Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) Systemí
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver by monitoring
blind spots on both sides of the vehicle to the rear in certain situations such as when
changing lanes on roads and freeways.
The BSM system monitors the detection areas on both sides of the vehicle to the rear when
the vehicle speed is about 32 km/h (20 mph) or more, and notifies the driver of vehicles in
the detection area by illuminating the BSM warning light.
If the turn signal lever is operated in the direction the BSM warning light is illuminated, the
system warns the driver of the vehicle in the detection area with a beep sound.
A system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a warning. Refer to
Warning/Indicator Lights on page 4-22.Refer to Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System
Warning Beep on page 7-35.

Your vehicle
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the BSM system. Always look over your shoulder before
changing lanes:The BSM system can assist the driver in confirming the safety of the surroundings
but is not a complete substitute. The driver is responsible for assuring lane changes
and other maneuvers. Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is
traveling and the vehicle's surroundings.
NOTE
lThe BSM system does not operate when the vehicle speed is lower than about 32 km/h (20 mph).lThe radar sensors are equipped inside the rear bumper. (page 4-100)lThe system may not operate normally when towing a trailer. Turn off the system by operating the
BSM OFF switch when towing a trailer.

lIf the vehicle is driven on a road with less traffic and few vehicles that the radar sensors can
detect, the system may pause (The BSM OFF indicator light in the instrument panel flashes).
However, it does not indicate a malfunction.
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.
qBSM Warning Light
The blind spot monitoring system alerts the driver to the presence of another vehicle in an
adjacent lane using the BSM warning lights and the warning beep while the system is
operational.
BSM warning light
Equipped on the left and right door mirrors.
This warning light illuminates for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON.
If the BSM system detects a vehicle in the detection area while the vehicle is driven at a
speed of about 32 km/h (20 mph) or more, the BSM warning light illuminates on the side
of the vehicle where the rear on-coming vehicle is detected.
NOTE
lIf ice or snow adhere to the outer mirror surface, the BSM warning light may not be visible.lIf the door window glass is tinted, it may affect the visibility of the BSM warning light, making it
difficult to confirm the illumination of the light.
