BLIND SPOT MONITOR
The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system
monitors a zone that covers the area adjacent
to the vehicle, that is not easily visible by the
driver and is designed to identify any object
overtaking the vehicle. Th e system uses a radar
on each side of the vehicle to identify any
overtaking vehicl e/object within the blind spot
area of the vehicle, while disregarding other
objects which may be stati onary or travelling in
the opposite direction, etc.
The radar monitors the ar ea extending from the
exterior mirror rearwards, to approximately 7
metres (23 feet) behind the rear wheels, and up
to 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) from the side of the
vehicle (the wi dth of a typical carriageway
lane).
Note: This radar sensor is approved in all RTTE
countries.
Note: The system covers an area of a fixed lane
width. If the lanes are narrower than a typical
carriageway lane, objects travelling in
non-adjacent lanes may be detected.
BSM automatically switches on and becomes
active when the vehicle is travelling at greater
than 16 km/h (10 mph) in a forward drive gear.
When the system initiates, it performs a
self-check, during which the warning icons in
the mirrors illuminate alternately for a short
period of time.
WARNINGS
The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM)
system is a supplement to, not a
replacement for, a safe driving style
and use of the exterior and rear-view mirrors.
It remains the driver's re sponsibility to detect
other vehicles, and their relative distance and
speed, when deciding whet her or not it is safe
to change lanes.
Please note that BSM may not be able
to give adequate wa rning of vehicles
approaching very quickly from behind
or vehicles that are be ing overtaken rapidly.
The radar sensors may be impaired
by rain, snow or road spray. This may
affect the sy stem's ability to reliably
detect a vehicle/object wi thin the blind spot. In
such conditions, take extra care when
changing lanes.
BSM may not be able to detect all
vehicles and may also detect objects,
such as roadside barriers, etc.
CAUTIONS
Ensure that the warning indicators in the
exterior mirrors are not obscured by
stickers or other objects.
Do not attach stickers or objects to the
rear bumpers, that may interfere with
the radar sensors.

BSM is designed to work most effectively when
driving on multi-lane highways.
If an object is identified by the system as being
an overtaking vehicle/object, an amber
warning icon ( 1) illuminates in the relevant
exterior mirror, to alert the driver that there is a
potential hazard in the vehicle's blind spot and
therefore, that a lane change might be
dangerous.
Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on
both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the
warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.
Note: BSM is automatically turned off when
reverse ( R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is
in park ( P), the vehicle is travelling below
16 km/h (10 mph) and also when the electrical
connector for the trailer socket is plugged in on
vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket.
When in these conditions, an amber warning
indicator within the exterior mirror is
displayed.Sensor blockage
The BSM system will automatically disable if
either of the sensors become completely
obscured, an amber wa rning indicator dot (2)
is displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM sensor blocked appears in the
message centre.
Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) and
will take at least two minutes of accumulated
time travelling above th is speed, to determine
that the sensor is blocked.
If the sensors become blocked, then please
check that there is nothing obscuring the rear
bumper and that it is cl ear from ice, frost and
dirt.
System fault
If a fault with one of the radar sensors is
detected, an amber warn ing indicator dot is
displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM not available is displayed in the
message centre.
Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the
radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the
whole system is disabled. If the fault is
temporary, the system will operate correctly
once the engine has been switched off and then
on again.
If a fault in the system occurs, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL
Automatic climate control provides efficient
regulation of the vehicle environment, without
constant adjustments from the occupant.
Sensors inside the vehicle monitor
temperature, humidity an d direct sunlight. The
electronic control system automatically adjusts
the heat input, blower speed, air intake and
airflow distribution, to maintain the selected
temperature(s) and re duce misting. The air
conditioning system al so incorporates a
pollen/odour filter, to further increase the
comfort of the vehicle environment.
Automatic operation provides optimum
comfort under most driving conditions. It is recommended that automatic control
(AUTO) is selected as the normal operating
mode.
Automatic control can be overridden at any
