SAFETY
72
When the engine is started the warning light
turns on to signal the driver that the system
is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any forward
gear is engaged at a speed higher than
6 mph (10 km/h) or when REVERSE is
engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated
when the vehicle is in PARK.
The detection area of the system covers
approximately one lane on both sides of the
vehicle.
This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for 19 ft (6 m) towards the rear part
of the vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the system
monitors the detection areas on both sides of
the vehicle and warns the driver about the
possible presence of vehicles in these areas.
While driving, the system monitors the
detection area from three different points
(side, rear and front) to check whether an
alert needs to be sent to the driver. The
system can detect the presence of a vehicle
in one of these three areas.
NOTE:

The system does not alert the driver for the
presence of fixed object (e.g. safety
barriers, poles, walls, etc.). However, in
some circumstances, the system may acti -
vate in the presence of these objects. This
is normal and does not indicate a system
malfunction.

The system does not alert the driver about
the presence of vehicles coming from the
opposite direction, in the adjacent lanes.
Rear View
The system detects vehicles coming from the
rear part of your vehicle on both sides and
entering the rear detection area with a differ
-
ence in speed of less than 31 mph (50 km/h)
with relation to your vehicle.
Overtaking Vehicles
If another vehicle is overtaken slowly, with a
difference in speed of less than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the vehicle stays in the blind
spot for approximately 1.5 seconds, the
warning light on the door mirror of the corre -
sponding side illuminates.
If the difference in speed between the two
vehicles is greater than 15 mph (25 km/h),
the warning light will not illuminate.
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) System
This system helps the driver during reverse
maneuvers in the case of reduced visibility.
The RCP system monitors the rear detection
areas on both sides of the vehicle to detect
objects moving towards the sides of the
vehicle, with a minimum speed between
1 mph (1 km/h) and 2 mph (3 km/h) and
objects moving at a maximum speed of
21 mph (35 km/h), in areas such as parking
lots.
The system activation is signaled to the
driver by an audible warning.
NOTE:

If the sensors are covered by objects or
vehicles, the system will not warn the
driver.

For the system to operate correctly, the
rear bumper area where the radar sensors
are located must stay free from snow, ice
and dirt gathered from the road surface.

Do not cover the rear bumper area where
the radar sensors are located with any
object (e.g. adhesives, bike rack, etc.).
WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only
an aid to help detect objects in the blind
spot zones. The BSM system is not
designed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists,
or animals. Even if your vehicle is
equipped with the BSM system, always
check your vehicle’s mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use your turn signal
before changing lanes. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
