Kia Sedona: Lane departure warning system (LDWS)
This system detects the lane with a sensor at the front windshield and notifies
you if it detects that your vehicle leaves the lane.
WARNING - LDWS Alert
The LDWS is only intended to provide you with information regarding your vehicle's
position on the roadway. Upon receiving an LDWS alert, you must take the necessary
steps to maintain control of your vehicle. The LDWS does not provide any steering
inputs into the vehicle for you. It can be dangerous to make a large sudden steering
input in response to an alert, since that could result in loss of control.
- The LDWS does not make the vehicle change lanes. It is the driver's responsibility
to always check the road conditions.
- If the sensor cannot detect the lane or if the vehicle speed does not exceed
70 km/h (44 mph), the LDWS will not be able to notify you if the vehicle leaves
the lane.
- If your vehicle has window tint or other types of coating on the front windshield,
the LDWS may not work properly.
- Prevent damage to the LDWS sensor from water or any liquid.
- Do not remove the LDWS parts and do not damage the sensor by a strong impact.
- Do not put objects that reflect light on the dash board.
- The operation of the LDWS can be affected by several factors (including
environmental conditions). It is the responsibility of the driver to pay attention
to the roadway and to maintain the vehicle in it's lane at all times.
To operate the LDWS, press the button with the engine start/stop button in the
ON position. The indicator (green) illuminates on the cluster. To cancel the LDWS,
press the button again.
