• If an approaching vehicle detected by
sensors, the warning is chime and the
warning light will blink on the outside
rearview mirror.
• If the detected vehicle is out of de‐
tection range, moving away in the
opposite direction or moving slow,
the warning is cancelled.
• The system may not be operating
properly due to other factors or cir‐
cumstances, so always pay attention
to your surrounding.
❈ If the bumper on either side is
blocked by a barrier or vehicles, the
system sensing ability may be de‐
teriorated.
WARNING
• The warning light on the outside
rearview mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detected at
the rear side by the system.
To avoid accidents, do not focus
only on the warning light and ne‐
glect to see the surrounding of the
vehicle.
• Drive safely even though the vehi‐
cle is equipped with a BSD (Blind
spot detection) system. Do not
solely rely on the system but
check for yourself before changing
lanes.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so al‐
ways check the surroundings while
driving.
CAUTION
• The system may not work proper‐
ly if the bumper has been replaced
or if a repair work has been done
near the sensor.
