change lanes without first activating
your turn signal or, for example, if a
construction zone directs traffic to
cross an existing lane marker. If this
occurs you may need to apply cor-
rective steering to complete your
lane change.
.Because the LDP may not activate
under the road, weather, and lane
marker conditions described in this
section, it may not activate every
time your vehicle begins to leave its
lane and you will need to apply
corrective steering.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the BSW
system could result in serious injury or
death.
.The BSW system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedure
and is 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 direction your vehi-
cle will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes. Never rely solely on
the BSW system.
The BSW system helps alert the driver of other
vehicles in adjacent lanes when changing lanes.
JVS0649X
The BSW system uses radar sensors*1
installed near the rear bumper to detect other
vehicles in an adjacent lane.
SSD1030
Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on either
side of your vehicle within the detection zone
shown as illustrated. This detection zone starts
from the outside mirror of your vehicle and
extends approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the
rear bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)
sideways.

without LDP system)
BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
The BSW system operates above approximately
20 MPH (32 km/h) .
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light
*1
illuminates.If the turn signal is then activated, the system
chimes (twice) and the side indicator light
flashes. The side indicator light continues to
flash until the detected vehicle leaves the
detection zone.
The side indicator light illuminates for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
The brightness of the side indicator light is
adjusted automatically depending on the bright-
ness of the ambient light.
If a vehicle comes into the detection zone after
the driver activates the turn signal, then only the
side indicator light flashes and no chime sounds.
For additional information, refer to “BSW driving
situations” (P.5-46).
