BSM Warning Beep
The BSM audible alert is activated
simultaneously with the flashing of a
BSM warning light.
BSM Switch
When the BSM switch is pushed, the
BSM and RCTA systems are turned off
and the BSM off indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on.
If the switch is pushed again, the BSM
and RCTA systems become operable
and the BSM off indicator light turns off.
Note:
When the ignition is switched OFF,
the condition before the system was
turned off is maintained. For example,
if the ignition is switched OFF while the
BSM and RCTA systems are
operational, the BSM and RCTA
systems remain operational the next
time the ignition is switched ON.
The BSM and RCTA systems are
turned off when the battery is
disconnected such as when the
battery terminals or fuses have been
removed and reinstalled. To turn the
BSM and RCTA systems back on,
push the BSM switch.
RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
Function
The RCTA system is designed to assist
the driver in checking the area to the
rear of the vehicle on both sides while
the vehicle is in REVERSE by alerting
the driver to the presence of vehicles
approaching the rear of the vehicle.
The RCTA system detects vehicles
approaching from the left and right
sides of the vehicle while the vehicle is
reversing out of a parking space, and
notifies the driver of possible danger
using the BSM warning lights and an
audible alert.
RCTA Operation
The RCTA system operates when the
gear selector is shifted to the REVERSE
position.
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle, the BSM
warning light flashes and the audible
alert is activated simultaneously.
With Rear View Camera
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
warning indication in the rearview
monitor also synchronizes with the
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator light on the door mirrors.
