Sensor Location (Left Side Shown)
The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in
the detection zones by illuminating the BSM
warning light located in the outside mirrors. In
addition, when the turn signal is activated
during the alert on the side of the vehicle
corresponding to the alert, an audible (chime)
alert can be heard. During the audible (chime)
alert, the radio volume will be reduced. Refer to
“Modes Of Operation” for further information.

during these types of zone entries.

Side Monitoring
Entering From The Rear
