WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use of the

BSW system could result in serious

injury or death.

.

The BSW system is not a replace-

ment for proper driving proce-

dure and is not designed to

prevent contact with vehicles or

objects. When changing lanes, al-

ways use the side and rear mir-

rors and turn and look in the

direction your vehicle will move

to ensure 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.

WAF0721X

The BSW system uses radar sensors

installed near the rear bumper to detect

other vehicles in an adjacent lane.

SSD1030

Detection zone

The radar sensors can detect vehicles on

either side of your vehicle within the

detection zone shown as illustrated. This

detection zone starts from the outside

mirror of your vehicle and extends ap-

proximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear

bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)

sideways.
When the turn signal is activated, the

detection zone may extend more than

approximately 10 ft (3.0 m).

BSW SYSTEM OPERATION

The BSW system operates above approxi-

mately 20 MPH (32 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the

detection zone, the side indicator light

illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, the

system chimes (twice) and the side in-

dicator light flashes. The side indicator

light continues to flash until the detected

vehicle leaves the detection zone.
The side indicator light illuminates for a

few seconds when the ignition switch is

placed in the ON position.

on the switch is off.

The warning systems switch

will turn

on and off the LDW and BSW systems at

the same time.

NOTE:
The system will retain current settings

in the vehicle information display even

if the engine is restarted.

BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

WARNING

Listed below are the system limita-

tions for the BSW system. Failure to

operate the vehicle in accordance

with these system limitations could

result in serious injury or death.

.

The BSW system cannot detect all

vehicles under all conditions.

.

The radar sensors may not be

able to detect and activate BSW

when certain objects are present

such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles,

low height vehicles, or high

ground clearance vehicles.

— Oncoming vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the de-

tection zone when you accel-

erate from a stop.

— A vehicle merging into an

adjacent lane at a speed ap-

proximately the same as your

vehicle.

— A vehicle approaching rapidly

from behind.

— A vehicle which your vehicle

overtakes rapidly.

— A vehicle that passes through

the detection zone quickly.

— When overtaking several vehi-

cles in a row, the vehicles after

the first vehicle may not be

detected if they are traveling

close together.

.

The radar sensor’s detection zone

is designed based on a standard

lane width. When driving in a

wider lane, the radar sensors

may not detect vehicles in an

adjacent lane. When driving in a

narrow lane, the radar sensors

may detect vehicles driving two

lanes away.

.

The radar sensors are designed

to ignore most stationary objects,

however objects such as guard-

rails, walls, foliage and parked

vehicles may occasionally be de-

tected. This is a normal operation

condition.

.

The following conditions may re-

duce the ability of the radar to

detect other vehicles:
— Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the

vehicle

.

Do not attach stickers (including

transparent material), install ac-

cessories or apply additional

paint near the radar sensors.

These conditions may reduce the

ability of the radar to detect other

vehicles.

.

When towing a trailer or other

vehicle, turn the BSW system off

to prevent the occurrence of an

unexpected accident resulting

from sudden system operation.

.

Excessive noise (for example,

audio system volume, open vehi-

cle window) will interfere with the

chime sound, and it may not be

heard.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use of the I-

BSI system could result in serious

injury or death.

.

The I-BSI system is not a replace-

ment for proper driving proce-

dures and is not designed to

prevent contact with vehicles or

objects. When changing lanes, al-

ways use the side and rear mir-

rors and turn and look in the

direction your vehicle will move

to ensure it is safe to change

lanes. Never rely solely on the I-

BSI system.

.

There is a limitation to the detec-

tion capability of the radar. Not

every moving object or vehicle

will be detected. Using the I-BSI

system under some road, ground,

lane marker, traffic or weather

conditions could lead to improper

system operation. Always rely on

your own operation to avoid ac-

cidents.

The I-BSI system helps alert the driver of

other vehicles in adjacent lanes when

changing lanes, and helps assist the

driver to return the vehicle to the center

of the traveling lane.

WAF0769X

The I-BSI system uses radar sensors

installed near the rear bumper to detect

other vehicles in an adjacent lane. In

addition to the radar sensors, the I-BSI

system uses a camera

installed behind

the windshield to monitor the lane mar-

kers of your traveling lane.

INTELLIGENT BLIND SPOT

INTERVENTION (I-BSI)

SSD1030

Detection zone

The radar sensors can detect vehicles on

either side of your vehicle within the

detection zone shown as illustrated.
This detection zone starts from the out-

side mirror of your vehicle and extends

approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the

rear bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0

m) sideways.

I-BSI SYSTEM OPERATION

The I-BSI system operates above approxi-

mately 37 MPH (60 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the

detection zone, the side indicator light

illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, the

Starting and driving

system chimes (twice) and the side in-

dicator light flashes. The side indicator

light continues to flash until the detected

vehicle leaves the detection zone.
If the I-BSI system is ON and your vehicle

approaches a lane marker while another

vehicle is in the detection zone, the

system chimes (three times) and the side

indicator light flashes. Then the I-BSI

system slightly applies the brakes to help

return the vehicle back to the center of

the driving lane. The I-BSI system oper-

ates regardless of turn signal usage.

NOTE:

.

I-BSI warning and system applica-

tion will only be activated if the side

indicator light is already illuminated

when your vehicle approaches a

lane marker. If another vehicle

comes into the detection zone after

your vehicle has crossed a lane

marker, no I-BSI warning or system

application will be activated. (See “I-

BSI driving situations” (P.5-51).)

.

The I-BSI system is typically acti-

vated earlier than the Intelligent

Lane Intervention (I-LI) system when

your vehicle is approaching a lane

marker.
