*3: Displayed when system detects driv-
ing on ramp way.
In the following situations, the RSA
system will notify the driver.
 When the vehicle speed exceeds
the speed notification threshold
of the speed limit sign displayed,
the sign display will be empha-
sized and a buzzer will sound.
 When the RSA system recog-
nizes a no-entry sign and detects
that the vehicle has entered a
no-entry area based on the map
information of the navigation sys-
tem, the no-entry sign flashes
and a buzzer will sound. (For
vehicles with 7-inch/8-inch dis-
play navigation system)
 If it is detected that your vehicle
is overtaking when a no overtak-
ing sign is displayed on the multi-
information display, the dis-
played sign will flash and a
buzzer will sound.
Depending on the situation, traffic
environment (traffic direction,
speed unit) may be detected incor-
rectly and a notification function
may not operate properly.

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.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, tak-
ing care to observe your surround- ings.
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.

blind spot, the outside rear view mirror
indicator on the detected side will illumi-
nate. If the turn signal lever is operated
toward the detected side, the outside
rear view mirror indicator flashes.

■Outside rear view mirror indicator visibility
In strong sunlight, the outside rear view mirror indicator may be difficult to see.
■When “Blind Spot Monitor Unavail-able See Owner’s Manual” is
shown on the multi-information display
Ice, snow, mud, etc., may be attached to
the rear bumper around the sensors. ( P.249) The system should return to normal operation after removing the ice,
snow, mud, etc., from the rear bumper. Additionally, the sensors may not oper-ate normally when driving in extremely
hot or cold environments.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
■Vehicles that can be detected by the Blind Spot Monitor
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect t he following
vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of the presence
of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear view mi rrors.
Vehicles that are traveling in areas that are not visible using the outside
rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
Vehicles that are approaching rapidly from behind in areas that are not
visible using the outside rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
■The Blind Spot Monitor detection areas
The areas that vehicles can be detected in are outlined below.
The range of each detection area is:
Approximately 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) to 3.5 m (11.5 ft.) from either s ide of the
vehicle*1
Approximately 1 m (3.3 ft.) forward of the rear bumper
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) from the rear bumper

252
HV Owner's Manual_Europe_M52N30_en
4-5. Using the driving support systems
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) to 60 m (197 ft.) from the rear bumper*2
*1: The area between the side of the vehicle and 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) from the side of the
vehicle cannot be detected.
*2: The greater the difference in speed between your vehicle and t he detected vehi-
cle is, the farther away the vehicle will be detected, causing the outside rear view
mirror indicator to illuminate or flash.
■The Blind Spot Monitor is opera- tional when
The Blind Spot Monitor is operational when all of the following conditions are met:
●The Blind Spot Monitor is on.
●The shift lever is in a position other than R.
●The vehicle speed is greater than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph).
■The Blind Spot Monitor will detect a vehicle when
The Blind Spot Monitor will detect a vehicle present in the detection area in the following situations:
●A vehicle in an adjacent lane over-takes your vehicle.
●You overtake a vehicle in adjacent lane slowly.
●Another vehicle enters the detection area when it changes lanes.
■Conditions under which the system
will not detect a vehicle
The Blind Spot Monitor is not designed to detect the following types of vehicles
and/or objects:
●Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans, etc.*
●Vehicles traveling in the opposite
direction
●Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehi-
cles and similar stationary objects*
●Following vehicles that are in the
same lane*
●Vehicles traveling 2 lanes away from
your vehicle*
●Vehicles which are being overtaken
rapidly by your vehicle*
*: Depending on the conditions, detec-
tion of a vehicle and/or object may
occur.
■Conditions under which the system
may not function correctly
●The Blind Spot Monitor may not detect
vehicles correctly in the following situ- ations:• When the sensor is misaligned due to
a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding area• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc.,
is covering the sensor or surrounding area on the rear bumper• When driving on a road surface that is
wet with standing water during bad weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
• When multiple vehicles are approach- ing with only a small gap between each vehicle
• When the distance between your vehi- cle and a following vehicle is short• When there is a significant difference
in speed between your vehicle and the vehicle that enters the detection area
• When the difference in speed between your vehicle and another vehicle is changing
• When a vehicle enters a detection area traveling at about the same speed as your vehicle
• As your vehicle starts from a stop, a vehicle remains in the detection area• When driving up and down consecu-
tive steep inclines, such as hills, dips in the road, etc.

bends, consecutive curves, or uneven surfaces• When vehicle lanes are wide, or when
driving on the edge of a lane, and the vehicle in an adjacent lane is far away from your vehicle
• When towing a trailer • When an accessory (such as a bicycle carrier) is installed to the rear of the
vehicle • When there is a significant difference in height between your vehicle and
the vehicle that enters the detection area• Immediately after the Blind Spot Moni-
tor is turned on
●Instances of the Blind Spot Monitor
unnecessarily detecting a vehicle and/or object may increase in the fol-lowing situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding area
• When the distance between your vehi- cle and a guardrail, wall, etc., that enters the detection area is short
• When driving up and down consecu- tive steep inclines, such as hills, dips in the road, etc.
• When vehicle lanes are narrow, or when driving on the edge of a lane, and a vehicle traveling in a lane other
than the adjacent lanes enters the detection area• When driving on roads with sharp
bends, consecutive curves, or uneven surfaces• When the tires are slipping or spinning
• When the distance between your vehi- cle and a following vehicle is short• When an accessory (such as a bicycle
carrier) is installed to the rear of the vehicle
