Forward Collision Warning System Performance Tips
Several factors affect the performance of the forward collision
warning system (FCWS). Some conditions may prevent the
FCWS feature from detecting a vehicle ahead of you.
• The FCWS feature activates only when your vehicle speed
exceeds 48 km/h (30 mph).
• The FCWS feature may not detect a vehicle ahead of you
when the camera's view of the vehicle is obscured by rain,
fog, snow, sun or headlight glare, or darkness.
• The FCWS feature may not function properly if the camera is
incorrectly aligned (Aligning the Camera).
• The FCWS feature may not detect vehicles greater than 40 m
(130 ft.) away or closer than 5 m (16 ft.).
Lane Departure Warning System
WARNING
The lane departure warning system (LDWS) feature is for
information only and does not replace your responsibility to
observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic
regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The
LDWS relies on the camera to provide warnings for lane
markers and, as a result, may have limited functionality in low
visibility conditions.
The LDWS feature alerts you when the device detects you may
be crossing a lane boundary unintentionally. For example, the
device alerts you if you cross some solid painted lane
boundaries or cross into an incoming traffic lane. The LDWS
feature provides alerts only when your vehicle speed exceeds
64 km/h (40 mph). The alert appears on the left or right side of
the screen to indicate which lane boundary you crossed.
Advanced Driving Assistance System
Your device includes an advanced driving assistance system
(ADAS), which uses the integrated dash camera to provide
forward collision warnings and lane departure warnings while
you are driving.
Forward Collision Warning System
WARNING
The forward collision warning system (FCWS) feature is for
information only and does not replace your responsibility to
observe all road and driving conditions, abide by all traffic
regulations, and use safe driving judgment at all times. The
FCWS relies on the camera to provide a warning of upcoming
vehicles and, as a result, may have limited functionality in low
visibility conditions.
The FCWS feature alerts you when the device detects you are
not maintaining a safe distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front of you. The device determines your vehicle
speed using GPS and calculates an estimated safe following
distance based on your speed. The FCWS activates when your
vehicle speed exceeds 48 km/hr (30 mph).
When the device detects you are too close to the vehicle ahead
of you, the device plays an audible alert, and a warning appears
at the top of the screen.
Dash Camera 3
NOTE: For the best LDWS performance, you should set the
Camera Placement option to indicate the location of your device
in the vehicle.
Setting the Camera Placement
You can mount the device in the left, center, or right of your
windshield or dash. For the best LDWS performance, you
should set the Camera Placement option to indicate the location
of your device in the vehicle.
Select Settings > Camera > Camera Placement.
1
Select the location of the device.
2
Lane Departure Warning Performance Tips
Several factors affect the performance of the lane departure
warning system (LDWS). Some conditions may prevent the
LDWS feature from detecting lane departures.
• The LDWS feature provides alerts only when your vehicle
speed exceeds 64 km/h (40 mph).
• The LDWS feature does not provide alerts on certain types of
roads, such as highway ramps or merging lanes.
• The LDWS feature may not function properly if the camera is
incorrectly aligned (Aligning the Camera).
• The LDWS feature may not function properly if the Camera
Placement option does not correctly indicate the placement
of your device in the vehicle.
• The LDWS feature requires a clear, continuous view of the
lane divider lines.
◦ Lane departures may not be detected when divider lines
are obscured by rain, fog, snow, extreme shadows, sun or
headlight glare, road construction, or any other visual
obstruction.
◦ Lane departures may not be detected if lane divider lines
are misaligned, missing, or heavily worn.
• The LDWS feature may not detect lane departures on
extremely wide, narrow, or winding roads.
Navigating to Your Destination
Routes
A route is a path from your current location to a destination. A
route may include multiple locations, or stops, on the way to the
destination (Adding a Location to Your Route). The device
calculates the route to your destination based on the
preferences you select in the navigation settings, such as the
route calculation mode (Changing the Route Calculation Mode)
and avoidances (Avoiding Delays, Tolls, and Areas).
Instructions for your next turn or exit, or other action appear
across the top of the map. The symbol À indicates the type of
action and the lane or lanes in which you should be traveling, if
available. The device also displays the distance to the next
action Á and the name of the street or exit associated with that
action Â.
A colored line à highlights the course of your route on the map.
Arrows on the map Ä indicate upcoming turns. When you
approach your destination, a checkered flag indicates the
location of your destination.
Your vehicle speed Å, the road on which you are traveling Æ,
and your estimated arrival time Ç appear at the bottom of the
map. You can customize the arrival time data field to display
other information (Changing the Map Data Field).
A data field displaying the speed limit may appear as you travel
on major roadways. This feature is not available in all areas.

camera.
Some conditions may prevent this feature from appearing.
• This feature is not available in all areas or for all types of
destinations.
• This feature may not appear for destinations far from the
route or road, close to a turn or maneuver, or located on a
very curvy or hilly road.
• This feature may not appear when the road or destination is
obscured by weather, vegetation, or other obstructions.
• This feature may not appear in very bright or dark
environments.

Trip Planner
You can use the trip planner to create and save a trip, which you
can navigate later. This can be useful for planning a delivery
route, a vacation, or a road trip. You can edit a saved trip to
further customize it, including reordering locations, optimizing
the order of stops, adding scheduling information, and adding
shaping points.
You can also use the trip planner to edit and save your active
route.
Planning a Trip
A trip can include many locations, and it must include at least a
starting point and a destination. The starting location is the
location from which you plan to start your trip. If you start
navigating the trip from a different location, the device gives you
the option to route to your starting location first. The destination
is the final location in the trip. For a round trip, the starting
location and destination can be the same. You can also include
additional locations, or stops, between your starting location and
your destination.
