BSM (Blind Spot Monitor)
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 confirm-
ing safety when changing lanes.
WARNING
■
Cautions regarding the use of the sys-
tem
The driver is solely responsible for safe
driving. Always drive safely, taking care
to observe your surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a supplemen-
tary function which alerts the driver that a
vehicle is in a blind spot of the outside
rear view mirrors or is approaching rap-
idly 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 correctly
under certain conditions, the driver’s own
visual confirmation of safety is necessary.

sibly cause an accident.
●
Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 6 mph (10 km/h).
●
The sensors’ detection areas and reac-
tion times are limited. When moving
forward or reversing, check the areas
surrounding the vehicle (especially the
sides of the vehicle) for safety, and
drive slowly, using the brake to control
the vehicle’s speed.
●
Do not install accessories within the
sensors’ detection areas.
●
The area directly under the bumpers is
not detected.
■
When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the
function as it may operate even though
there is no possibility of a collision.
●
The vehicle is equipped with a fender
pole, wireless antenna or fog lights.
●
The front or rear bumper or a sensor
receives a strong impact.
●

■
If “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean
Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed on
the multi-information display
A sensor may be covered with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. Remove the ice, snow, dirt, etc.,
from the sensor to return the system to nor-
mal.
Also, due to ice forming on a sensor at low
temperatures, a warning message may be
displayed or the sensor may not be able to
detect an object. Once the ice melts, the
system will return to normal.
■
Sensor detection information
●
The following situations may occur
during use.
• The sensors may be able to only detect
objects near the front and rear bumpers.
• Depending on the shape of the object
and other factors, the detection distance
may shorten, or detection may be impos-
sible.
• There will be a short delay between
object detection and display. Even at low
speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within the sensor’s
detection areas before the display is
shown and the warning beep sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due
to the volume of the audio system or air
flow noise of the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the buzzer if
buzzers for other systems are sounding.
■
Conditions under which the function
may not function correctly
Certain vehicle conditions and the sur-
rounding environment may affect the ability
of a sensor to correctly detect objects. Par-
ticular instances where this may occur are
listed below.
●
There is dirt, snow or ice on a sensor.
(Cleaning the sensors will resolve this
problem.)
●
A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will
resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is
frozen the sensor display may be dis-
played abnormally, or objects, such as a
wall, may not be detected.
●
A sensor is covered in any way.
●
When a sensor or the area around a sen-
sor is extremely hot or cold.
●
On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass.
WARNING
●
If the area around a sensor collides
with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.
●
If the bumper or grille collides with
something.
●
If the display flashes or is displayed
continuously and a buzzer does not
sound, except when the mute function
has been turned on.
●
If a display error occurs, first check the
sensor.
If the error occurs even when there is
no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is
likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.

Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or
steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor mal-
functioning.
●
When using a high pressure washer to
wash the vehicle, do not spray the sen-
sors directly, as doing so may cause a
sensor to malfunction.
●
When using steam to clean the vehicle,
do not direct steam too close to the
sensors as doing so may cause a sen-
sor to malfunction.
