i-ACTIVSENSE*
▼i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term
covering a series of advanced safety and
driver support systems which make use of
cameras and sensors. The systems consist
of active safety and pre-crash safety
systems.
These systems are designed to assist the
driver in safer drivi
ng by reducing the load
on the driver and helping to avert
collisions or reduce their severity.
However, because each system has its
limitations, always drive carefully and do
not rely solely on the systems.
▼ Active Safety Technology
Active Safety Technology supports safer
driving by helping the driver to recognize
potential hazards and avert accidents.

You may not be able to hear the LDWS
warning sound depending on the
surrounding conditions such as outside
noise.
If you set the LDWS to vibrate the
steering wheel, you may not feel the
vibrations depending on the road
surface conditions.

time the ignition is switched ON.
Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM)
*
▼Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
The BSM is designed to assist the driver in
checking the area to the rear of the vehicle
on both sides during lane changes by
notifying the driver of the presence of
vehicles approaching
from the rear in an
adjacent lane.
BSM operation
The BSM detects vehicles approaching
from the rear while traveling in the
forward direction at a speed of 10 km/h
(6.3 mph) or faster and notifies the driver
by turning on the BSM warning indicator
light and displaying the vehicle detection
screen.
If the turn signal lever is operated to signal
a turn in the direction in which the BSM
warning indicator light is illuminated
while the approaching vehicle is detected,
the BSM notifies the driver of possible
danger flashing on the BSM warning
indicator light, and by activating the
warning sound and the warning screen
indicator display.
