approaching vehicle in the driver’s blind spot before changing lanes . The light
on the BCW button A will illuminate when turned ON . The outside rearview
mirror warning lights will also illuminate for 3 seconds .
The system will become active when the vehicle is traveling more than

by the radar sensor .
1st-stage alert: When another vehicle is detected within the BCW boundary B,
or when a vehicle is detected within the LCA boundary C, a yellow indicator
will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors .

a flashing yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the
