disc. (Mix mode is a format in which data except
music is recorded on the first track and music data is
recorded on one other than the first track in a
session.)Play music data in other tracks.
Music cuts off or skips. The combination of writing software and hardware
might not match; or the writing speed, writing depth,
writing width, etc. might not match the specifications.Create a disc using different writing speed settings,
etc.
The system skips the selected track and moves to the

•The LDW system is primarily intended for
use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers in
certain roads, weather or driving condi-
tions.
•Do not use the LDW system under the fol-
lowing conditions as it may not function
properly:
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
etc.).
–When driving on slippery roads, such as
on ice or snow, etc.
–When driving on winding or uneven
roads.
–When there is a lane closure due to road
repairs.
–When driving in a makeshift or tempo-
rary lane.
–When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow.
–When driving without normal tire condi-
tions (for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels).
–When the vehicle is equipped with non-
original brake parts or suspension parts.
•The camera may not detect lane markers in
the following situations and the LDW sys-
tem may not operate properly.
–On roads where there are multiple par-
allel lane markers; lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
–On roads where the discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
–On roads where there are sharp curves.
–On roads where there are sharply con-
trasting 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 direction
does not align with the lane marker.
–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 the lane camera
unit.–When the headlights are not bright due
to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
–When strong light enters the lane cam-
era unit. (For example, the light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at sun-
rise or sunset.)
–When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
–When there is poor visibility. (For ex-
ample, due to insufficient illumination of
the road, or due to snow, rain, fog or
spray.
–When there is glare. (For example, from
oncoming traffic, the sun or reflection
when the road is wet).

Illustration 2:If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice) and the BSW
indicator light flashes. The BSW indicator light
continues to flash until the detected vehicles
leave the detection zone.
NOTE
•The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
•The brightness of the BSW indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.
•If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal, then
only the BSW indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. (SeeAnother vehicle ap-
proaching from behindlater in this section.)A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver acti-
vates the turn signal.
WARNING
•Do not use the BSW system when towing a
trailer because the system may not function
properly.
•Excessive noise (for example audio system
volume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
•The radar sensors may not be able to detect
and activate BSW when certain objects are
present such as:
–Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
–Several types of vehicles such as motor-
cycles
–Oncoming vehicles
–Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a stop.
–A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane
at a speed approximately the same as
your vehicle.
–A vehicle approaching rapidly from be-
hind.
–A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes
rapidly.
•Severe weather or road spray conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to detect
other vehicles.
•The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar sen-
sors may not detect vehicles in an adjacent
lane. When driving in a narrow lane, the
radar sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
•The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects, however objects
such as guardrails, walls, foliage and
parked vehicles may occasionally be de-
tected. This is a normal operating condition.

–Vehicles such as motorcycles, low
height vehicles, or high ground clear-
ance vehicles.
–Oncoming vehicles.
–Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a stop.
–A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane

–A vehicle that is too close to your ve-

•The radar sensors are designed to ignore

•The following conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other vehicles:
–Severe weather
–Road spray
–Ice build-up on the vehicle
–Frost build-up on the vehicle
–Dirt build- up on the vehicle
•Do not attach stickers (including transpar-
ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the radar sensors.
These conditions may reduce the ability of
the radar to detect other vehicles.
•Do not use the BSW system when towing a
trailer because the system may not function
properly.
•Excessive noise (e.g. audio system volume,
open vehicle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be heard.
•The BSW system may not provide a warning
for vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.
Another vehicle approaching from
behind
Illustration 1: The BSW indicator light illumi-
nates if a vehicle enters the detection zone from
behind in an adjacent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is travelling
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.

Narrow vehicles (including
motorcycles)
The ICC system has not yet detected the vehicle
ahead on the edge of the lane because of its
narrow width. The system will not brake for or
keep a following distance to this vehicle.
Obstructions and stationary vehicles
The ICC system does not brake for obstacles or
stationary vehicles. If, for example, the de-
tected vehicle turns a corner and reveals an
obstacle or stationary vehicle The ICC system
will not brake for these.
Crossing vehicles
The ICC system may detect vehicles that are
crossing your lane by mistake. Activating the
ICC system at traffic lights with crossing traffic,
for example, could cause your vehicle to pull
away unintentionally.

TIRE LABELING
Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place
standardized information on the sidewall of all
tires. This information identifies and describes
the fundamental characteristics of the tire and
also provides the tire identification number
(TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN
can be used to identify the tire in case of a
recall.
1Tire size (example: P215/60R16 94H)
1 P: The “P” indicates the tire is designed for
passenger vehicles. (Not all tires have this
information.)
2 Three-digit number (215): This number
gives the width in millimeters of the tire
from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
3 Two-digit number (60): This number,
known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire’s
ratio of height to width.
4 R: The “R” stands for radial.
5 Two-digit number (16): This number is the
wheel or rim diameter in inches.
6 Two- or three-digit number (94): This num-
ber is the tire’s load index. It is a mea-
surement of how much weight each tire
can support. You may not find this infor-
mation on all tires because it is not re-
quired by law.7 H: Tire speed rating. You should not drive
the vehicle faster than the tire speed rat-
ing.
