic of a vehicle with lane
markings will display in the information
display. If you select aid mode when you
switch on the system, a separate white
icon will also appear or in some vehicles
arrows will display with the lane markings.

When you switch off the system, the lane
marking graphics will not display.

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:

Your vehicle is under the activation
speed.

The turn indicator is active.

Your 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 (significant
sun angles, shadows, snow, heavy rain
or fog), traffic conditions (following a
large vehicle that is blocking or
shadowing the lane), or vehicle
conditions (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 suppressed
at any time by the following:

Quick braking.

Fast acceleration.

Using the turn signal indicator.

Evasive steering maneuver.

Troubleshooting

Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markings

on the road?

Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature

Sun is shining directly into the camera lens

Quick intentional lane change

Staying too close to the lane marking

Driving at high speeds in curves

Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
