SAFETY

The BSM detection zone covers approximately
one lane width, 12 ft (3.8 m), on both sides of the
vehicle. The zone length starts at the outside
mirror and extends approximately 10 ft (3 m)
beyond the rear fascia/bumper of the vehicle. The
BSM system monitors the detection zones on both
sides of the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or higher
and will alert the driver of vehicles in these areas.
NOTE:
The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver
about rapidly approaching vehicles that are
outside the detection zones.
The BSM system will automatically disable when
a trailer is detected. If the attached trailer is not
detected, the system detection zone DOES NOT
change. Therefore, visually verify the adjacent
lane is clear for both your vehicle and trailer
before making a lane change. If the trailer or
other object (i.e., bicycle, sports equipment)
extends beyond the side of your vehicle, this
may result in the BSM warning light remaining
illuminated the entire time the vehicle is in a
forward gear. It may be necessary to deactivate
the BSM system manually to avoid misdetection
The BSM system can become blocked if snow, ice,
mud, or other road contaminations accumulate on
the rear fascia/bumper where the radar sensors
are located. The system may also detect blockage
if the vehicle is operated in areas with extremely
low radar returns such as a desert or parallel to a
large elevation drop. If blockage is detected, a
“Blind Spot Temporarily Unavailable, Sensor
Blocked” message will display in the cluster, both
mirror lights will illuminate, and BSM and RCP
alerts will not occur. This is normal operation. The
system will automatically recover and resume
function when the condition clears or when an
ignition cycle occurs. To minimize system
blockage, do not block the area of the rear fascia/
bumper where the radar sensors are located with
foreign objects (bumper stickers, bicycle racks,
etc.) and keep it clear of road contaminations.
Radar Sensor Location (Driver Side Shown)
The BSM system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate side view mirror based on a detected
object when enabled. If the turn signal is then
activated, and it corresponds to an alert present on
that side of the vehicle, an audible chime will also
be sounded when chimes are enabled. In addition
to the audible alert the radio (if on) will also be
Warning Light Location
As part of the Active Lane Management system, if
the vehicle begins to drift into an adjacent lane
that has an active LED indication, the LED will flash
if steering torque is provided to guide the vehicle
back to the center of the lane
The BSM system monitors the detection zone from
three different entry points (side, rear, front) while
driving to see if an alert is necessary. The BSM
system will issue an alert during these types of
zone entries.
