NOTE: Do	not	rely	completely	on	the	BSM	system	and	be	sure	to	look	over 	
your	shoulder	before	changing	lanes:  
•	 The BSM system can assist the driver in confirming the safety of the surroundings,  
  but is not a complete substitute. 
•	 The	driver	is	responsible	for	ensuring	safe	lane	changes	and	other	maneuvers. 	
•	 Always	pay	attention	to	the	direction	in	which	the	vehicle	is	traveling	and	the 	 
  vehicle’s surroundings. 
•	 The	BSM	system	does	not	operate	when	the	vehicle	speed	is	lower	than	about 	 
	 20	mph	(32	km/h).

vehicle is started.

B LIND  SPOT  MONITORING  (BSM) SYSTEM
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver 
by monitoring the blind spots to the rear of the vehicle on both sides.
	 •		 If	your	vehicle	speed	is	20	mph	(32	km/h)	or	more,	the	BSM	will	warn 	
you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the BSM warning 
lights located on the left and right door mirrors.
	 •	 	 If	you	operate	a	turn	signal	in	the	direction	of	an	illuminated	BSM 	
warning light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning 
light flash.
	 •	 	 BSM	sensors	are	located	under	the	left	and	right	rear	bumper	areas. 	
The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper gets too 
dirty, so keep the rear bumper area clean.
