System warnings

Avertissements du système

A column of lane markings is displayed on each side of the vehicle icon.

Lane markings follow the color coding below:

  • Green: the system is ready to warn you of an unintentional lane change.
  • Yellow: the system automatically applies steering torque to align the vehicle's path and correct any unintentional lane drift.
  • Red: your vehicle is approaching or is too close to the detected lane boundary. The steering wheel gives a vibration warning. Take immediate action to safely steer the vehicle back into its lane.

Situations that may cause a lane boundary to be removed:

  • The road markings are not detected by the sensor.
  • You activate the turn signal for that side of the vehicle.
  • If you perform sudden maneuvers, accelerate hard or brake hard.
  • Your vehicle speed is outside the operating limits.
  • When the anti-lock braking system or electronic stability control intervenes.
  • Narrow lane.

Note: You can override the system at any time while it is operating by turning the steering wheel.
