System Description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW)
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning
system uses radar sensors in the
rear bumper to monitor and warn the
driver when it detects an approach-
ing vehicle in the driver's blind spot
area.
1) Blind-Spot Area
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to vehicle speed.
Note that if your vehicle is traveling
much faster than the vehicles around
you, the warning will not occur.2) Closing at high speed
The Lane Change Assist feature will
alert you when it detects a vehicle is
approaching in an adjacent lane at a
high rate of speed. If the driver acti-
vates the turn signal when the sys-
tem detects an oncoming vehicle, the
system sounds an audible alert.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA)
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist system helps detect the front
lane through the camera installed on
the upper front windshield and helps
detect the side/rear areas through
radar sensors.

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist system may apply braking
power, when an approaching vehicle
is detected within a certain distance
next to or behind your vehicle.
In this situation, the system gently
apply braking power on the tire,
which is located in the opposite side
of the possible-colliding point. The
instrument cluster will inform the
driver of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system is automatically deactivated
when:
- The vehicle drives a certain dis-
tance away
- The vehicle direction is changed
against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly
moved- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accor-
dance with driving situations. Thus,
always pay close attention to road
conditions.
