WARNING
.Do not use the BSI system under the
following conditions because the system
may not function properly.
—During bad weather (e.g. rain, fog,
snow, wind, etc.)
—When driving on slippery roads,such as on ice or snow, etc.
—When driving on winding or uneven roads.
—When there is a lane closure due toroad repairs.
—When driving in a makeshift lane.
—When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
—When driving with a tire that is notwithin normal tire conditions (e.g.
tire wear, low tire pressure, installa-
tion of spare tire, tire chains, non-
standard wheels).
—When the vehicle is equipped withnon-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
. Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound, and
it may not be heard.
.The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSI/BSW when certain objects are present such as:
—
Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
— Several types of vehicles such as
motorcycles
— Oncoming vehicles
— Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop
(See “BSW/BSI driving situations”
later in this section)
— A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle
(See “BSW/BSI driving situations”
later in this section)
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind.
(See “BSW/BSI driving situations”
later in this section)
— A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly.
(See “BSW/BSI driving situations”
later in this section)
. Severe weather or road spray condi-
tions may reduce the ability of the
radar to detect other vehicles.
. The radar sensors detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane, the

the tone will sound continuously.
Keep the corner/center sonar (located on
the bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and
large accumulations of dirt (do not clean
the sonar with sharp objects). If the sonar
is covered, it will affect the accuracy of the
sonar system.
The sensitivity level of the corner/center
sonar can be adjusted (higher or lower) in
the SONAR setting display. (See“How to
use SETTING button” in the“Monitor,
climate, audio, phone and voice recogni-
tion systems” for the“Sonar” settings.)

SONAR INDICATOR
With the “Sonar Display” key ON in the
“Sonar” settings, when the corner/center
sonar detects obstacles near the bumper, a
tone will sound and the sonar indicator will
appear in the center display. When the rear
view monitor is displayed, the sonar
indicator will appear in the upper corner
of the display
*1.
The sonar indicators
*Aand*Bindicate
the position of the object and the distance to the object with its color and rate of
blinking.
When an object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks (the tone
sounds intermittently). When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of
blinking increases (the rate of the tone
increases). When the bumper is very close
to the object, less than 11.8 in (30 cm)
away, the indicator stops blinking and
turns red (the tone sounds continuously).
When the rear view monitor is displayed,
the colors of the sonar indicator and the
distance guide lines in the rear view
indicate different distances to the object.
The sonar indicator can be turned off in the
SONAR setting display. (See
“How to use
SETTING button” in the“Monitor, climate,
audio, phone and voice recognition sys-
tems” for the “Sonar” settings.) When the
sonar indicator is off, only a tone sounds
when the sonar detects obstacles.
