Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

is designed to help detect and monitor

approaching vehicles in the driver’s

blind spot area and warn the driver

of a possible collision with a warning

message and audible warning.

In addition, if there is a risk of collision

when changing lanes or driving forward

out of a parking space, Blind-Spot

Collision-Avoidance Assist will help avoid

collision by applying the brake.

OJX1070026R

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

helps detect and inform the driver that

a vehicle is approaching at high speed

from the blind spot area.

CAUTION

Warning timing may vary depending on

the speed of the vehicle approaching at

high speed.

OJX1070025R

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

helps detect and inform the driver that a

vehicle is in the blind spot.

CAUTION

The detecting range may vary

depending on the speed of your vehicle.

However, even if there is a vehicle in the

blind spot area, Blind-Spot Collision-

Avoidance Assist may not warn you

when you pass by at high speeds.

Collision Warning

WARNING

śꢀ Collision warning will operate when

the turn signal is turned on in the

direction of the detected vehicle.

śꢀ If ‘Warning Only’ is selected from the

Settings menu, the collision warning

will operate when your vehicle

approaches the lane the blind spot

vehicle is detected.

śꢀ The detecting range of the rear

corner radar is determined by a

standard road width, therefore, on

a narrow road, Blind-Spot Collision-

Avoidance Assist may detect other

vehicles in the next next lane and

warn you. In contrast, on a wide

road, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance

Assist may not be able to detect a

vehicle driving in the next lane and

may not warn you.

śꢀ To warn the driver of a collision, the

warning light on the outside rearview

mirror and head-up display (if

equipped) will blink. At the same time,

an audible warning will sound and the

steering wheel will vibrate.

śꢀ When the hazard warning flasher is

on, the collision warning by the turn

signal will not operate.

śꢀ When the turn signal is turned off or

you move away from the lane, the

collision warning will be cancelled and

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

will return to vehicle detection state.

Information

śꢀ If the driver's seat is on the left side, the

collision warning may occur when you

turn left. Maintain a proper distance

with the vehicles in the left lane. If the

driver's seat is on the right side, the

collision warning may occur when you

turn right. Maintain a proper distance

with the vehicles in the right lane.

Collision-Avoidance Assist’s warning

message may not be displayed

and audible warning may not be

generated.

śꢀ Driver should maintain control of the

vehicle at all times. Do not depend

on Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance

Assist. Maintain a safe braking

distance, and if necessary, depress

the brake pedal to reduce driving

speed or to stop the vehicle.

śꢀ Never operate Blind-Spot Collision-

Avoidance Assist on people, animal,

objects, etc. It may cause serious

injury or death.

properly depending on the status of

ESC (Electronic Stability Control).

There will only be a warning when:

-

The ESC (Electronic Stability Control)

warning light is on

ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is

engaged in a different function

śꢀ When Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance

Assist is operating, braking control

by the system will automatically

cancel when the driver excessively

depresses the accelerator pedal or

sharply steers the vehicle.

śꢀ During Blind-Spot Collision-

Avoidance Assist operation, the

vehicle may stop suddenly injuring

passengers and shifting loose

objects. Always have the seat belt on

and keep loose objects secured.

vehicle is turned on.

OTM070098N

When the rear bumper around the rear

corner radar or sensor is covered with

foreign material, such as snow or rain,

or installing a trailer or carrier, it can

reduce the detecting performance and

temporarily limit or disable Blind-Spot

Collision-Avoidance Assist.

CAUTION
