DRIVER ALERT (If Equipped)
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
The system is designed to aid the
driver. It is not intended to replace your
attention and judgment. You are still
responsible to drive with due care and
attention.
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening, if required.
Failure to take care may result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, serious personal
injury or death.
The system may not function if the
sensor is blocked.
Take regular rest breaks if you feel
tired. Do not wait for the system to
warn you.
Certain driving styles may result in the
system warning you even if you are not
feeling tired.
WARNINGS
In cold and severe weather conditions
the system may not function. Rain,
snow and spray can all limit sensor
performance.
The system will not operate if the
sensor cannot track the road lane
markings.
If damage occurs in the immediate area
surrounding the sensor, have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
The system may not correctly operate
if your vehicle is fitted with a
suspension kit not approved by us.
Note: Keep the windshield free from
obstructions for example bird droppings,
insects and snow or ice.
Note: If the camera is blocked or if the
windshield is damaged, the system may not
function.
Note: The system will store the on or off
setting in the information display menu
through ignition cycles.
Note: If enabled in the menu, the system will
be active at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h).
When below the activation speed, the
information display will inform the driver that
the system is unavailable.
The system automatically monitors your
driving behavior using various inputs
including the front camera sensor.
If the system detects that your driving
alertness is reduced below a certain
threshold, the system will alert you using a
chime and a message in the cluster display.
USING DRIVER ALERT
Switching the System On and Off
Switch the system on or off using the
information display. See General
Information (page 114).
