5-34Starting and driving
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h). If the system
detects a vehicle in the detection zone and
your vehicle is approaching the lane
marker, the BSI system provides an audi-
ble warning (three times), flashes the
BSW/BSI indicator light and slightly ap-
plies the brakes for a short period of time
on one side to help return the vehicle back
to the traveling lane. The BSI system
provides an audible warning and turns on
or flashes the BSW/BSI indicator light even
if the BSW system is off.
WARNING
.The BSW and BSI systems are not a
replacement for proper driving procedure
and are not designed to prevent contact
with vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direc-
tion you will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW or BSI system.
. Using the BSI system under some road,
lane marker or weather conditions could
lead to improper system operation. Al-
ways rely on your own steering and braking operation to avoid accidents.
. The BSW and BSI systems may not
provide a warning or brake control for
vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.

BSW/BSI indicator light
BSW SYSTEM OPERATIONY51D-V-E01-32E603AE-BDF4-490E-B5AC-9FF1A64159F4If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If the turn signal is then activated,
the BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and a
chime sounds twice. The indicator light
continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
The BSW/BSI indicator lights illuminate for
a few seconds when the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW/BSI indicator
lights is adjusted automatically depending

on the brightness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver
activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes
into the detection zone after the driver
activates the turn signal, then only the
BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. (See“BSW/BSI driving
situations” (P.5-40).)

Warning systems switch
The warning systems switch is used to turn
on and off the BSW system when it is
activated using the settings menu on the
center display. See “How to enable/disable
the BSW system using the settings menu”
(P.5-36).
When the warning systems switch is turned
off, the indicator
*1on the switch is off.
The indicator will also be off if the BSW, the
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and the
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) systems
are deactivated.
For the LDW and FCW systems, see “Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system/Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system”
(P.5-
23) and “Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
system” (P.5-83).

BSI SYSTEM OPERATIONY51D-V-E01-96B4C4EA-DE72-44A7-840F-25C8167EECC1If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the
detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If your vehicle is approaching a lane
marker, the BSW/BSI indicator light
flashes and an audible warning will sound
three times. Then the system applies the
brakes on one side of the vehicle for a
short period of time to help return the
vehicle back to the center of the lane. BSI
operates regardless of turn signal usage.NOTE:
.
Warning and system application of the
brakes will only be activated if the
BSW/BSI indicator light is already
illuminated when your vehicle ap-
proaches a lane marker. If another
vehicle comes into the detection zone
after your vehicle has crossed a lane
marker, no warning or brake applica-
tion will be activated. (See “BSW/BSI
driving situations” (P.5-40).)
. The BSI system is typically activated
earlier than the Lane Departure Pre-
vention (LDP) system when your vehi-
cle is approaching a lane marker.
The BSI system turns on when the dynamic
driver assistance switch on the steering
wheel is pushed when the “Blind Spot
Intervention” is enabled in the settings
menu on the center display. The BSI ON
indicator light (green) on the instrument
panel illuminates when the BSI system is
turned on.
The BSI system provides an audible warn-
ing and flashes the indicator light when
BSI is activated even if the BSW system is
off.

HICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Y51D-V-E01-C783084C-2815-4955-98EF-A68E28DCDCF8The system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and
direction.
If the distance sensor
*Adetects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will
reduce the vehicle speed so that your
vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the
selected distance.
The system automatically controls the
throttle and applies the brakes (up to
25% of vehicle braking power) if neces- sary.
The detection range of the sensor is
approximately 390 ft (120 m) ahead.
WARNING
.
This system is only an aid to assist the
driver and is not a collision warning or
avoidance device. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
. The system is primarily intended for use
on straight, dry, open roads with light
traffic. It is not advisable to use the
system in city traffic or congested areas.
. This system will not adapt automatically
to road conditions. This system should
be used in evenly flowing traffic. Do not
use the system on roads with sharp
curves, or on icy roads, in heavy rain or
in fog.
The distance sensor will not detect under
most conditions:
.Stationary and slow moving vehicles
. Pedestrians or objects in the roadway .
Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
. Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel
lane
WARNING
. As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the Intelligent Cruise Control
system. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-minded
driving, or overcome poor visibility in
rain, fog, or other bad weather. Decele-
rate the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal, depending on the distance
to the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the
vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the limitations of the system. The
system will cancel once it judges that
the vehicle has come to a standstill and
sound a warning chime. To prevent the
vehicle from moving, the driver must
depress the brake pedal.
. The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather

WARNING
Normally when controlling the distance to a
vehicle ahead, this system automatically
accelerates or decelerates your vehicle
according to the speed of the vehicle ahead.
Depress the accelerator to properly accel-
erate your vehicle when acceleration is
required for a lane change. Depress the brake pedal when deceleration is required to
maintain a safe distance to the vehicle
ahead due to its sudden braking or if a
vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert when
using the ICC system.
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC
system maintains the set vehicle speed,
similar to standard cruise control, as long
as no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.Vehicle detected ahead:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0When a vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead, the ICC system decelerates the
vehicle by controlling the throttle and
applying the brakes to match the speed
of a slower vehicle ahead. The system then
controls the vehicle speed based on the
speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the
driver selected distance.
The stoplights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system.
When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator comes
on. The ICC system will also display the set
speed and selected distance.
Vehicle ahead not detected:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0When a vehicle is no longer detected
ahead, the ICC system gradually acceler-
ates your vehicle to resume the previously
set vehicle speed. The ICC system then
maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off.
