WARNING

Applicable to ProPILOT Assist suite of systems, including ProPILOT Assist 2.0, ProPILOT Assist, ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link, Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), Steering Assist, Lane Change Assist, Passing Assist, Route Assist, Driver Monitoring System and conventional (fixed speed) cruise control, referenced below as "ProPILOT Assist systems" (All systems if so equipped).

• Failure to follow the following warnings and instructions for proper use of the ProPILOT Assist systems, as applicable, could result in an accident causing serious injury or death.
• Always drive carefully and attentively when using the ProPILOT Assist systems. Read and understand the Owner's Manual thoroughly before using the ProPILOT Assist systems. To avoid serious injury or death, do not rely on the systems to prevent accidents or to control the vehicle's speed in emergency situations.
• Do not use the ProPILOT Assist systems except in appropriate road and traffic conditions.
• The ProPILOT Assist systems are for limited access freeway use only and are not intended for city driving.
• The ProPILOT Assist systems are not self-driving systems. Within the limits of their capabilities, as described in this manual, they help the driver with certain driving activities.
• The ProPILOT Assist systems are not replacements for proper driving procedures and will not correct careless, inattentive or absent-minded driving. Regardless of which system or function is being used, it is the driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, and be in control of the vehicle at all times. Failure to apply the brakes or steer the vehicle when necessary may result in a serious accident.
• The ProPILOT Assist systems are only aids to assist the driver and are not collision warning or avoidance devices.
• There are limitations to the ProPILOT Assist systems' capabilities.

  Never rely solely on these systems. The ProPILOT Assist systems do not function in all driving, traffic, weather and road conditions.

• Never unfasten your safety seat belt when using the ProPILOT Assist. Doing so automatically cancels the ProPILOT Assist systems.
• When using the ProPILOT Assist systems, always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed, the ProPILOT Assist systems will not provide automatic braking and/or the approach warning. The driver must manually control the vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle ahead. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury or death.
• Do not rely on the ProPILOT Assist systems to prevent accidents. The driver must maintain a safe distance to the vehicle ahead by braking or accelerating, depending on the surrounding circumstances.
• When using Steering Assist, it is the driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling lane and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

  Never take your hands off the steering wheel while driving unless the driving conditions allow and the ProPILOT Assist system is in Hands Off mode. Keep your hands on the steering wheel and drive the vehicle safely.

• Steering Assist is intended for use on limited access freeways with gentle (moderate) curves. To avoid risk of an accident, do not use this system on local or non-highway/ freeway roads.
• Steering Assist only steers the vehicle to maintain its position in the center of a lane. The vehicle will not steer to avoid objects in the road in front of the vehicle, to avoid a vehicle moving into your lane or to avoid a vehicle approaching from the side.
• Lane Change Assist, Passing Assist, and Route Assist only assist the driver to make a lane change. These systems do not steer the vehicle to avoid a collision.

  Be sure to keep your hands on the steering wheel and move safely to a different lane.

• Route Assist may not help the vehicle proceeding to the exit or junction, for example, when the other vehicles are stopped on the exit or junction. Stay alert to the surrounding vehicles and operate the steering wheel to proceed to the exit or junction.
• When using conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode, a warning chime does not sound to warn you if you are too close to the vehicle ahead, as neither the presence of the vehicle ahead nor the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is detected. Pay special attention to the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you, or a collision could occur.
• Always confirm the setting in the ICC system display.
• Do not use the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode when driving under the following conditions (doing so could cause a loss of vehicle control and result in an accident):
  • When it is not possible to keep the vehicle at a set speed
  • In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in speed
  • On winding or hilly roads
  • On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
  • In very windy areas

ProPILOT Assist Systems Overview

Each ProPILOT Assist feature is designed to help the driver in different ways as they drive.

Here is a summary of these features. See the specified page for detailed information.

ProPILOT Assist 2.0 mode indicators

Basic information

ProPILOT Assist has a variety of modes depending on various conditions and are represented by color. The system will automatically transition to the highest available mode when conditions are met. The table below shows the available system modes and the required conditions.

