OJA052171
OJA052172
僅 Collision warning will operate when
the turn signal is turned on in the
direction of the detected vehicle.
僅 When the turn signal is turned off or
you move away from the lane, the col-
lision warning will be cancelled and
Blind-Spot Collision Warning will
return to vehicle detection state.
WARNING
僅 The detecting range of the rear corner
radar is determined by the standard
road width, therefore, on a narrow
Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)
road, Blind-Spot Collision Warning
may detect other vehicles in the next
lane and warn you. In contrast, on a
wide road, Blind-Spot Collision Warn-
ing may not be able to detect a vehi-
cle driving in the next lane and may
not warn you.
僅 When the hazard warning light is on,
the collision warning by the turn sig-
nal will not operate.
Take the following precautions when
using Blind-Spot Safety function:
僅 For your safety, change the Settings
after parking the vehicle at a safe
location.
僅 If any other function's warning mes-
sage is displayed or audible warning
is generated, Blind-Spot Safety func-
tion's warning message may not be
displayed and audible warning may
not be generated.
僅 You may not hear the warning sound
of Blind-Spot Safety function if the
surrounding is noisy. Blind-Spot
Safety function may warn the driver
late or may not warn the driver
depending on the road and driving
conditions.
僅 Driver should maintain control of the
vehicle at all times. Do not depend on
Blind-Spot Safety function. Maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce driving speed or to stop the
vehicle.
NOTICE
If the driver's seat is on the left side, the
collision warning may occur when you
turn left. Maintain a proper distance with
the vehicles in the left lane. If the driver's
seat is on the right side, the collision
warning may occur when you turn right.
