The LDW system provides a lane departure warning function when the vehicle is driven at speeds of approximately 45 MPH (72 km/h) and above. When the vehicle approaches either the left or the right side of the traveling lane, a warning chime will sound and the lane departure warning light (orange) on the instrument panel will blink to alert the driver.

The warning function will stop when the vehicle returns inside of the lane markers.