How it works:

ProPILOT Assist Systems (if so equipped) uses some or all of the following components:

1. Front radar sensor: Monitors the vehicle ahead in the same and adjacent lanes.
2. Intelligent Around View Monitor cameras (front and rear): Monitor motorcycles in the adjacent lanes (supplemental to the side radar sensors).
3. Side radar sensors (front) (ProPILOT Assist 2.0 only): Monitor the other vehicles and empty spaces in the adjacent lanes.
4. Tri-Camera (ProPILOT Assist 2.0)/ Multi-sensing front camera (ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link): Monitors the other vehicles and empty spaces in adjacent lanes as well as lane markings.
5. Sonar sensors: Monitor the vehicles on the sides and rear (ProPILOT Assist 2.0 only) of the vehicle.
6. Side radar sensors (rear): Monitor the other vehicles in the adjacent lanes and approaching from the rear (i.e. blind spot).
7. GNSS antenna (ProPILOT Assist 2.0 only) Used to gather GNSS signal to understand vehicle positioning.

NOTE

It is important to ensure the radar sensors, cameras and sonar sensors are clear before each drive. Unclean or damaged cameras and sensors, as well as environmental conditions, can affect system performance.

Always keep the area near the radar sensors clean.

The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary ambient conditions such as snow, splashing water, mist or fog.

The blocked condition may also be caused by objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar sensors.

Check for and remove objects obstructing the area around the radar sensors.

Do not attach stickers (including transparent material), install accessories or apply additional paint near the radar sensors.

Do not strike or damage the area around the radar sensors.

See a NISSAN certified ARIYA dealer or other authorized repair shop if the area around the radar sensors is damaged due to a collision.

Precautions on repairing the bumper When repairing the bumper, take caution because the radar sensors are installed on the bumper.

The radar sensor detects objects by emitting a radar signal and then measuring its reflection.

WARNING

If an improper repair is performed on the bumper (for example, application of putty made from different materials, repaint, etc.) the radar signal could be weakened or prevented from functioning properly. This may cause the radar sensor not to detect objects correctly. Improper repair may result in serious personal injury.

If it is necessary to repair the bumper, it is recommended you visit a NISSAN certified ARIYA dealer for this service.

Limitations

Many factors can impact the performance of ProPILOT Assist systems, causing the systems not to perform as intended. ProPILOT Assist functions should not be used in certain situations.

These include (but are not limited to):

• Poor visibility due to heavy rain, snow, ice, fog, etc.
• Bright light (due to oncoming traffic, direct sunlight, etc.)
• Obstruction to radars, sensors and cameras caused by mud, dirt, ice, snow, etc.
• Interference to sensors and radars (such as a bike rack, decals, etc.)
• Faded or inconsistent lane markings
• Construction zones
• Barren landscape
• Wide or narrow lanes
• Hard deceleration
• Tollbooths

ProPILOT Assist may not react to:

• Stationary vehicles
• Pedestrians, bicycles or animals
• Road debris
• Road pylon in a construction zone

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for the ProPILOT Assist functions and systems, including ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link, ProPILOT Assist 2.0, Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), Steering Assist, Lane Change Assist, Route Assist). Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in serious injury or death:

• These systems are primarily intended for use on freeways. It is not advisable to use these systems in city/urban traffic.
• These systems will not adapt automatically to all road conditions.

  They should be used in evenly flowing traffic. Do not use these systems on roads with sharp curves or in inclement weather or adverse road conditions.

• There are performance limits to all ProPILOT Assist functions.

  Never rely solely on these systems. These systems do not correct careless, inattentive, or absent-minded driving or overcome poor visibility in inclement weather.

