5. Driving guide
NOTE
The system has a memory function for
the switch state and mode selection, so
when the vehicle is restarted, the system
will work in the state and mode before last
shutdown.
How it alerts the driver
The BSD alerts the driver via the yellow
indicator lamp on the exterior rearview
mirror, whose illuminance can be adjusted
automatically according to the ambient light.
CAUTION
When the vehicle has been started or the
system has been switched on, the yellow
indicator lamp will come on for two
seconds, indicating that the function is
switched on normally.
Working conditions
Under the following three conditions during
driving (vehicle speed >15km/h):
-
Another vehicle enters the blind spot from
the rear or from one side.
-
Another vehicle approaches quickly from
the rear of the adjacent lane.
-
Other vehicles enter the blind spot from
the front and stay there longer than a
certain period of time.
In any of the three situations above, the BSD
issues an alarm and the indicator lamp on the
corresponding exterior rearview mirror comes
on, and if the turn signal lamp on the same
side is turned on in this case, the indicator
lamp will flash to alert you the risk of changing
lane.
CAUTION
When the vehicle overtakes another vehicle
ahead at a very high speed, the alarm will
not be activated for the vehicle in the blind
spot as the time that the vehicle stays in
the blind spot is too short.
