BSM OFF Switch
When the BSM OFF switch is pressed, the
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear
Cross Traf c Alert (RCTA) systems are
turned off and the BSM OFF Indicator
Light in the instrument cluster turns on.
If the switch is pressed again, the Blind
Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross
Traf c Alert (RCTA) systems become
operable and the BSM OFF Indicator
Light turns off.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched off, the
condition before the system was turned
off is maintained. For example, if the
ignition is switched OFF while the
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear
Cross Traf c Alert (RCTA) systems are
operational, the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) and Rear Cross Traf c Alert
(RCTA) systems remain operational the
next time the ignition is switched ON.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and
Rear Cross Traf c Alert (RCTA) systems
are turned off when the battery is
disconnected such as when the battery
terminals or fuses have been removed
and re-installed. To turn the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross
Traf c Alert (RCTA) systems back on,
press the BSM OFF switch.
