Blind Spot Information System (BSI)

The BSI turns on the BSI alert indicators (A) on the door mirror covers when another vehicle in the next lane enters the "blind" area where the driver cannot see the vehicle with his peripheral vision or with the inside and outside rearview mirrors.

NOTE:
  • The BSI system does not ensure the safety of the vehicle occupants, nor does it help in low visibility situations such as bad weather.
  • The BSI system turns on/blinks* the BSI alert indicator in the following situations.

*: When moving the turn signal lever toward the side with the BSI alert indicator on, the alert indicator blinks to alert driver.
