WARNING

Always check the surrounding area
visually before actually putting the
vehicle in reverse:

The system is only designed to assist
you in checking for vehicles at the rear
when putting the vehicle in reverse.
Due to certain limitations with the
operation of this system, the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) warning indicator
lights may not flash or it might be
delayed even though a vehicle is
behind your vehicle. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check
the rear.

RCTA operation

1. The RCTA system operates when

the shift lever (manual
transmission) or the selector lever
(automatic transmission) is shifted
to the reverse (R) position.

2. If there is the possibility of a

collision with an approaching
vehicle, the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator lights
flashes and the warning beep is
activated simultaneously.

Rear view monitor (vehicles with
Rear view monitor)

The RCTA warning indication in the
rearview monitor also synchronizes
with the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator light on
the door mirrors.

360°view monitor (vehicles with
360°view monitor)

The RCTA warning indication in the
360°view monitor also
synchronizes with the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator light on the door mirrors.

Function for canceling illumination
dimmer

If the BSM warning indicator lights turn
on when the parking lights are turned
on, the brightness of the BSM warning
indicator lights is dimmed.
If the BSM warning indicator lights are
difficult to see due to glare from
surrounding brightness when traveling
on snow-covered roads or under foggy
conditions, press the dimmer
cancellation button to cancel the
dimmer and increase the brightness of
BSM warning indicator lights when
they turn on.
Refer to Dashboard Illumination on
page 4-18.

NOTE

The system may operate under the
following conditions even if a vehicle
is not approaching.

An object that reflects the radio
waves of the radar such as a
parked vehicle, guardrail, or wall is
directly next to your vehicle.

A vehicle approaching from the
rear left and right side of your
vehicle slows down.
