WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of the system
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The BSM function is a supplementary function which alerts the driver that a
vehicle is present in the blind spot. Do not overly rely on the BSM function.
The function cannot judge if it is safe to change lanes, therefore over reli-
ance could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
According to conditions, the system may not function correctly. Therefore
the driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.
