Driving your vehicle
WARNING
• When the BCW system is
being activated, The warning
light on the outside rearview
mirror will illuminate whenev-
er a vehicle is detected at the
rear side by the system.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.
• Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
BCW (Blind-Spot Collision
Warning) system. Do not sole-
ly rely on the system but
check for yourself before
changing lanes.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check the surround-
ings whilst driving.

• The Blind-Spot Collision
Warning system (BCW) and
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) are not a
substitute for proper and safe
driving practices.
Always
drive safely and use caution
when changing lanes or back-
ing up your vehicle. The Blind-
Spot Collision Warning sys-
tem (BCW) may not detect
every object alongside the
vehicle.
CAUTION
• The system may not work prop-
erly if the bumper has been
replaced or if a repair work has
been done near the sensor.
• The detection area differs
according to the roads width.
If the road is narrow the sys-
tem may detect other vehicles
in the second next lane.
• On the contrary, if the road is
very wide the system may not
detect other vehicles in the
next lane.
• The system might be turned
off due to strong electromag-
netic waves.
