Blind Spot Monitoring

NOTE: Do not rely completely on the BSM system and be sure to look over

your shoulder before changing lanes:

• The BSM system can assist the driver in conrming the safety of the

surroundings, but is not a complete substitute.

• The driver is responsible for ensuring safe lane changes and other maneuvers.

• Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling and the

vehicle’s surroundings.

• The BSM system does not operate when the vehicle speed is lower than about

20 mph (32 km/h).

Turning BSM System Off

Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light and sound

indicators. To manually turn the BSM system off, push the BSM

OFF switch on the dash. The BSM OFF indicator will illuminate

in the instrument cluster when the BSM system is off. The BSM

system will automatically turn on the next time the vehicle is started.

BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM) SYSTEM

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver

by monitoring the blind spots to the rear of the vehicle on both sides.

• If your vehicle speed is 20 mph (32 km/h) or more, the BSM will

warn you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the

BSM warning lights located on the left and right door mirrors.

• If you operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated BSM warning

light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning light ash.

• BSM sensors are located under the left and right rear bumper

areas. The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear

bumper gets too dirty, so keep the rear bumper area clean.

Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
