System Operation

Operation conditions

The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) becomes operational when all of the following conditions are met.

  • The vehicle speed is about 64 km/h (40 mph) or faster.

  • The system detects white (yellow) lane lines.

 


When the system does not detect a white (yellow) lane line on one side only, the system does not operate on the side that is not being detected.

When temporarily canceling the system

The LAS goes on stand-by when any of the following conditions is met. The LAS is automatically restored when its operation conditions are met.

  • The system cannot detect white (yellow) lane lines.

  • The vehicle speed is less than about 56 km/h (35 mph).

  • The turn signal lever is operated.

  • The accelerator pedal is depressed abruptly.

  • The TCS/DSC is operating.

  • The TCS is turned off.

  • The steering wheel is operated.

  • The brake pedal is operated.

The function is temporarily stopped.

The LAS stops functioning in the following cases:

  • The temperature in the forward sensing camera (FSC) is too high or too low.

  • The windshield around the forward sensing camera (FSC) is foggy.

  • The windshield around the forward sensing camera (FSC) is blocked by an obstruction, causing poor forward visibility.

  • Strong light (such as sunlight, or headlights (high-beam) of on-coming vehicles) is directed at the forward sensing camera (FSC).
