detect, the system may pause (The BSM OFF indicator light in the instrument panel flashes).

lThe following conditions may affect the visibility of the BSM warning lights on the outside mirror,
making it difficult to confirm the illumination of the lights:
lIce or snow adheres to the surface of the outside mirrors.lThe door window glass is tinted.

of the vehicle where the rear on-coming vehicle is detected.
NOTE
