When Driving

i-ACTIVSENSE



If a vehicle with the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is driven in a country other than

the U.S.A., Canada, or Mexico, the system has to be turned off by changing the setting on

the center display.



The system switches to the Rear Cross Traffic Alert function when the shift lever (manual

transaxle) or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) is shifted to the reverse (R) position.

Refer to Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) on page 4-111.

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) Warning Indicator Lights/Display Indicator/

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) Warning Beep

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) or Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) system notifies the

driver of the presence of vehicles in adjacent lanes or at the rear of the vehicle using the

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator light, the warning sound and the display

indicator (vehicles with multi-information display and active driving display) while the

systems are operational.

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator lights

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator lights are equipped on the left and

right door mirrors. The warning indicator lights turn on when a vehicle approaching from

the rear in an adjacent lane is detected.

When the ignition is switched ON, the warning indicator light turns on momentarily and

then turns off after a few seconds.

Forward driving (Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) operation)

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) detects vehicles approaching from the rear and turns on

the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator lights equipped on the door mirrors

according to the conditions. Additionally, while a Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning

indicator light is illuminated, if the turn signal lever is operated to signal a turn in the

direction in which the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator light is illuminated,

the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator light flashes.
