∙ When a sudden change in brightness oc-curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
While the LDP system is operating, you may
hear a sound of brake operation. This is nor-
mal and indicates that the LDP system is
operating properly.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
Condition A:
The warning and assist functions of the LDP
system are not designed to work under the
following conditions: ∙ When you operate the lane change signal and change the traveling lanes in the di-
rection of the signal. (The LDP system will
be deactivated for approximately 2 sec-
onds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
∙ When the vehicle speed lowers to less than approximately 37 mph (60 km/h).
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are satis-
fied, the warning and assist functions will
resume. Condition B:
The assist function of the LDP system is not
designed to work under the following condi-
tions (warning is still functional):
∙ When the brake pedal is depressed.
∙ When the steering wheel is turned as far as necessary for the vehicle to change
lanes.
∙ When the vehicle is accelerated during LDP system operation.
∙ When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) approach warning occurs.
∙ When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
∙ When driving on a curve at high speed.
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are satis-
fied, the LDP system application of the
brakes will resume. Condition C:
If the following messages appear in the ve-
hicle information display the LDP system will
be turned off automatically:
∙ “Not Available Poor Road Conditions”: When the VDC system (except Traction
Control System [TCS] function) or ABS
operates.
∙ “Currently not available”: When the VDC system is turned off.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
turn off the LDP system. Push the dynamic
driver assistance switch (for vehicles without
ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist) on
the steering wheel again to turn the LDP
system back on.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the BSW system
could result in serious injury or death.
∙ The BSW system is not a replacement forproper driving procedures 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 your vehicle will
move to ensure it is safe to change lanes.
Never rely solely on the BSW system.
The BSW system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when chang-
ing lanes. The BSW system uses radar sensors
1in-
stalled near the rear bumper to detect other
vehicles in an adjacent lane. The radar sensors can detect vehicles on ei-
ther side of your vehicle within the detection
zone shown as illustrated. This detection
zone starts from the outside mirror of your
vehicle and extends approximately 10 ft
(3.0 m) behind the rear bumper, and approxi-
mately 10 ft (3.0 m) sideways.

WARNING
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 for
proper 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 helps alert the driver of other
vehicles in adjacent lanes when changing
lanes and helps assist the driver to return the
vehicle to the center of the traveling lane.

– On roads where there are sharply con-trasting objects, such as shadows,
snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road repairs.
– On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
– When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with the lane markers.
– 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 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 (e.g., light directly shines on
the front of the vehicle at sunrise or
sunset).
– When a sudden change in brightness occurs (e.g., 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 (e.g., 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 system when towing a trailer. ∙ Excessive noise (e.g., audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will interfere

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 theside 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.
