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 for
lane changing decision.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary 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 seri-
ous injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.

WARNING
●Keep the sensors and the sur-
rounding areas on the rear
bumper clean at all times.
If a sensor or its surrounding area
on the rear bumper is dirty or cov-
ered with snow, the Blind Spot
Monitor may not operate and a
warning message ( P.268) will
be displayed. In this situation,
clear off the dirt or snow and drive

■Auto Trailer Detection (ATD)
Auto Trailer Detect ion (ATD) detects
if a trailer is attached by using the
Trailer Brake Controller (TBC) or the
Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) sensors.
●Trailers that use TBC can be
detected by using the 7-pin trailer
brake connectors.
●Other types of trailers can be
detected using the BSM sensors.
●When a trailer is detected via BSM
or TBC, RCTA function will be dis-
abled.
●As soon as the tra iler is detected,
the detectio n area will be
extended to a maximum length of
approximately 16 ft. (15 m) from
the rear bumper of the truck.
●If the trailer does not have a 7-pin
connector, or the 7-pin connector
is not engaged, the trailer is
detected via the BSM sensor. In
this case PKSB and Intuitive park-
ing assist functi ons will not be dis-
abled.
●For trailer auto detection without engagement of 7-pin connector,
the vehicle should be moving for-
ward at speed of above 0.6 mph
(1 km/h) for at l
east 10 seconds.
●ATD function is triggered at every
power switch on/of f cycle or if the
vehicle is stopped in shift the shift
lever is in P or N for more than 90
seconds.
●Trailer detection vis BSM sensors
may be delayed if the vehicle is in
a crowded environment such as
busy parking lot, area surrounded
with trees (camping ground) or in
an environment with objects in the
immediate environment that pre-
vent sensors from sufficiently
detecting the trailer.
■Trailer Length Detection (TLD)
●Once a trailer is detected and if
the trailer length in the meter is
selected as “Auto”, the TLD func-
tion will estimate the trailer length
using the Blind Spot Monitor sen-
sors.
In order to estimate the trailer length
with TLD function and detection
area, make at least two 90 degree
turns.
If the trailer length is entered manu-
ally via multi-information display
input, the detection area is also
adjusted to exceed the length of the
trailer.
●Depending on some trailer types
and the dimensions of the trailer
TMW performance may be
degraded.
■Vehicles that can be detected by the Blind Spot Monitor
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect the fol-
lowing vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the dri ver of
the presence of such vehicles v ia the indicators on the outside rear
view mirrors.
