beyond the side of your vehicle, this may result in the

BSM warning light remaining illuminated the entire

time the vehicle is in a forward gear.

The area on the rear fascia where the radar sensors are

located must remain free of snow, ice, and dirt/road

contamination so that the BSM system can function

properly. Do not block the area of the rear fascia where

the radar sensors are located with foreign objects (bum-

per stickers, bicycle racks, etc.)
The BSM system will provide a visual alert in the

appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object.

If the turn signal is then activated, and it corresponds to

an alert present on that side of the vehicle, an audible

chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and

detected object are present on the same side at the same

time, both the visual and audio alerts will be issued. In

addition to the audible alert the radio (if on) will also be

muted.

The BSM system monitors the detection zone from three

different entry points (side, rear, front) while driving to

see if an alert is necessary. The BSM system will issue an

alert during these types of zone entries.
