system.
. The LDW system is only a warning
device to help inform the driver of a
potential unintended lane depar-
ture. It will not steer the vehicle or
prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, keep the vehicle in the
traveling lane, and be in control of
the vehicle at all times.
. The camera unit may not function
properly under the following condi-
tions:
— When towing a trailer.
— When strong light enters the
camera unit. (for example, light
directly shines on the rear of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
— When ambient brightness changes suddenly. (for example,
when the vehicle enters or exits
a tunnel or passes under a
bridge.)
. If the camera lens is excessively
dirty, the automatic washer may not
be able to completely clean the lens.
This could result in the camera not
detecting vehicles or lane markers. .
Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.

BSW SYSTEM OPERATIONGUID-57C34072-19AD-4F92-8527-4EC338107115The BSW system operates above approximately
20 MPH (32 km/h) .
When the camera unit detects vehicles in the
detection zone, the Blind Spot Indicator light
located inside the outside mirrors will illuminate.
If the turn signal is then activated, the system
chimes (twice) .
SSD1026
Detection zoneGUID-EDF6517E-4B22-4DBC-B7D0-02DAE5036383The camera unit can detect vehicles on either
side of your vehicle when part of another vehicle
is within the detection zone shown as illustrated.
This detection zone typically starts from the
outside mirror of your vehicle and extends
approximately 10 ft (3 m) behind the rear
bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3 m) sideways.
NOTE:
The Blind Spot Indicator light will illumi-
nate for a few seconds when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position.
The brightness of the Blind Spot Indicator lights
is adjusted automatically depending on thebrightness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the camera unit has already
detected vehicles when the driver activates the
turn signal. If a vehicle comes into the detection
zone after the driver activates the turn signal,
then only the Blind Spot Indicator light flashes
and no chime sounds. (See “BSW driving
situations” later in this section.)

WARNING
.The camera unit may not be able to
detect when certain objects are
present such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals — Some types of small vehicles
such as motorcycles and very
short length vehicles
— Oncoming vehicles
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind. (See “BSW driving
situations” later in this section.)
— A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly. (See “BSW
driving situations” later in this
section.)
— A vehicle that merges or changes lanes rapidly directly
next to your vehicle.
. The camera unit may not be able to
detect properly when your vehicle
travels beside the middle section of
a vehicle with long wheelbase (for
example, trailer truck, semi-trailer,
tractor) .
. The camera detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the camera unit may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When
driving in a narrow lane, the camera
unit may detect vehicles driving two lanes away.
. The camera unit is designed to
ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This
is a normal operating condition.
. The camera unit may detect the
reflected image of vehicles or road-
side objects that are not actually in
the detection zone, especially when
the road is wet.

GUID-00E249DA-9844-4822-9276-0651918C72BDThe Blind Spot Indicator light illuminates if a
vehicle enters the detection zone from behind in
an adjacent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is traveling
much faster than your vehicle, the indicator light
may not illuminate before the detected vehicle is
beside your vehicle. Always use the side and
rear mirrors and turn and look in the direction
your vehicle will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes.
SSD1031
If the driver activates the turn signal, then the
Blind Spot Indicator light flashes and a chime
will sound twice.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the
Blind Spot Indicator light will flash but no
chime will sound when the other vehicle is
detected.

Overtaking other vehiclesGUID-71136E60-FC62-41A7-9C97-97A64104428CThe Blind Spot Indicator light illuminates if you
overtake a vehicle and that vehicle stays in the
detection zone for approximately 3 seconds.
The camera unit may not detect slower moving
vehicles if they are passed quickly.

WARNING
.The camera unit may not be able to
detect properly under the following
conditions:
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; nonstandard lane
markers; or lane markers cov-
ered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where the discontin- ued lane markers are still de-
tectable.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are shar- ply contrasting objects, such as
shadows, snow, water, wheel
ruts, seams or lines remaining
after road repairs. (The LDW
system could detect these items
as lane markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When the road surface is very dark due to weak ambient light
or impaired tail lamp.
. When driving on a curved road,
warning will be late on the outside
