BLIND-SPOT COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (BCA)
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is designed to help detect and monitor
approaching vehicles in the driver’s
blind spot area and warn the driver
of a possible collision with a warning
message and audible warning.
In addition, if there is a risk of collision
when changing lanes or driving forward
out of a parking space, Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist can help avoid
a collision by applying the brake.
OJX1079256OJX1079256
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist will
help detect and inform the driver that a
vehicle is in the blind spot.
CAUTION
The detecting range may vary
depending on the speed of your vehicle.
Even if there is a vehicle in the blind
spot, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not warn you when you pass
by at high speeds.
OJX1079026OJX1079026
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
helps detect and informs the driver that
a vehicle is approaching at high speed
from the blind spot area.
CAUTION
Warning timing may vary depending on
the speed of the vehicle approaching at
high speed.

Collision Warning
• Collision warning will operate when
the turn signal is turned on in the
direction of the detected vehicle.
• If ‘Warning Only’ is selected from the
Settings menu, the collision warning
will operate when your vehicle

you move away from the lane, the
collision warning will be canceled and
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
will return to vehicle detection state.
WARNING
• The detecting range of the rear
corner radar is determined by a
standard road width, therefore, on
a narrow road, Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist may detect other
vehicles in the next next lane and
warn you. In contrast, on a wide
road, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not be able to detect a
vehicle driving in the next lane and
may not warn you.
