Lane Keeping Aid (LKA) - operation

Lane Keeping Aid is one of the functions in the Driver Alert System - sometimes also referred to as LKA (Lane Keeping Aid).

The function is intended for use on motorways and similar major roads in order to reduce the risk of the vehicle accidentally leaving its own lane in certain situations.

Lane Keeping Aid is supplemented with self-explanatory graphics in different situations. Here are some examples:

 Note

LKA is temporarily deactivated for as long as the direction indicator is switched on.