• When using these systems, the driver must be attentive to the driving task. When necessary, decelerate the vehicle speed by using the brake pedal, accelerate using the accelerator pedal, and steer the vehicle as appropriate in order to maintain a safe distance between vehicles and manage changing or dynamic traffic, vehicle and roadway conditions.
• When the ProPILOT Assist function automatically brings the vehicle to a stop, your vehicle can automatically accelerate if the vehicle is stopped for less than approximately 30 seconds on the freeway. Always be prepared to apply the brakes and stop your vehicle if necessary.
• Always check your surroundings before restarting the vehicle when it has been at a stop.
• These systems are not designed to detect anything other than motorized vehicles travelling in the same direction on the roadway. In particular, the systems do not detect the following objects:
  • Pedestrians, animals or objects in the roadway
  • Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
  • Motorcycles travelling offset in the travel lane
  • Road debris
• In the following situations, the ProPILOT Assist functions and system may not operate properly.

  To avoid accidents or unwanted system operation, never use these systems under the following conditions:

  • On roads with heavy, high-speed traffic or sharp curves
  • On slippery or adverse road surfaces, such as on wet, icy or snowy roads, or when roadway traffic is causing adverse travel conditions (i.e. road spray from passing vehicles)
  • On unpaved or uneven roadway surfaces, or on steep uphill or downhill roads
  • During inclement weather, such as rain, snow, fog, ice, sandstorms or dust storms
  • When sensor detection capabilities are reduced, for example:
  • When snow/ice/dirt are covering the sensors or the camera area of the windshield is fogged up
  • When objects, such as stickers, bike racks or cargo obstruct the vehicle sensors
  • When strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles) enters the cameras or there is a sudden change in brightness (for example, entering or exiting a tunnel or driving under a bridge)
  • When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance between vehicles because of frequent acceleration or deceleration, or when the cut-in detection function or approach warning activates frequently
  • When a complicated-shaped vehicle, such as a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/trailer is near the vehicle ahead
  • When there is interference by other radar sources
  • When driving with vehicle equipment that is not original to the vehicle (for example, equipped with non-original brake, tire or suspension parts) or not within normal conditions (for example, tire wear, abnormal tire pressure, installation of tire chains, reduced headlight brightness)
  • When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or cargo area of the vehicle, or when vehicle load capacity is exceeded.
  • When towing a trailer or other vehicle (AWD models)
  • When driving on roads with missing, unclear, discontinued or less detectable lane markers or roads with multiple parallel lane markers, or roads with markings or features that might be detected as lane markers (for example, wheel ruts and paving seams)
  • When driving on roads where the lane markers or traffic patterns are changing, temporary or unusual (for example, merging or separating lanes, widering/narrowing lanes, exit ramps, toll gates, construction zones, lane closures)
  • When the lane markers are not visible due to darkness and the headlights are off
• There are variety of conditions and situations in which the detection of a vehicle ahead may be delayed or the vehicle ahead may not be detected. A few examples include:
  • A vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle
  • When driving on a blind curve or winding road
  • A stationary vehicle or vehicle travelling at a much slower speed suddenly becomes apparent after the vehicle ahead changes lanes
  • When motorcycles are traveling offset from the center of the lane
• Drivers should always be attentive and take action if needed to manage the roadway and traffic situation.
• The Driver Monitoring System used to support ProPILOT Assist 2.0 may not detect the driver's condition in all situations, including:
  • When the camera or the driver is lit by sunlight or there are repeated changes in brightness (in sunlight and shadow alternatively)
  • When portions of the driver's face or head are hidden (for example, inappropriate driving position), wearing sunglasses, a face mask or a hat)
  • When there is an obstruction between the driver's face and the monitoring camera
  • When the monitoring camera lens becomes dirty or obscured
  • When more than one face is recognized near the driver's seat (for example, a passenger is leaning over toward the driver)
  • When the driver narrows their eyes or loses their driving posture (for example, avoiding the sun glare, etc.)
• The side radar sensors may not detect or may have delayed detection of vehicles in adjacent lanes in some conditions, for example, vehicles approaching rapidly from behind, particularly high or low ground clearance vehicles, motorcycles, or a vehicle which has recently entered that zone from behind. Stay alert to surrounding vehicles and operate the steering wheel as needed for traffic conditions.
• Route Assist may not operate properly when the distance of the exit of junction is extremely short or when driving on a roadway where frequent lane changes are needed near the exit or junction.

