Hands-off warning
OCL4M055099N

  1. Keep hands on steering wheel

If you take your hands off the steering wheel for several seconds, a warning message appears on the instrument cluster, and an audible warning sounds in stages.

WARNING

  • Steering assistance may not activate if you hold the steering wheel very tight or steer over a certain degree.

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

  • The hands-off warning message may appear late, depending on road conditions. Always keep your hands on the steering wheel whilst driving.

  • If you hold the steering wheel very lightly, the hands-off warning message may appear because Lane Keeping Assist may not recognise that you have your hands on the steering wheel.

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

TIP

  • Even when the steering is assisted by Lane Keeping Assist, you may still control the steering wheel.

  • The steering wheel may feel heavier or lighter than usual when the steering wheel is being assisted by Lane Keeping Assist.

  • When the lane is recognised, the lane colour in the cluster changes from gray to white.
