–

On roads where the traveling lane

merges or separates.

–

When the vehicle’s traveling direc-

tion does not align with the lane
marker.

–

When traveling close to the ve-

hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit de-
tection range.

–

When rain, snow or dirt adheres to

the windshield in front of the lane
camera unit.

–

When the headlights are not bright

due to dirt on the lens or if the aim-
ing is not adjusted properly.

–

When strong light enters the lane

camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the front of
the vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)

–

When a sudden change in bright-

ness occurs. (For example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)

While the I-LI system is operating, you may
hear a sound of brake operation. This is
normal and indicates that the I-LI system is
operating properly.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE

Condition A:

The warning and assist functions of the I-LI
system are not designed to work under the
following conditions:
• When you operate the lane change signal

and change the traveling lanes in the di-
rection of the signal. (The I-LI system will
be deactivated for approximately 2 sec-
onds 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 satisfied, the warning and assist func-
tions will resume.

Condition B:

The assist function of the I-LI system is not
designed to work under the following con-
ditions (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

I-LI 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 satisfied, the I-LI system application of
the brakes will resume.

Condition C:

If the following messages appear in the
vehicle information display, the I-LI system
will be turned off automatically.
• “Unavailable Road is Slippery”:

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the BSW
system could result in serious injury or
death.

•

The BSW system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is
not designed to prevent contact with
vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the di-
rection your vehicle will move to en-
sure it is safe to change lanes. Never
rely solely on the BSW system.

The BSW system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when
changing lanes.

The BSW system uses radar sensors

O

1

installed near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane.

The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the detec-
tion zone shown as illustrated. This detec-
tion zone starts from the outside mirror of
your vehicle and extends approximately 10
ft (3.0 m) behind the rear bumper, and ap-
proximately 10 ft (3.0 m) sideways.

Starting and driving

1. Side BSW/RCTA Indicator Light

2. BSW/RCTA Indicator

BSW SYSTEM OPERATION

The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 mph (32km/h).

If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side BSW/RCTA indica-
tor light (1) illuminates. If the turn signal is
then activated, the system chimes (twice)
and the side BSW/RCTA indicator light
flashes. The side BSW/RCTA indicator light
continues to flash until the detected ve-
hicle leaves the detection zone.

The side BSW/RCTA indicator light illumi-
nates for a few seconds when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position.

The brightness of the side BSW/RCTA indi-
cator light is adjusted automatically de-
pending on the brightness of the ambient
light.

If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal,
then only the side BSW/RCTA indicator light
flashes and no chime sounds. For addi-
tional information, see “BSW driving situa-
tions” (P. 5-40).

The BSW system automatically turns on
every time the engine is started, as long as
it is activated using the settings menu on
the vehicle information display.

also disabled.

• When the BSW system is turned on, the

BSW/RCTA indicator (white) in the ve-
hicle information display illuminates.

BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations
for the BSW system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death.

•

The BSW system cannot detect all ve-
hicles under all conditions.

•

The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when cer-
tain objects are present such as:

–

Pedestrian, bicycles, animals.

–

Vehicles such as motorcycles, low

height vehicles, or high ground
clearance vehicles.

–

Oncoming vehicles.

–

Vehicles remaining in the detec-

tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop.

–

A vehicle merging into an adjacent

lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.

–

A

vehicle

approaching

rapidly

from behind.

–

A vehicle which your vehicle over-

takes rapidly.

–

A vehicle that passes through the

detection zone quickly.

–

When overtaking several vehicles

in a row, the vehicles after the first
vehicle may not be detected if
they are traveling close together.

•

The radar sensors’ detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect ve-
hicles in an adjacent lane. When driv-
ing in a narrow lane, the radar sen-
sors may detect vehicles driving two
lanes away.

•

The radar sensors are designed to ig-
nore most stationary objects; how-
ever, objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This is
a normal operation condition.

•

The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:

–

Severe weather

–

Road spray

–

Ice/frost/snow/dirt build-up on

the vehicle

•

Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install acces-
sories or apply additional paint near
the radar sensors. These conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles.

•

Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.
