AUXILIARY DRIVING SYSTEMS
Blind Spot Monitoring
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses
two radar -based sensors, located inside the rear
bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable
vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motorcycles etc.)
that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/
front/side of the vehicle.
The BSM detection zone covers approximately
one lane on both sides of the vehicle 12 ft
(3.8 m). The zone length starts at the side of the
vehicle, near the B-Pillar, and extends approxi-
mately 10 ft (3 m) beyond the rear bumper of
the vehicle. The BSM system monitors the de-
tection zones on both sides of the vehicle when
the vehicle speed has reached approximately
6 mph (10 km/h) or higher and will alert the
driver of vehicles in these areas.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning
light will momentarily illuminate in both outside
rear view mirrors to let the driver know that the
system is operational. The BSM system sensors
operate when the vehicle is in any forward gear
or REVERSE and enters stand by mode when
the vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM warning light, located in the outside
mirrors, will illuminate if a vehicle moves into a
blind spot zone.
The BSM system can also be configured to
sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the
radio to notify you of objects that have entered
the detection zones.
Rear Cross Path (RCP)
The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is intended
to aid the driver when backing out of parking
spaces where the vision of oncoming vehicles
may be blocked. Proceed slowly and cautiously
out of the parking space until the rear end of the
vehicle is exposed. The RCP system will then
have a clear view of the cross traffic and if an
oncoming vehicle is detected, will alert the
Rear Detection Zones
