BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) WITH REAR CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT (RCTA)* (if so equipped)
The BSW system helps to alert the driver when another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s blind
spot area.
An indicator light located near the outside
mirrors
1 will illuminate if the radar sensors
detect a vehicle in the detection zone.
The indicator light 2 will illuminate after the
ignition switch is on and the BSW system is enabled. This
indicates that the BSW system is operational.
The indicator light 2 will be extinguished if all of the warning
systems are deactivated using the Settings menu.
The RCTA system helps to alert the driver of an approaching vehicle when the driver is backing out of a parking space. The system operates when the shift
lever is in the R (REVERSE) position and the vehicle speed is less than approximately
5 mph (8 km/h).
The radar sensors detect an approaching vehicle from up to 66 ft (20 m). The sensors are located on both sides near the rear bumper. The system gives visual and audible
warnings if an approaching vehicle is detected.
The RCTA system can be turned on or off through the Driver Assistance menu in the vehicle information display.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and the “Starting and driving
(section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

The FEB operates at speeds greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
If there is a risk of a forward collision, an audible tone will sound an\
d
the vehicle ahead detection indicator light 1 will illuminate. If the
driver applies the brakes after the warning and the FEB system detects
that there is still the possibility of a forward collision, the system w\
ill

action, the FEB system will issue a second visual warning
