Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)*

Lane Keeping Assist is designed to detect the lane markers on the road, with a front view camera on the windshield, and may assist the driver’s steering to potentially help keep the vehicle in the lane.

When turned on, the Instrument Cluster indicator will initially illuminate white.

It will remain white when LKA detects the lane markers. When LKA does not detect the lane markers, the lanes will display gray.

When LKA detects the lane markers and can assist the steering, the LKA icon will illuminate green.

If LKA detects that you are moving outside of your lane, LKA may give an audible warning and display a Lane Departure Warning on the Instrument Cluster.

When the front-view camera detects the vehicle moving outside of the lane being traveled in, a yellow marker will illuminate either on the left or right lane (shown in both images above).

If the vehicle continues to move outside of the lane, LKA may provide steering inputs, to help prevent the vehicle from moving outside its lane.

Hands-off Warning

If the driver takes their hands off the Steering Wheel for several seconds, a warning message will appear on the Instrument Cluster.

LKA will operate under the following conditions:
