Hyundai i30 (PD): Driving your vehicle / Lane departure warning (LDW) system

This Lane Departure Warning (LDW) System detects the lane with the sensor at the front windscreen and warns you when your vehicle leaves the lane.

WARNING

The Lane Departure Warning System is not a substitute for safe driving practices, but a convenience function only. It is the responsibility of the driver to always be aware of the surrounding and steer the vehicle.

WARNING

Take the following precautions when using the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) System:

• ALWAYS check your surroundings and the road conditions before changing lanes. The LDW system does not control the vehicle to change lanes or to stay in the current lane.
• Do not make abrupt manoeuvres or turn the steering wheel suddenly if the LDW system alerts you that the vehicle is departing from the lane.
• If the camera recognition system does not properly detect the lane, the LDW system may not notify you if the vehicle departs from the lane.
• The LDW system does not operate until the vehicle speed reaches approximately 37 mph (60 km/h).
• Do not disassemble the LDW system camera temporarily to tint the window or attach any types of coatings and accessories. If you disassemble the camera and assemble it again, we recommend that you take your vehicle to a HYUNDAI authorised repairer and have the system checked for calibration.
• When you replace the windscreen glass or LDW system camera, we recommend that you take your vehicle to a HYUNDAI authorised repairer and have the system checked for calibration.
• Do not spray water or any type of liquid near the camera. The system may become damaged.
• Do not attempt to repair the LDW system camera and do not remove any parts.
• Do not place objects that reflect light on the dashboard whilst driving.
• Do not place any accessories near the inside rearview mirror.
• You may not hear a warning sound of LDW system because of the excessive audio sound.
• The operation of the LDW system may be affected by several factors including environmental conditions that affect the ability of the camera to detect the lanes in front of you. It is the responsibility of the driver to pay careful attention to the roadway and to maintain the vehicle in its intended lane at all times.