  Stay alert to the surrounding vehicles and operate the steering wheel to proceed to the exit or junction.

• In some conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly come into the sensor detection zone and cause automatic braking.

  Always stay alert and avoid using the systems where not recommended.

• Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound and the beep may not be heard.

If the steering wheel icon is yellow, this indicates that Steering Assist may be limited and should take the driver takes over steering.

Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)

Basic information

Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) is a part of ProPILOT Assist. Read the entire ProPILOT Assist section before using this system, including how to operate the system and understanding the display. The ICC system uses a forward facing radar sensor and is designed to operate as follows:

• When there is no vehicle detected in the same traveling lane, the ICC system maintains the speed set by the driver.
• When there is a vehicle detected in the traveling lane, the ICC system adjusts the speed to maintain the distance, selected by the driver, from the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill. Once your vehicle stops, the ICC system keeps the vehicle stopped.
• When the vehicle traveling ahead moves to a different traveling lane, the ICC system accelerates and maintains vehicle speed up to the set speed.

  Maximum speed: 90 MPH (144 km/h)

The ICC system can only apply up to 40% of the vehicle's total braking power and should only be used when traffic conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly constant. If acceleration is required over the ICC system, the driver may override using the accelerator pedal at any time.

The system will not brake the vehicle during driver acceleration. The ICC system requires a lead vehicle if the speed is below approximately 15 MPH (24 km/h).

Vehicle must be traveling at 20 MPH (30 km/h) to initially set the ICC system.

NOTE

Brake lights of the vehicle come on when braking is performed by the ICC system.

For additional available features of the ICC system, see:

• Speed Adjust by Route which adjusts speed based on freeway curves, exits and junctions
• Speed Limit Assist helps alert the driver of a speed limit change and can adjust vehicle set speed

System operation

The ICC system can be set to one of two cruise control modes:

• Cruise control - fixed speed
• Intelligent Cruise Control - adaptive

NOTE

Steering Assist is not available in conventional (fixed speed) cruise control.

For Intelligent Cruise Control without Steering Assist, activate ProPILOT Assist and then turn off Steering Assist by the switch or in the settings menu. For conventional (fixed speed) cruise control, push and hold the ProPILOT Assist switch for longer than approximately 1.5 seconds then set your desired speed.

System set display - no vehicle detected ahead (for ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link)

System set display - no vehicle detected ahead (for ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

If no vehicle ahead detected:

If no vehicle ahead detected: The ICC system maintains the vehicle set speed, similar to standard cruise control, as long as no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.

When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead, the vehicle will gradually accelerate to driver set speed.

System set display - a vehicle detected ahead (for ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link)

System set display - a vehicle detected ahead (for ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

If vehicle ahead is detected:

When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead, the ICC system decelerates to the vehicle by controlling the throttle and applying the brakes to match the speed of the slower vehicle ahead and maintain the driver selected distance.

If the vehicle ahead stops:

When a vehicle ahead is detected and it gradually decelerates to a stop, your vehicle will decelerate to a standstill. When at a standstill, the "(RES+) Follow Vehicle Ahead" message is displayed on the vehicle information display.

• For vehicles equipped with ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link or ProPILOT Assist 2.0, if the vehicle ahead stops and your vehicle is stopped less than approximately 30 seconds on the freeway, the "Follow Vehicle Ahead" message appears on the vehicle information display. When the vehicle ahead begins to move, your vehicle will start moving automatically.
• If not equipped with these systems, or not on a freeway, your vehicle will automatically start moving after 3 seconds.

To resume the ICC system after stop, push up the cancel switch to the RES+ direction or lightly depress the accelerator pedal.

WARNING

If a vehicle cuts in after your vehicle was stopped by the ICC system, it cannot be detected depending on its position or direction. Your vehicle may approach the cut-in vehicle when restarting. Operate the brake pedal to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle ahead.

