Blind Spot Monitoring System
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM) (if equipped)
The 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.
Turning BSM System Off
Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light
and sound indicators. To manually turn the BSM
system off, push the BSM OFF switch on the dash.
The BSM OFF indicator in the instrument cluster will
turn on to indicate when the BSM system is off. The
BSM system will automatically turn on the next time the vehicle is started.
• If your vehicle speed is 7 mph (11 km/h) or more, the BSM will warn
you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the BSM warning
lights located on the left and right door mirrors.
• If you operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated BSM warning
light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning light flash.
• BSM sensors are located under the left and right rear bumper areas.
The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper gets dirty,
so keep the rear bumper area clean and free of bumper stickers.
Your Vehicle
Detection Areas
Refer to your
Owner’s Manual for
complete details.
NOTE: • The BSM can assist the driver in confirming the safety of the surroundings,
but is not a complete substitute.
• The driver is responsible for ensuring safe lane changes and other maneuvers.
• Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling and the
vehicle’s surroundings.
• The BSM does not operate when the vehicle speed is lower than about
7 mph (11 km/h).
WARNING: BSM is only a supplementary system to help aid in monitoring blind
spots , however BSM has limitations. The system may not detect all vehicles,
especially a motorcycle. Do not rely solely on the BSM . Relying solely on the BSM
may cause an unexpected accident resulting in death or serious injury. Make sure to
look over your shoulder before changing lanes.
