Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the BSI system could
result in serious injury or death.
∙ The BSI system is not a replacement forproper driving procedure and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with vehicles
or objects. When changing lanes, always
use the side and rear mirrors and turn and
look in the direction you will move to en-
sure it is safe to change lanes. Never rely
solely on the BSI system.
∙ There is a limitation to the detection ca- pability of the radar or the sonar. Not
every moving object or vehicle will be de-
tected. Using the BSI system under some
road, ground, lane marker, traffic or
weather conditions could lead to im-
proper system operation. Always rely on
your own operation to avoid accidents.
∙ The BSI system operates above approxi- mately 37 mph (60 km/h).
The BSI system can help alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when chang-
ing lanes. The BSI system uses a camera
1installed
behind the windshield to monitor the lane
markers of your traveling lane and radar sen-
sors
2installed near the rear bumper to
detect other vehicles in an adjacent lane.
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h). If the system de-
tects a vehicle in the detection zone and your
vehicle is approaching the lane marker, the
BSI system provides an audible warning
(three times), flashes the side indicator light
and slightly applies 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

BSI SYSTEM OPERATION
If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the
detection zone, the side indicator light lo-
cated near the outside mirrors illuminates. If
your vehicle is approaching a lane marker, the
system chimes a sound (three times) and the
side indicator light flashes. Then the system
applies the brakes on one side of the vehicle
for a moment to help return the vehicle back
to the center of the lane. BSI operates re-
gardless of turn signal usage.
NOTE:
Warning and brake control will only be acti-
vated if the side indicator light is already
illuminated when your vehicle approaches a
lane marker. If another vehicle comes into
the detection zone after your vehicle has
crossed a lane marker, no warning or brake
control will be activated. For additional in-
formation, refer to “BSI driving situations”
in this section. The BSI system is typically
activated earlier than the Lane Departure
Prevention (LDP) system when your vehicle
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 Inter-
vention” is enabled in the “Driver Assistance”
menu on the vehicle information display. The
BSI ON indicator light
Aon the instrument
panel illuminates when the BSI system is
turned on.
The BSI system provides a chime and turns on
or flashes the side indicator light even if the
BSW system is off.

– When rain, snow or dirt adheres to thewindshield 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 cam- era unit. (For example: light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
– When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example: when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
∙ Do not use the BSI system under the fol- lowing conditions because the system
may not function properly.
– During bad weather (for example: 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 lane. – When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow.
– When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire conditions (e.g., tire
wear, low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, nonstandard
wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
∙ Do not use the BSI systems when towing a trailer.
∙ Excessive noise (e.g., audio system vol- ume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
BSI DRIVING SITUATIONS
Another vehicle approaching from
behind
Illustration 1: The side indicator light illumi-
nates 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.

Illustration 2: If the driver activates the turn
signal then the system chimes a sound (twice)
and the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the side
indicator light will flash but no chime will
sound when the other vehicle is detected.Illustration 3: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle is approaching a lane marker and a
vehicle is in the detection zone, the system
chimes a sound (three times), and the side
indicator light flashes. Then the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on one side to help
return the vehicle back to the center of the
driving lane.
NOTE:
Illustration 4: If you accelerate from a stop
with a vehicle in the detection zone, the
other vehicle may not be detected.

Overtaking another vehicle
Illustration 5: The side indicator light illumi-
nates if you overtake a vehicle and that ve-
hicle stays in the detection zone for approxi-
mately 3 seconds.
The radar sensors may not detect slower
moving vehicles if they are passed quickly.Illustration 6: If the driver activates the turn
signal while another vehicle is in the detection
zone, then the system chimes a sound (twice)
and the side indicator light flashes.
Illustration 7: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle approaches a lane marker while an-
other vehicle is in the detection zone the sys-
tem chimes a sound (three times) and the side
indicator light flashes. Then, the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on the appropriate
side to help return the vehicle back to the
center of the driving lane.

NOTE:
∙ Illustration 12: The BSI system will not
operate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detec-
tion zone. In this case, only the BSW sys-
tem operates.
∙ BSI braking will not operate or will stop
operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions:
– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the vehicle is accelerated dur-
ing BSI system operation.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the BCI system could
result in serious injury or death.
∙ The BCI system is not a replacement forproper driving procedure, is not designed
to prevent contact with vehicles or ob-
jects and does not provide full brake
power. When backing out of a parking
space, always use the side and rear mir-
rors and turn and look in the direction you
will move. Never rely solely on the BCI
system. ∙ There is a limitation to the detection ca-
pability of the radar or the sonar. Using
the BCI systems under some road,
ground, lane marker, traffic or weather
conditions could lead to improper system
operation. Always rely on your own op-
eration to avoid accidents.
The BCI system can help alert the driver of an
approaching vehicle or objects behind the ve-
hicle when the driver is backing out of a park-
ing space.
When the shift position is in R (Reverse) and
the vehicle speed is less than approximately
5 mph (8 km/h), the BCI system operates. The BCI system uses radar sensors
1in-
stalled on both sides near the rear bumper to
detect an approaching vehicle and sonar sen-
sors
2to detect objects in the rear.
The radar sensors
1detect an approaching
vehicle from up to approximately 49 ft (15 m)
away. The sonar sensors
2detect stationary
objects behind the vehicle up to approxi-
mately 4.9 ft (1.5 m)

If the radar detects a vehicle approaching
from the side or the sonar detects close sta-
tionary objects behind the vehicle, the system
gives visual and audible warnings. If the driver
does not apply the brakes, the system auto-
matically applies the brake for a moment
when the vehicle is moving backwards. After
the automatic brake application, the driver
must depress the brake pedal to maintain
brake pressure. If the driver’s foot is on the
accelerator pedal, the system pushes the ac-
celerator upward before applying the brake.
If you continue to press the accelerator, the
system will not engage the brake.
