When the steering wheel operation
assist operates, a warning sound and
warning indications on displays alert
the driver of the possibility of a
collision. Furthermore, if the possibility
of a collision increases, a warning
sound and display indications alert the
driver of the danger.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Blind
Spot Assist function and always drive
carefully:
¾The Blind Spot Assist function has
limitations. Do not rely completely
on the system and always stay on
course using the steering wheel.
¾The Blind Spot Assist function is not
an autonomous driving system. In
addition, the system is not designed
to compensate for a driver’s lack of
caution, and over-reliance on the
system could lead to an accident.
¾The detection area of the camera
and sensors is limited. If the steering
wheel operation assist is operated
without detecting a two-wheeled
vehicle near the detecting vehicle, it
could result in an accident.
Do not use the system under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident:
¾The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
¾Tyres other than the specified size are
used, such as when tyre chains or
temporary spare tyres are used.
¾The vehicle is towing a camping
trailer or boat trailer.
¾The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways and highways.
¾The rear bumper around a rear side
radar sensor is deformed.
