BLIND SPOT MONITORING WITH REAR CROSS PATH
• The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located insidethe rear bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks,
motorcycles etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of the vehicle.
• The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system warning light, located in the outside mirrors, will illuminate if a vehicle moves into a blind spot zone.
• The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the radio to notify you of objects that have entered the detection zones.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
