Overtaking Traffic
If you pass another vehicle slowly with a relative 

speed less than 15 mph (24 km/h) and the 

vehicle remains in the blind spot for 

approximately 1.5 seconds, the warning light 

will be illuminated. If the difference in speed 

between the two vehicles is greater than 

15 mph (24 km/h), the warning light will not 

illuminate.

Overtaking/Approaching

Overtaking/Passing

The BSM system is designed not to issue an 

alert on stationary objects such as guardrails, 

posts, walls, foliage, berms, etc. However, 

occasionally the system may alert on such 

objects. This is normal operation and your 

vehicle does not require service.
The BSM system will not alert you of objects that 

are traveling in the opposite direction of the 

vehicle in adjacent lanes

Opposing Traffic

WARNING!

The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an 

aid to help detect objects in the blind spot 

zones. The BSM system is not designed to 

detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. 

Even if your vehicle is equipped with the BSM 

system, always check your vehicle’s mirrors, 

glance over your shoulder, and use your turn 

signal before changing lanes. Failure to do so 

can result in serious injury or death.
