BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on the
inner side of the rear bumper
on the left and right side to
assist the driver in confirming
safety when changing lanes.
WA R N I N G
■Cautions regarding the use of the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely, tak- ing care to observe your
surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a supple-
mentary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is in a blind spot of the outside rear view mirrors or is
approaching rapidly from behind into
a blind spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot Monitor. As the function
cannot judge if it is safe to change
lanes, over reliance could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
As the system may not function cor-
rectly under certain conditions, the
driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.

spray or heavy rain.
●If objects draw too close to the sensor.
●When a pedestrian is wearing clothing that does not reflect ultrasonic waves
(ex. skirts with ga thers or frills).
●When objects that are not perpendicu-
lar to the ground, not perpendicular to
the vehicle traveling direction, une- ven, or waving are in the detection
range.
●Strong wind is blowing
●When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●When an object that cannot be detected is between the vehicle and a
detected object
●If an object such as a vehicle, motor-
cycle, bicycle or pedestrian cuts in
front of the vehicle or runs out from the side of the vehicle
●If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact
●When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an addi- tional trim strip, et c.), bicycle carrier,or
snow plow
●If the front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered due to the carried load
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a
stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