Cut-in detection:

For vehicles not equipped with ProPILOT Assist 2.0, if a vehicle moves into your traveling lane near your vehicle, the ICC system may inform the driver by flashing the vehicle ahead detection indicator.

Passing a slower vehicle:

When passing a slower vehicle on the left, the ICC system will temporarily accelerate to aid in the lane change. The system will not exceed set speed during a lane change.

Approach warning:

If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle ahead due to rapid deceleration of that vehicle or if another vehicle cuts in, the system warns the driver with the chime and ICC system display. Decelerate by depressing the brake pedal to maintain a safe vehicle distance if:

• The chime sounds.
• The vehicle ahead detection indicator blinks.
• You judge it necessary to maintain a safe distance.

The warning chime may not sound in some cases when there is a short distance between vehicles. Some examples are:

• When the vehicles are traveling at the same speed and the distance between vehicles is not changing.
• When the vehicle ahead is traveling faster and the distance between vehicles in increasing.

NOTE

The approach warning chime may sound and the system display may flash when the radar sensor detects objects on the side of the vehicle or on the side of the road. This may cause the ICC system to decelerate or accelerate the vehicle The radar sensor may detect these objects when the vehicle is driven on winding, narrow, or hilly roads or when the vehicle is entering or exiting a curve. In these cases, you will have to manually control the proper distance ahead of you vehicle. Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected by vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driving position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle conditions (for example, if a vehicle is being driven with some damage).

NOTE

It is important to ensure the radar sensors, cameras and sonar sensors are clean before each drive. Unclean or damaged cameras and sensors, as well as environmental conditions can affect system performance.

Warnings and malfunctions

Under the following conditions, the ICC system is automatically canceled. A chime will sound and the system will not be able to be set:

• The vehicle ahead is not detected and your vehicle is traveling below the speed of 15 MPH (24 km/h). For ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link equipped vehicles on a limited access freeway as identified in the navigation map data, the ICC system cancels and a warning chime sounds if your vehicle is at a standstill for more than approximately 3 seconds and a vehicle is not detected ahead.
• Any door is open.
• The driver's seat belt is unfastened.
• Your vehicle has been stopped by the ICC system for approximately 3 minutes or longer.
• The shift lever is moved out of the D (Drive) or B position.
• The electronic parking brake is applied.
• The SNOW mode is selected (AWD models).
• The VDC system is turned off.
• The VDC system (including the traction control system) operates.
• A wheel slips.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection applied harder braking.
• When the radar signal is temporarily interrupted.

If limitations are considered, all conditions above are met and the ICC system is still not functioning properly, see "Driver assistance troubleshooting guide" for full list of messages and conditions.

Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control

Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control is available as an alternative to Intelligent Cruise Control. To turn on conventional cruise control mode:

Speed Limit Assist

Speed Limit Assist is a feature of ProPILOT Assist Systems on vehicle equipped with a built-in navigation system. Read the entire ProPILOT Assist and Traffic Sign Recognition sections before using this system.

When ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link (or 2.0) is active and it detects a change of the speed limit, the new speed limit is indicated and it can be applied to the vehicle set speed automatically or manually.

The Speed Limit Assist operates:

• When the detected speed limit is 20 MPH (30 km/h) and above.
• The "Speed Limit Assist" is enabled in the settings menu of the vehicle information display.

Speed Limit Assist has two modes and is shown in the display 1.

The Auto mode may not be available in some regions or on roads other than limited access freeways. In this case, the system operates as the Manual mode.

NOTE

• Auto mode will not function in Hawaii or US island territories.
• Auto mode is only available on limited access freeways as identified in the navigation map data.

When the system detects a different speed limit by the Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system, the new speed value is displayed in 2.

When in Manual mode (factory default setting for ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link):

• To accept a newly indicated speed limit, operate the cancel switch to the RES+ direction for a speed limit increase or the SET- direction for a speed limit decrease.
• The speed limit can be rejected by operating the opposite switch from the direction indicated by the Speed Limit Assist indicator.
• If no action is taken, the set speed will remain the same.
• If speed limit offset is on, this value will be added or subtracted from speed limit (for ProPILOT Assist 2.0).

