5-34Starting and driving
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h). If the system
detects a vehicle in the detection zone and
your vehicle is approaching the lane
marker, the BSI system provides an audi-
ble warning (three times), flashes the
BSW/BSI indicator light and slightly ap-
plies the brakes for a short period of time
on one side to help return the vehicle back
to the traveling lane. The BSI system
provides an audible warning and turns on
or flashes the BSW/BSI indicator light even
if the BSW system is off.
WARNING
.The BSW and BSI systems are not a
replacement for proper driving procedure
and are not designed to prevent contact
with vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direc-
tion you will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW or BSI system.
. Using the BSI system under some road,
lane marker or weather conditions could
lead to improper system operation. Al-
ways rely on your own steering and braking operation to avoid accidents.
. The BSW and BSI systems may not
provide a warning or brake control for
vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.

BSW/BSI indicator light
BSW SYSTEM OPERATIONY51D-V-E01-32E603AE-BDF4-490E-B5AC-9FF1A64159F4If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If the turn signal is then activated,
the BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and a
chime sounds twice. The indicator light
continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
The BSW/BSI indicator lights illuminate for
a few seconds when the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW/BSI indicator
lights is adjusted automatically depending

on the brightness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
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
BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. (See“BSW/BSI driving
situations” (P.5-40).)

Warning systems switch
The warning systems switch is used to turn
on and off the BSW system when it is
activated using the settings menu on the
center display. See “How to enable/disable
the BSW system using the settings menu”
(P.5-36).
When the warning systems switch is turned
off, the indicator
*1on the switch is off.
The indicator will also be off if the BSW, the
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and the
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) systems
are deactivated.
For the LDW and FCW systems, see “Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system/Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system”
(P.5-
23) and “Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
system” (P.5-83).

BSI SYSTEM OPERATIONY51D-V-E01-96B4C4EA-DE72-44A7-840F-25C8167EECC1If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the
detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If your vehicle is approaching a lane
marker, the BSW/BSI indicator light
flashes and an audible warning will sound
three times. Then the system applies the
brakes on one side of the vehicle for a
short period of time to help return the
vehicle back to the center of the lane. BSI
operates regardless of turn signal usage.NOTE:
.
Warning and system application of the
brakes will only be activated if the
BSW/BSI indicator light is already
illuminated when your vehicle ap-
proaches a lane marker. If another
vehicle comes into the detection zone
after your vehicle has crossed a lane
marker, no warning or brake applica-
tion will be activated. (See “BSW/BSI
driving situations” (P.5-40).)
. The BSI system is typically activated
earlier than the Lane Departure Pre-
vention (LDP) system when your vehi-
cle is approaching a lane marker.
The BSI system turns on when the dynamic
driver assistance switch on the steering
wheel is pushed when the “Blind Spot
Intervention” is enabled in the settings
menu on the center display. The BSI ON
indicator light (green) on the instrument
panel illuminates when the BSI system is
turned on.
The BSI system provides an audible warn-
ing and flashes the indicator light when
BSI is activated even if the BSW system is
off.

—On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling direc-
tion does not align with the lane
markers.
— When traveling close to the vehicle
in front of you, which obstructs the
lane camera unit detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to
the windshield in front of a lane
camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright
due to dirt on the lens or if aiming is
not adjusted properly.
— When strong light enters a lane
camera unit. (For example, light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in bright-
ness occurs. (For example, when the
vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or
under a bridge.)

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.
