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.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, tak-
ing care to observe your surround- ings.
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 traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of the presence
of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear view mirrors.
WARNING
●Do not subject a sensor or its sur- rounding area on the rear bumper
to a strong impact. If a sensor is moved even slightly off position, the system may mal-
function and vehicles may not be detected correctly.In the following situations, have
your vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.

■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
vehicle cannot be detected.
*2: The greater the difference in speed between your vehicle and the detected vehi-
cle is, the farther away the vehicle will be detected, causing the outside rear view
mirror indicator to illuminate or flash.
