WARNING
Do not use the BSI system under the follow-
ing conditions because the system may not
function properly.
– During bad weather (e.g. rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.)
– When driving on slippery roads, such as
on ice or snow, etc.
– When driving on winding or uneven roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to road
repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow.
– When driving with a tire that is not within
normal tire conditions (e.g. tire wear, low
tire pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, non-standard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-
original brake parts or suspension parts.
Do not use the BSW or BSI systems when
towing a trailer.
Excessive noise (e.g. audio system volume,
open vehicle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be heard.
The radar sensors may not be able to detect
and activate BSI/BSW when certain objects
are present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
– Several types of vehicles such as motor-
cycles
– Oncoming vehicles
– Vehicles remaining in the detection zone
when you accelerate from a stop
(See
“BSW/BSI
DRIVING
SITUATIONS”
later in this section)
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane at
a speed approximately the same as your
vehicle
(See
“BSW/BSI
DRIVING
SITUATIONS”
later in this section)
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from be-
hind.
(See
“BSW/BSI
DRIVING
SITUATIONS”
later in this section)
– A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes
rapidly.
(See
“BSW/BSI
DRIVING
SITUATIONS”
later in this section)
Severe
weather
or
road
spray
conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to detect
other vehicles.
