A: LFA (Lane Following Assist) cancelled

If the driver still does not have their hands on the steering wheel after the hands-off warning the warning message will appear and Lane Following Assist will be automatically canceled.

WARNING

  • The steering wheel may not be assisted if the steering wheel is held very tight or the steering wheel is steered over a certain degree.

  • Lane Following Assist does not operate at all times. It is the responsibility of the driver to safely steer the vehicle and to maintain the vehicle in its lane.

  • The hands–off warning message may appear late depending on road conditions. Always have your hands on the steering wheel while driving.

  • If the steering wheel is held very lightly the hands–off warning message may appear because Lane Following Assist may not recognize that the driver has their hands on the steering wheel.

  • If you attach objects to the steering wheel, the hands-off warning may not work properly.

NOTE

  • When both lane markings are detected, the lane lines on the cluster will change from grey to white.

  • The images and colors in the instrument cluster may differ depending on the cluster type or theme selected from the settings menu.

  • If lane markings are not detected, steering wheel control by Lane Following Assist can be limited depending on whether a vehicle is in front or the driving conditions of the vehicle.

  • Even though the steering is assisted by Lane Following Assist, the driver may control the steering wheel.

  • The steering wheel may feel heavier or lighter when the steering wheel is assisted by Lane Following Assist than when it is not.
