The brightness of the BSW indicator light is adjusted automatically depending on the brightness of the ambient light. A chime sounds if the radar sensors have already detected vehicles when the driver activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into the detection zone after the driver activates the turn signal, then only the BSW indicator light flashes and no chime sounds. For additional information, refer to "BSW driving situations" in this section. The BSW system automatically turns on every time the engine is started, as long as it is activated using the settings menu on the vehicle information display. SSD1030 LSD2053 Detection zone The radar sensors can detect vehicles on either side of your vehicle within the detection zone shown as illustrated. This detection zone starts from the outside mirror of your vehicle and extends approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) sideways. The BSW system operates above approximately 20 MPH (32 km/h). If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the detection zone, the Blind Spot Warning indicator light illuminates. If the driver then activates the turn signal, a chime will sound twice and the Blind Spot Warning indicator light will flash. BSW indicator light BSW SYSTEM OPERATION If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the detection zone, the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) indicator light located by the outside mirrors illuminates.

The BSW indicator light illuminates for a few seconds when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. 5-20 Starting and driving
