Safety Notes
The system may be impaired or may not operate in the following situations:
-
when there is low visibility due to insufficient road illumination, or due to snow, rain, fog or heavy spray
-
when there is glare due to oncoming traffic, direct sunlight, or reflections from wet road surfaces
-
when the windshield in the area of the camera is dirty, misted up, damaged or covered by a sticker
-
when no lane markings or several varied lane markings are present, such as in a construction zone
-
when the lane markings are worn, dark or covered, for example by dirt or snow
-
when the distance from the vehicle in front is too small and this prevents the lane markings from being detected
-
when the lane markings change rapidly, when lanes branch off, or when they cross or merge
-
when lanes are very narrow or winding
-
when shade conditions on the road surface change greatly
The driver must adapt their driving style to current conditions. Lane departure warning cannot take the road and weather conditions into account, nor the prevailing traffic situation. The driver is responsible for the distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed, braking in good time and remaining in lane.
