The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) uses radar sensors in the rear
bumper to monitor and warn the driv-
er of an approaching vehicle in the
driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
an indicator on the outside side view
mirrors. (1) BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The blind spot detection range
varies relative to vehicle speed.
Note that if your vehicle is travel-
ing much faster than the vehicles
around you, the warning will not
occur.
(2) LCA (Lane Change Assist) The Lane Change Assist feature
will alert you when a vehicle is
approaching in an adjacent lane
at a high rate of speed. If the driv-
er activates the turn signal when
the system detects an oncoming
vehicle, the system sounds an
audible alert.
(3) RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) The Rear Cross Traffic Alert fea-
ture monitors approaching cross
traffic from the left and right side
of the vehicle when your vehicle is
moving in reverse. The feature will
operate when the vehicle is mov-
ing in reverse below about 6 mph
(10 km/h). If oncoming cross traf-
fic is detected a warning chime
will sound.
BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM (BSD) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
Always check the road condi-tion while driving for unex-
pected situations even
though the Blind Spot
Detection System (BSD) is
operating.
The Blind Spot Detection System (BSD) is a supplemen-
tal system to assist you. Do
not entirely rely on the sys-
tem. Always pay attention,
while driving, for your safety.
The Blind Spot Detection System (BSD) is not a substi-
tute for proper and safe driv-
ing. Always drive safely and
use caution when changing
lanes or backing the vehicle
up. The Blind Spot Detection
System (BSD) may not detect
every object alongside the
vehicle.

ing range, the warning will turn off
according to driving conditions. Second stage alert
The second stage alarm will activate
when:
1. The first stage alert is on.
2. The turn signal light is on to change
a lane.
When the second stage alert is acti-
vated, a warning light will blink on the
side view mirror and an alarm will
sound.
If you turn off the turn signal light, the
second stage alert will be deactivated. The second stage alarm may be
deactivated.
To activate the alarm:

Warning type
If the vehicle detected by the sensors
approaches your vehicle, the warn-
ing chime will sound, the warning
light on the side view mirror will blink
and a message will appear on the
LCD display.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• If the detected vehicle is out of the
sensing range of your vehicle,
move the vehicle away from the
detected object slowly; the warn-
ing will be cancelled.
• The system may not operate prop- erly due to other factors or cir-
cumstances. Always pay attention
to your surrounding.
• If your vehicle's left or right side bumper is blinded by barrier or
vehicles, the system sensing ability
may be reduced.WARNING
• The warning light on the side
view mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detect-
ed at the rear side by the sys-
tem.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.
Drive safely even though the vehicle is equipped with a
Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) and Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA). Do not solely
rely on the system but check
your surrounding before
changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check the surround-
ings while driving.

NOTICE
• The system may not properly
operate, when the bumper is
replaced, or when a repair work is
done near the sensor.
• The sensing range differs accord- ing to the roads width. When the
road is narrow, the system may
detect other vehicles in the next
lane.
• The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
Non-operating condition
Side view mirror may not alert the
driver when:
- The side view mirror housing is
damaged or covered with debris.
- The window is covered with debris.
- The windows are severely tinted.
DRIVER'S ATTENTION
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations, because the system
may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances.
- The vehicle drives on a curved road or through a tollgate.
- The sensor is polluted with rain, snow, mud, etc.
- The rear bumper, in which the sen- sor is located, is covered or blocked
with a foreign matter such as a
sticker, a bumper guard, a bicycle
stand, etc.
- The rear bumper is damaged, or the sensor is out of the original
default position.
- The vehicle height gets lower or higher due to heavy loading in a
trunk, abnormal tire pressure, etc.
- The vehicle drives in a bad weath- er such as heavy rain or snow. (Continued)(Continued)

Driving at night
Because night driving presents more
hazards than driving in the daylight,
here are some important tips to
remember:
Slow down and keep more distance
between you and other vehicles, as
it may be more difficult to see at
night, especially in areas where
there may not be any street lights.
Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare from other driver's headlights. Keep your headlights clean and
properly aimed on vehicles not
equipped with the automatic head-
light aiming feature. Dirty or improp-
erly aimed headlights will make it
much more difficult to see at night.
Avoid staring directly at the head- lights of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your
eyes to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous, especially if you’re not
prepared for the slick pavement.
Here are a few things to consider
when driving in the rain:
A heavy rainfall will make it harderto see and will increase the dis-
tance needed to stop your vehicle,
so slow down.
Keep your windshield wiping equipment in good shape. Replace
your windshield wiper blades when
they show signs of streaking or
missing areas on the windshield.

Driving with a trailer
Towing a trailer requires a certain
amount of experience. Before setting
out for the open road, you must get to
know your trailer. Acquaint yourself
with the feel of handling and braking
with the added weight of the trailer.
And always keep in mind that the
vehicle you are driving is now a good
deal longer and not nearly so respon-
sive as your vehicle is by itself.
Before you start, check the trailer
hitch and platform, safety chains,
electrical connector(s), lights, tires
and mirror adjustment. If the trailer
has electric brakes, start your vehicle
and trailer moving and then apply the
trailer brake controller by hand to be
sure the brakes are working. This lets
you check your electrical connection
at the same time.
During your trip, check occasionally
to be sure that the load is secure,
and that the lights and any trailer
brakes are still working.
Following distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the
vehicle ahead as you would when
driving your vehicle without a trailer.
This can help you avoid situations
that require heavy braking and sud-
den turns.
Passing
You’ll need more passing distance
up ahead when you’re towing a trail-
er. And, because of the increased
vehicle length, you’ll need to go
much farther beyond the passed
vehicle before you can return to your
lane. Due to the added load to the
engine when going uphill the vehicle
may also take longer to pass than it
would on flat ground.
Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel
with one hand. Then, to move the trail-
er to the left, just move your hand to
the left. To move the trailer to the right,
move your hand to the right. Always
back up slowly and, if possible, have
someone guide you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer,
make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft
shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees,
or other objects near the edge of the
road. Avoid jerky or sudden maneu-
vers. Signal well in advance before
turning or lane changes.