When in Auto mode (factory default setting for ProPILOT Assist 2.0):

• The indicated speed limit is applied to the vehicle set speed automatically.
• If speed limit offset is on, this value will be added or subtracted from speed limit (for ProPILOT Assist 2.0).
• If ProPILOT Assist is on (standby), but not set (active), and new speed limit is detected, the vehicle set speed is automatically updated.

How to adjust Speed Limit Offset (for ProPILOT Assist 2.0):

Vehicle information display

Settings → Driver Assistance → Intelligent Cruise → Speed Limit Assist Set → -5 MPH (-10 km/h) to + 5 MPH (10 km/h)

How to enable/disable/change Speed Limit Assist:

Vehicle information display

Settings → Driver Assistance → Intelligent Cruise → Speed Limit Assist → Auto/Manual/ OFF

NOTE

• While the accelerator pedal is operated with Auto mode selected, Speed Limit Assist will function (automatically adjust the vehicle set speed) only when the detected speed limit is faster than the vehicle set speed.
• In the following situations, Speed Limit Assist will not operate:
  • When an increase in the posted speed limit is detected, but the vehicle set speed is already faster than the new speed limit.
  • When a decrease in the posted speed limit is detected, but the vehicle set speed is already lower than the new speed limit.

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for Speed Limit Assist. Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in serious injury or death. It is driver's responsibility to select the proper speed, follow all traffic regulations and observe other road users.

• Speed Limit Assist may not operate properly and the actual speed limit may not be applied to the vehicle set speed in all conditions.

  The driver must manually control the vehicle speed.

  Below are some examples:

  • When the Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system is not functioning properly or turned off.

When speed limit sign is faded, dirty or distorted.

• When driving in countries or areas not covered by the navigation system.
• When crossing national boundaries.
• When driving on the exit of the limited access freeway as identified in the navigation map data.
• When driving in an area with nearby parallel roads (for example, freeway with a parallel service drive).
• When driving in an area where each lane has a different speed limit sign.
• When driving on a road under construction or in a construction zone.
• When the data from the navigation system is not up-to-date or is unavailable.

Speed Adjust by Route

Speed Adjust by Route is a feature of Pro- PILOT Assist Systems on vehicles equipped with a built-in navigation system.

Read the entire ProPILOT Assist section before using this system, including how to operate the system and understanding the display.

When ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link is active on a limited access freeway (as identified in the navigation map data), Speed Adjust by Route uses road information provided by the navigation system and can adjust the vehicle speed depending on curves, junctions and exits. The system may not always reduce speed for all curves, junctions or exits and the driver may need to apply additional braking at any time. When the vehicle is through the curve or junction, the vehicle will accelerate again to the set speed. When exiting the limited access freeway, the driver will need to apply braking at the end of the exit.

When Speed Adjust by Route is active, either icon will appear in the vehicle information display.

Steering Assist

Basic information

Steering Assist is a part of ProPILOT Assist Systems. Read the entire ProPILOT Assist section before using this system, including how to operate the system and understanding the display. Steering Assist uses a forward facing camera to detect clear and consistent lane markings on both sides of the vehicle and is designed to help keep the vehicle in the center of traveling lane. Steering Assist is only available when combined with the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system making up ProPILOT Assist.

Steering Assist can be activated when the following conditions are met:

• ProPILOT Assist is activated.
• Lane markings on both sides are clearly detected.
• Your vehicle is traveling at speed over 37 MPH (60 km/h), or a vehicle is detected in front of you when traveling under 37 MPH (60 km/h).
• The driver has hands on the steering wheel.
• The vehicle is driven at the center of the lane.
• Turn signals are not active.
• The windshield wipers are not operated in the high speed position.

When a curve or strong cross wind exceeds the capabilities of the system and your vehicle approaches the lane line, the Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI) system will activate. The I-LI system will have a visual and audible alert while applying the brakes for a short period of time to help assist the driver to return to the center of the lane. For more information, see "Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)".

How to enable/disable Steering Assist:
