Operation Manual

WARNING
The BSW system is not a replacement for
proper driving procedure and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with vehicles or
objects. When changing lanes, always use
the side and rear mirrors and turn and look in
the direction you will move to ensure it is
safe to change lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW system.
The BSW system may not provide a warning
for vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.
BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW indicator light next to
the outside mirror will illuminate in the direc-
tion of the detected vehicle. If the turn signal is
then activated, the BSW indicator light flashes
and a chime sounds twice. The indicator light
continues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is pushed to
the ON position.
