5.4.10 Blind spot detection (BSD)
system*
The BSD system detects the vehicles in the
blind spot and the area behind the blind spot
via the sensor installed at the rear of the
vehicle. If it detects that another vehicle is
approaching quickly, the BSD will alert the
driver through the visual signal on the exterior
rearview mirrors.
-
A: Blind spot in the adjacent lane.
-
B: Area behind the blind spot.
CAUTION
● In inclement weather such as heavy fog
(when the user manually turns on the
fog lamps) or heavy rain (the wipers are
quickly moving), the high beams will not
be turned on automatically to ensure
driving safety.
● The high beams will not automatically
turn on when the parts involved in the
function implementation fail or there is a
system failure.
On and Off
With the ENGINE START/STOP button in “ON”
position or after the engine is started, go to
“Settings → Driving Assistance → Blind Spot
Driving Assistance” in the AV system, and
press the
soft key on the right side of “BSD”
to activate or deactivate this function.
If the BSD system is switched on properly, the
indicator lamps on exterior rearview mirrors
will come on temporarily, and the indicator
lamp on the instrument cluster will turn
green. If a fault is detected in the BSD system,
the indicator lamp will turn red, and a fault
indication will be shown on the instrument
cluster display. If the BSD is switched off, the
indicator lamp will go out.
