BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
1. Side Indicator Light
2. BSW Indicator
The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 mph (32 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light (1)
illuminates. If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice), the side
indicator light flashes, and the BSW indica-
tor (2) illuminates (yellow) in the vehicle in-
formation display. The side indicator light
continues to flash until the detected ve-
hicle leaves the detection zone.
The side indicator light illuminates for a few
seconds when the power switch is placed
in the ON position.
The brightness of the side indicator light is
adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.
If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal,
then only the side indicator light flashes
and no chime sounds. For additional infor-
mation, see “BSW driving situations”
(P. 5-40).
The BSW system automatically turns on
every time the EV system is started, as long
as it is activated using the settings menu
on the vehicle information display.
