8ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) is a driving aid system that alerts the
driver when another vehicle which may not be visible through the outside
rearview mirror is traveling in the next lane behind your vehicle. When
a vehicle in the next lane is traveling at same speed or faster in the
detection areas, the Blind Spot Warning light in the corresponding outside
rearview mirror will illuminate. If the turn signal lever is operated to the
side where the Blind Spot Warning light is illuminated, the Blind Spot
Warning light will blink and a buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
Depending on the speed of your vehicle, the Blind Spot Warning will detect
up to approximately 230 feet from your vehicle.
BLIND SPOT WARNING WITH LANE CHANGE ASSIST (BSW) (IF EQUIPPED)
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) is an aid system for backing up. When
the RCTA detects vehicles approaching from sides while your vehicle is
reversing, the Blind Spot Warning lights in the outside rearview mirrors on
both sides will blink and a buzzer will sound to alert the driver. A warning
message will also appear on the information screen of the
Multi-information Display.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert will be activated from 0 MPH when the vehicle is
shifted into Reverse and will detect on-coming vehicles that are passing
behind you. (Note: Minimum speed required for passing vehicles. See
Owner’s Manual for details). Rear radar transceivers will detect on-coming
rear traffic and will light up in the mirror and in the Multi-information
Display as well as sound a warning alert.
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA) (IF EQUIPPED)
The Blind Spot Warning, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems are driver aids only
and are not substitutes for safe and careful driving. Under certain circumstances, these systems may
not detect other vehicles correctly.

once the detection area is clear.
