BLIND SPOT MONITOR
The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system
monitors a zone that covers the area adjacent
to the vehicle, that is not easily visible by the
driver and is designed to identify any object
overtaking the vehicle. Th e system uses a radar
on each side of the vehicle to identify any
overtaking vehicl e/object within the blind spot
area of the vehicle, while disregarding other
objects which may be stati onary or travelling in
the opposite direction, etc.
The radar monitors the ar ea extending from the
exterior mirror rearwards, to approximately 7
metres (23 feet) behind the rear wheels, and up
to 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) from the side of the
vehicle (the wi dth of a typical carriageway
lane).
Note: This radar sensor is approved in all RTTE
countries.
Note: The system covers an area of a fixed lane
width. If the lanes are narrower than a typical
carriageway lane, objects travelling in
non-adjacent lanes may be detected.
BSM automatically switches on and becomes
active when the vehicle is travelling at greater
than 16 km/h (10 mph) in a forward drive gear.
When the system initiates, it performs a
self-check, during which the warning icons in
the mirrors illuminate alternately for a short
period of time.
WARNINGS
The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM)
system is a supplement to, not a
replacement for, a safe driving style
and use of the exterior and rear-view mirrors.
It remains the driver's re sponsibility to detect
other vehicles, and their relative distance and
speed, when deciding whet her or not it is safe
to change lanes.
Please note that BSM may not be able
to give adequate wa rning of vehicles
approaching very quickly from behind
or vehicles that are be ing overtaken rapidly.
The radar sensors may be impaired
by rain, snow or road spray. This may
affect the sy stem's ability to reliably
detect a vehicle/object wi thin the blind spot. In
such conditions, take extra care when
changing lanes.
BSM may not be able to detect all
vehicles and may also detect objects,
such as roadside barriers, etc.
CAUTIONS
Ensure that the warning indicators in the
exterior mirrors are not obscured by
stickers or other objects.
Do not attach stickers or objects to the
rear bumpers, that may interfere with
the radar sensors.

BSM is designed to work most effectively when
driving on multi-lane highways.
If an object is identified by the system as being
an overtaking vehicle/object, an amber
warning icon ( 1) illuminates in the relevant
exterior mirror, to alert the driver that there is a
potential hazard in the vehicle's blind spot and
therefore, that a lane change might be
dangerous.
Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on
both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the
warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.
Note: BSM is automatically turned off when
reverse ( R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is
in park ( P), the vehicle is travelling below
16 km/h (10 mph) and also when the electrical
connector for the trailer socket is plugged in on
vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket.
When in these conditions, an amber warning
indicator within the exterior mirror is
displayed.Sensor blockage
The BSM system will automatically disable if
either of the sensors become completely
obscured, an amber wa rning indicator dot (2)
is displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM sensor blocked appears in the
message centre.
Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) and
will take at least two minutes of accumulated
time travelling above th is speed, to determine
that the sensor is blocked.
If the sensors become blocked, then please
check that there is nothing obscuring the rear
bumper and that it is cl ear from ice, frost and
dirt.
System fault
If a fault with one of the radar sensors is
detected, an amber warn ing indicator dot is
displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM not available is displayed in the
message centre.
Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the
radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the
whole system is disabled. If the fault is
temporary, the system will operate correctly
once the engine has been switched off and then
on again.
If a fault in the system occurs, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

AMBER warning indicators are for secondary
warnings, to indicate that a vehicle system is in
operation or that the driver must take action
and then seek qualified assistance.

Brake - Red
Illuminates when the ignition
system is on and the parking brake
is applied and/or the brake fluid is
low. The indicator will also illuminate when
there is a fault with the Electronic Brakeforce
Distribution (EBD) system.
If the indicator is illu minated and there are no
associated messages, it means that the parking
brake is applied.
If the indicator is illuminated and the message
PARK BRAKE ON is displayed, it means that the
parking brake is applied but the vehicle is
moving. Release the parking brake or stop the
vehicle when it is safe to do so.
If the indicator is illuminated and the message
LOW BRAKE FLUID with a red priority lamp is
displayed on the message centre, low brake
fluid is indicated. In this case, loss of braking in
one or both brake circ uits may be imminent.
Stop the vehicle gently and check and top-up
the brake fluid reservoir, using the
recommended fluid. If the warning message
remains, do not drive the vehicle until the brake
fault is rectified. Se ek qualified assistance
before continuing. See BRAKE FLUID CHECK
(page 206).
If the indicator is illuminated and the message
EBD FAULT (with red backlight) is displayed in
the message centre, a fault with the EBD
system is indicated. Stop the vehicle gently, as
soon as safety permit s and seek qualified
assistance.
Seat belt - Red
The warning indicator stays
illuminated when the ignition is on
and:
• The driver’s seat be lt is not fastened.
• Or a passenger is sitting in the front seat
and their seat belt is not fastened.
The indicator should extinguish when the
relevant seat belt is fastened.
Beltminder - Red
The beltminder feat ure, which uses
the same indicator as the seat belt
warning, provides reminders to the
driver that the driver’s and/or front passenger’s
seat belt is unbuckled.
If the vehicle is moving at or above 16 km/h (10
mph) and the seat belt of an occupied seat is
not fastened, the warning indicator will flash.
The flashing will last for ten seconds and then
repeat every 30 seconds for approximately five
minutes or until the belt(s ) is fastened or the
vehicle stops.
If the warning indicator stays illuminated with
the seat belt(s) fastened, seek qualified
assistance as s oon as possible. It is safe to
drive the vehicle with th e indicator illuminated,
provided that the seat belt(s) is properly
fastened.
Ensure that all occupants fasten their seat belt
before driving.
Note: If a heavy object is placed on the front
passenger seat, it may activate the Beltminder
feature. It is recommended that the object be
placed in the luggage compartment.
WARNING
If the message LOW BRAKE FLUID is
displayed, check the brake fluid level
and top-up as necessary. Do not drive
the vehicle until the brake fault is rectified.
Seek qualified assistan ce before continuing.
