WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an
aid to help detect objects in the blind spot
zones. The BSM system is not designed to
detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the BSM
system, always check your vehicles mirrors,
glance over your shoulder, and use your turn
signal before changing lanes. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.

Rear Cross Path

The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is intended
to aid the driver when backing out of parking
spaces where their vision of oncoming vehicles
may be blocked. Proceed slowly and cau-
tiously out of the parking space until the rear
end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP system
will then have a clear view of the cross traffic
and if an oncoming vehicle is detected, alert
the driver.
RCP Detection Zones
RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both
sides of the vehicle, for objects that are moving
toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum
speed of approximately 1 to 2 mph (1 km/h to
3 km/h), to objects moving a maximum of
approximately 10 mph (16 km/h), such as in
parking lot situations.
NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles
can be obscured by vehicles parked on
either side. If the sensors are blocked by
other structures or vehicles, the system will
not be able to alert the driver.
