Chevrolet Sonic Owner's Manual: Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
For vehicles with this feature, read the entire section before using it.
Warning
The LDW system is an aid to help the vehicle stay in the driving lane. It does not steer the vehicle. The LDW system may not:
- . Provide enough time to avoid a crash.
- . Detect lane markings under bad weather conditions or if the windshield is dirty.
- . Detect lane markings and will not detect road edges.
- . Warn that the vehicle is crossing a lane marking if the system does not detect the lane marking.
If LDW only detects lane markings on one side of the road, it will only warn you when departing the lane on the side where it has detected a lane marker. Even with LDW, always keep your attention on the road and maintain proper vehicle position within the lane, or vehicle damage, injury, or death could occur. Always keep the windshield clean and do not use LDW in bad weather conditions.
When the vehicle crosses a detected lane marking, the LDW indicator will flash and three beeps will sound. LDW will not warn if the turn signal is on or if a sharp maneuver is made.
