*: If equipped
BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on the
inner side of the rear bumper
on the left and right side to
assist the driver in confirming
safety when changing lanes.
WA R N I N G
■Cautions regarding the use of the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely, tak- ing care to observe your
surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a supple- mentary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is in a blind spot
of the outside rear view mirrors or is approaching rapidly from behind into
a blind spot. Do not overly rely on the
Blind Spot Monitor. As the function cannot judge if it is safe to change
lanes, over reliance could lead to an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
As the system may not function cor-
rectly under certain conditions, the driver’s own visual confirmation of
safety is necessary.

■Vehicles that can be detected by the Blind Spot Monitor
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect the following
vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of the presence
of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear view mirrors.
Vehicles that are traveling in areas that are not visible using the outside
rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
Vehicles that are approaching rapidl y from behind in areas that are not
visible using the outside rear view mirrors (the blind spots)
■The Blind Spot Monitor detection areas
The areas that vehicles can be detected in are outlined below.
The range of each detection area is:
Approximately 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) to 3.5 m (11.5 ft.) from either side of the
vehicle*1
Approximately 1 m (3.3 ft.) forward of the rear bumper
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) from the rear bumper
Approximately 3 m (9.8 ft.) to 60 m (197 ft.) from the rear bumper*2
*1: The area between the side of the vehicle and 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) from the side of the
Blind Spot Monitor operation

2624-5. Using the driving support systems
