Test Drive
NOTE:
The LKA may not activate properly in the following conditions.
- In case lane is not visible due to glare or heavy rain.
- In case the road is covered with snow.
- In case puddle on the road surface reflects street light or head light from oncoming vehicle.
- In case there is blocking object such as sidewalk on the side of the road.
- In case there is trace of more than one lane due to road repair.
- In case the distance with vehicle in front is very short.
- Be sure to perform test drive to check for normal operation after performing optical angle test.
- Drive on straight road (of longer than 500 m) with 2 white or yellow lane marks at speed of over 64 km/h (40 mph), and check for the alert as you intentionally steer close to the lane mark.
- LKA operates properly if the lane mark segment space is less than 8 m.
- LKA activates at vehicle speed above 64 km/h (40 mph).
- Perform test drive on car-only road or on a highway.
NOTE:
The lane keeping assist system (LKA) may not operate in the following conditions:
- Lane lines are not visible due to rain, snow, dust, puddles, wet road surface or debris.
- The brightness outside the vehicle suddenly changes, for example, when entering a tunnel.
- The head lamp is not used or the light is too weak at night or while in a tunnel.
- The lane lines are not distinguishable from the road.
- The vehicle is on the bus lane or on the lane next to the bus lane.
- The road is curved too sharply or the slope of the road is too steep.
- Sunlight, street light, or lamp light of the on-coming vehicle is reflected on the wet road surface.
- The windshield or the camera lens is contaminated due to dust or debris.
- The visibility is poor due to bad weather such as fog, heavy rain, or heavy snow.
- The temperature around the rear view mirror is too high due to direct sunlight.
- The road lane is too narrow or wide.
- The lane lines are faint or damaged.
- Condensation on the windshield is not completely removed.
- A shadow of median strip covers the road lanes.
- The lane lines are not distinguishable from the road due to dust on the road.
- There are tracks or marks near the lane lines.
- A shadow of median strip, guardrail, sound-absorbing walls, or trees covers the road lanes.
- There is a line structure such as pavements.
- The distance from the preceding vehicle is too short or the preceding vehicle is on the lane lines.
- The vehicle is shaking intensely.
- Objects are on the crash pad.
- Backlight is lit in the direction of movement.
- The lane lines are too complex or are replaced by an alternate structure due to construction.
- The visibility is too poor to see the lane lines.
- There are two or more lane lines.
- The lane lines inside a tunnel are contaminated by dust or oil.
- There are road markings such as crosswalk or road signs on the road surface.
- The lane lines disappear or are not visible, for example, in a cross-section.
- The number of road lanes increases/decreases or the road lanes cross each other complicatedly.
- (Tollgate entrances/exits or divided/joined roads)
CAUTION:
The lane keeping assist system (LKA) prevents lane departures and helps the driver with steering, but the driver must not rely on the LKA, make a decision for safety on their own, and take necessary measures.
- This system warns the driver about unintended lane departures and assists the driver in case of any lane departure.
- Drivers are responsible for controlling their vehicle in order to drive safely.
- Do not turn the steering wheel too rapidly when the system sounds the alarm.
- This system is not activated when the vehicle speed is 60 km/h or less or the system fails to detect the lane lines.
- Do not tint or put stickers or accessories on the windshield around the rear view mirror.
- Keep the installation part of LKA dry.
- Do not remove or give an impact on LKA parts.
- Do not place reflective materials such as white paper or a mirror on the dashboard. They may cause malfunction due to reflected sunlight.
- Excessive noises may prevent the driver from hearing the LKA alarm sound.
