WARNING
The warning light on the outside
rearview mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detected at
the rear side by the system.
To avoid accidents, do not focus
only on the warning light and ne‐
glect to see the surrounding of the
vehicle.
Drive safely even though the vehi‐
cle is equipped with a Blind Spot
Detection System (BSD) and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA). Do not
solely rely on the system but
check for yourself before changing
lanes or backing the vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so al‐
ways check the surroundings while
driving.
The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) are not a substitute for
proper and safe driving. Always
drive safely and use caution when
changing lanes or backing the vehi‐
cles up. The Blind Spot Detection
System (BSD) may not detect ev‐
ery object alongside the vehicle.
CAUTION
The system may not work proper‐
ly if the bumper has been replaced
or if repair work has been done
near the sensor.
The detection area differs accord‐
ing to the roads width. If the road
is narrow the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
In addition, if the road is very wide
the system may not detect other
vehicles.
The system may turn off due to
strong electromagnetic waves.
