Warning!
Adjusting a seat while driving may be
dangerous. Moving a seat while driving
could result in loss of control which could
cause a collision and serious injury or
death.
Seats should be adjusted before
fastening the seat belts and while the
vehicle is parked. Serious injury or death
could result from a poorly adjusted seat
belt.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined
so that the shoulder belt is no longer
resting against your chest. In a collision you
could slide under the seat belt, which could
result in serious injury or death.
Heated Seats
On some models, the front driver and
passenger seats may be equipped with
heaters in both the seat cushions and
seatbacks. The controls for the front
heated seats are located on the center
instrument panel.
The heated seats have three settings;
High, Medium, and Low. Push the
switch once to turn the heated seats on
High, twice for Medium, and three times
for Low.
Note:
If the ignition is switched off while
the seat warmer is operating (High,
Mid or Low) and then switched ON
again, the seat warmer will
automatically operate at the
temperature set before switching off
the ignition.
Use the seat warmer when the
engine is running. Leaving the seat
warmer on for long periods with the
engine not running could discharge the
battery.
The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low.

beep may not occur or they may be
delayed:
A vehicle makes a lane change from
a driving lane two lanes over to an
adjacent lane.
Driving on steep slopes.
Crossing the summit of a hill or
mountain pass.
The turning radius is small (making a
sharp turn, turning at intersections).
Whenthereisadifferenceinthe
height between your driving lane and
the adjacent lane.
Directly after pushing the BSM
switch and the system becomes
operable.
If the road width is extremely narrow,
vehicles two lanes over may be
detected. The detection area of the
radar sensors (rear) is set according to
the road width of expressways.
The BSM warning lights may turn on in
reaction to stationary objects on the
road or the roadside such as guardrails,
tunnels, sidewalls, and parked vehicles.
A BSM warning lights may flash or the
warning beep may be activated several
times when making a turn at a city
intersection.
Turn off the BSM system while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the radar’s sound system waves will be blocked
causing the system to not operate
normally.
In the following cases, it may be difficult
to view the illumination/flashing of the
BSM warning lights equipped on the
door mirrors:
Snow or ice is adhering to the door
mirrors.
The door glass is fogged or covered
in snow, frost or dirt.
The system switches to the Rear Cross
Traffic Alert function when the gear
selector is shifted to the Reverse (R)
position.
BSM Warning Lights
The BSM warning lights are equipped
on the left and right door mirrors. The warning lights turn on when a
vehicle approaching from the rear in an
adjacent lane is detected.
When the ignition is switched ON, the
malfunction warning light turns on
momentarily and then turns off after a
few seconds.
Forward Driving (BSM System
Operation)
The BSM system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear and turns on
the warning lights equipped on the door
mirrors according to the conditions.
Additionally, while a warning light is
illuminated, if the turn signal lever is
operated to signal a turn in the direction
in which the warning light is illuminated,
the warning light flashes.
Reverse Driving (RCTA System
Operation)
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
system detects vehicles approaching
from the left and right of your vehicle
and flashes the BSM warning lights.

RADAR SENSORS —
IF EQUIPPED
Rear Radar Sensors
The following systems use the rear
radar sensors:
Blind Spot Monitoring System (BSM)
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
The radar sensors function by detecting
the radio waves reflected off of a vehicle
approaching from the rear or an
obstruction sent from the radar sensor.
The radar sensors are installed inside
the rear bumper, one each on the left
and right sides.
Always keep the surface of the rear
bumper near the radar sensors clean so
that the radar sensors operate normally.
Also, do not apply items such as
stickers.
Caution!
If the rear bumper receives a severe
impact, the system may no longer operate
normally. Stop the system immediately and
contact an Authorized Dealer.
The detection ability of the radar
sensors has limitations. In the following
cases, the detection ability may lower
and the system may not operate
normally:
The rear bumper near the radar
sensors has become deformed.
Snow, ice or mud adheres to the
radar sensors on the rear bumper.
Under bad weather conditions such
as rain, snow and fog.
Note: Under the following conditions,
the radar sensors cannot detect target
objects or it may be difficult to detect
them:
Stationary objects on a road or a
road side such as small, two-wheeled
vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians,
animals, and shopping carts.
Vehicle shapes which do not reflect
radar waves well such as empty trailers
with a low vehicle height and sports
cars. Vehicles are shipped with the direction
of the radar sensors adjusted for each
vehicle to a loaded vehicle condition so
that the radar sensors detect
approaching vehicles correctly. If the
direction of the radar sensors has
changed, contact an Authorized Dealer.
The radar sensors are regulated by the
relevant radio wave laws of the country
in which the vehicle is driven. If the
vehicle is driven abroad, authorization
from the country in which the vehicle is
driven may be required.
Note:
For repairs or replacement of the
radar sensors, or bumper repairs,
paintwork, and replacement near the
radar sensors, consult an Authorized
Dealer.
Turn off the system while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the radio waves
emitted by the radar will be blocked
causing the system to not operate
normally.
