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.

GARAGE DOOR TRANSCEIVERThe door transceiver is located in the rear-view
mirror. It can be programmed to transmit the
radio frequencies of up to three different
transmitters, which can be used to activate
garage doors, entry ga tes, home lighting,
security systems or other radio frequency
operated devices.
Although this section mainly describes the
procedures for a garage door opener, it also
equally applies to the previously mentioned
applications.
In some countries, this feature is also known
as the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.
For further information, see Information and
Assistance later in this section.
Before programming
For best results, fit a new battery to the
hand-held transmitter of the garage door
opener (or other device ) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver (located in
the garage) is equippe d with an antenna,
ensure that the antenna is hanging straight
down.
WARNINGS
Do not use the transceiver with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
When programming the transceiver
to a garage door opener or entry gate,
ensure the area is clear. This will
prevent potential harm or damage as the gate
or garage door will activate during the
programme.
CAUTION
This device may suffer from interference
if operated in the vici nity of a mobile or
fixed station transmitter. This interference is
likely to affect the hand-held transmitter as
well as the in-car transceiver.
E95122
CAUTION
When programming a device that may
require you to press and re-press the
hand-held transmitte r (cycle), unplug the
device during the cycling process to prevent
possible motor failure.

To erase all programming
For first time programming, ensure that the
engine is switched off:
1.Ensure that the ignition system is in
convenience mode.
2. Press and hold the two outer buttons on
the transceiver in th e rear-view mirror.
Keep the buttons pressed until the
indicator lamp begins to flash (this will
take approximately 20 seconds), then
release the buttons.
All memories in the gara ge door opener have
now been cleared.
Note: Do not perform this procedure when
programming the addi tional garage door
opener buttons.
Programming
Ensuring that the engine is switched off:
1. Ensure that the ignition system is on.
2. Hold the end of the original garage door
opener hand-held transmitter
approximately 50 to 150 mm (2 to 6
inches) away from the transceiver in the
rear-view mirror, keeping the indicator
lamp in view. 3.
Using both hands , simultaneously press
and hold both the chosen transceiver
button on the rear-view mirror, as shown
above, and the hand-held transmitter
button. Keep both buttons pressed. The
indicator lamp will flash slowly at first and
then change to a fast flash. When the
indicator lamp flashes rapidly, release both
buttons. The rapid flas hing lamp indicates
successful programming.
4. If, after 60 seconds, the indicator lamp
does not flash rapidl y, release both the
transceiver and the hand-held transmitter
buttons and repeat the procedure starting
with Step 2. Position the hand-held
transmitter at a diffe rent angle and/or
distance.
5. Press and hold the programmed garage
door opener button and observe the
indicator lamp.
•If the indicator is continuous,
programming is complete and your
device should activate when the garage
door opener button is pressed and held
for approximately 1 to 2 seconds and
then released.
• If the indicator lamp blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns a
continuous light, pr oceed with the
following programming instructions for
rolling code device equipment.

Rolling code device equipment
programming
Note: The assistance of a second person, may
make the following steps quicker and easier.
Once the button has been pressed there are
only 30 seconds in which to complete Step 3.
1. At the garage door opener receiver (motor
head unit) in the garage, locate the learn or
smart button/switch.
•The name of the button or switch may
vary between manufacturers.
2. Press and release the learn or smart
button.
3. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and
hold the programmed garage door opener
button for two seconds and release.
4. Repeat the press, hol d, release sequence
three times to complete the programming
process.
The garage door opener in the rear-view mirror
should now activate the rolling code device.
Reprogramming a single garage door
opener button
To programme a device to a previously trained
button:
1. Press and hold the desired
pre-programmed garage door opener
button for at least 20 seconds, but no
longer than 30 seconds, until the indicator
lamp begins to flash.
2. Without releasing th e rear-view mirror
button, position the hand-held transmitter
approximately 50 to 150 mm (2 to 6
inches) away from the transceiver in the
rear-view mirror, keeping the indicator
lamp in view.
3. Carry out Step 3 of Programming .
Entry gate programming
The technology of some entry gates requires
you to press and re-press (cycle) the hand-held
transmitter button ever y two seconds during
programming.
Continue to press and hold the desired
rear-view mirror button while you cycle your
hand-held transmitter unt il the indicator lamp
flashes rapidly.
