504 uuWhen Driving uRoad Departure Mitigation (RDM) System* Driving Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System* Alerts and helps to assist you when the system determines a possibility of your vehicle unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings. The front camera behind the rearview mirror monitors left and right lane markings (in white or yellow). If your vehicle is getting too close to detected lane markings without a turn signal activated, the system, in addition to a visual alert, applies st eering torque and alerts you with rapid vibrations on the steering wheel, to help you remain within the detected lane. As a visual alert, the Lane Departure message appears on the MID. If the system determines that its steering input is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the roadway, it may apply braking. u Braking is applied only when the lane markings are solid continuous lines. The system cancels assisting operations when you turn th e steering wheel to avoid crossing over detected lane markings. If the system operates several times without detecting driver response, the system beeps to alert you. ■How the System Works 1 Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System* Important Safety Reminder Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has limitations. Over-reliance on the RDM system may result in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within your driving lane. The RDM system only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. The RDM system may not detect all la ne markings or lane or roadway departures; accu racy will vary based on weather, speed and lane marker condition. It is always your responsibilit y to safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions. You can read about handling information for the camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera * P. 491 The RDM system may not wo rk properly or may work improperly under the certain conditions: 2 RDM Conditions and Limitations P. 507 There are times when you may not notice RDM functions due to your opera tion of the vehicle, or road surface conditions. If the Lane Departure message displays repeated ly and you do not apply responsive actions, the sy stem beeps and cancels RDM functions. * Not available on all models 16 PILOT-31TG76000.book 504 ページ ２０１６年１０月１９日 水曜日 午後５時４分

509 uuWhen Driving uLane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)* Continued Driving Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)* Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and provides tactile and visual al erts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane.1Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)* Important Safety Reminders The LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a substitute for your vehicl e control. The system does not work if you take y our hands off the steering wheel or fail to steer the vehicle. 2 Multi-Information Display Warning and Information Messages P. 109 Do not place objects on the instrument panel. Objects may reflect on th e front windshield and prevent correct detectio n of the traffic lanes. LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. LKAS may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; a ccuracy will vary based on weather, speed, an d lane marker condition. It is always your responsibility to safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions. The LKAS is convenient when it is used on freeways. The LKAS may not work properly or may work improperly under the certain conditions: 2 LKAS Conditions and Limitations P. 515 LKAS may not function as designed on while driving in frequent stop and go traf fic, or on roads with sharp curves. You can read about handling information for the camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera * P. 491 When you operate the turn signals to chan ge lanes, the system is suspended, and resumes after the signals are off. If you make a lane change without operat ing the turn signals, the LKAS alerts activate, and torque is applied to the steering. ■LKAS camera Monitors the lane lines ■Tactile and visual alerts Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel and a warning display alert you that the vehicle is drifting out of a detected lane. ■Steering input assist The system applies torque to the steering to keep the vehicle between the left and right lane lines. The applied torque becomes stronger as the vehicle gets closer to either of the lane lines. * Not available on all models 16 PILOT-31TG76000.book 509 ページ ２０１６年１０月１９日 水曜日 午後５時４分
