– When strong light enters the lanecamera unit. (For example, the light
directly shines on the front of the ve-
hicle at sunrise or sunset.)
– When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example, when the ve-
hicle enters 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 direc-
tion of the signal. (The LDP system will be
deactivated for approximately 2 seconds
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

5-52Starting and driving
•The BSI system is typically activated ear-
lier than the Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) system when your vehicle is ap-
proaching a lane marker.
The BSI system turns on when the ProPILOT
Assist switch on the steering wheel, is pushed
when the “Blind Spot Intervention” is enabled
in the “Driver Assistance” menu in the lower
display. The BSI ON indicator on the instru-
ment panel illuminates when the BSI system
is turned on. The BSI system provides a chime
and turns on or flashes the side indicator light
even if the BSW system is off.
HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE
BSI SYSTEMWhen the BSI system is enabled in the lower
display, the system can be turned off tempo-
rarily by pushing the ProPILOT Assist switch
on the steering wheel.

BSI SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the BSI system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
• The BSI system cannot detect all vehicles
under all conditions. •
The radar sensors may not be able to de-
tect and activate BSI when certain ob-
jects are present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, or animals.
– Vehicles such as motorcycles, low
height vehicles, or high ground clear-
ance vehicles.
– Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop. For additional information, see
“BSI driving situations” (P. 5-59).
– Oncoming vehicles.
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle. For additional
information, see “BSI driving situa-
tions” (P. 5-59).
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind. For additional information,
see “BSI driving situations” (P. 5-59).
– A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly. For additional infor-
mation, see “BSI driving situations”
(P. 5-59).
– A vehicle that passes through the de-
tection zone quickly. •
The radar sensor’s detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an ad-
jacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
• The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects; however, ob-
jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage
and parked vehicles may occasionally be
detected. This is a normal driving
condition.
• The following conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other ve-
hicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the vehicle
• Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
Starting and driving5-57
NOTE:
• Illustration 12: The BSI system will not op-erate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detection
zone. In this case, only the BSW system
operates.
• BSI braking will not operate or will stop operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions:– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the vehicle is accelerated during BSI system operation.
– When steering quickly. – When the PFCW or FEB with Pedes-
trian Detection warnings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
