When driving downhill or uphill.
When only part of the vehicle in
front is visible on a crossroad or
curved road.
When there is a traffic light, reflect- ing sign, flashing sign or mirror.
When the road conditions are bad such as being wet or covered with
snow.
When the front vehicle’s head- lamps are off but the fog lamps on.
When a vehicle suddenly appears from a curve.
When the vehicle is tilted from a flat tire or being towed.
When the LKA (Lane Keeping Assist) warning light illuminates.✽ ✽ NOTICE
• Do not place any accessories,
stickers or tint the windshield.
• Have on the windshield glass replaced from an authorized deal-
er.
• Do not remove or damage related parts of the High Beam Assist sys-
tem.
• Be careful that water doesn’t get into the High Beam Assist unit.
• Do not place objects on the dash- board that reflect light such as
mirrors, white paper, etc. The sys-
tem may not function properly if
sunlight is reflected.
• At times, the Smart High Beam system may not operate due to sys-
tem limitations. Always check the
road conditions for your safety.
When the system does not operate
normally, manually change
between the high beam and low
beam.
• While other beeps such as the seat belt warning sound are in opera-
tion and override the LKA alarm-
ing system, LKA beeps may not
occur.
Turn signals and lane change
signals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on
the turn signals, move the lever up or
down (A). The green arrow indicators
on the instrument panel indicate
which turn signal is operating.
They will self-cancel after a turn is
completed. If the indicator continues
to flash after a turn, manually return
the lever to the OFF position.
To signal a lane change, move the
turn signal lever slightly and hold it in
position (B). The lever will return to
the OFF position when released.

Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another
station with a stronger signal.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this
effect until the disturbance clears. Station Swapping - As an FM sig-
nal weakens, another more power-
ful signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a
stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by a
direct and reflected signal from the
same station, or by signals from
two stations with close frequencies.
If this occurs, select another station
until the condition has passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
try to operate mobile devices as far
from the audio equipment as possible.
When using a communication sys-
tem such as a cellular phone or a
radio set inside the vehicle, a sepa-
rate external antenna must be fitted.
When a cellular phone or a radio set
is used with an internal antenna
alone, it may interfere with the vehi-
cle's electrical system and adversely
affect safe operation of the vehicle.

Driving your vehicle
System description
BCW 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.
1) Blind-Spot Area
It warns by detecting the vehicles in
the blind spots.
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
BCW feature will alert you when a
vehicle is approaching in an adjacent
lane at a high rate of speed. If the
driver activates the turn signal when
the system detects an oncoming
vehicle, the system sounds an audi-
ble alert.
