Blind Spot Warning (Bsw) (With Lane Change Assist) (If So Equipped) - Mitsubishi MOTORS Outlander PHEV 2018 Owner's Manual

Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
(with Lane Change Assist)
so equipped)
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) is a driving
aid system that alerts the driver when another
vehicle which may not be visible through the
outside rearview mirror is traveling in the
next lane behind your vehicle.
When a vehicle in the next lane is traveling at
same speed or faster in the detection areas,
the Blind Spot Warning light in the corre-
sponding outside rearview mirror will illumi-
nate. If the turn signal lever is operated to the
side where the Blind Spot Warning light is
illuminated, the Blind Spot Warning light will
blink and the system will beep three times to
alert the driver.
Depending on the relative speed between
your vehicle and a vehicle in the next lane,
the Blind Spot Warning system will detect up
to approximately 230 feet (70 m) from your
vehicle. (Lane Change Assist)
