For proper blind spot information system operation:

1. Always keep the rear bumper and area around the radar sensors clean.
2. Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with labels or stickers of any kind.

 

The blind spot information system alert indicator may not come on under the following conditions:

1. There is a large speed difference between your vehicle and the vehicle in the adjacent lane.
2. A vehicle is parked in a side lane.
3. An object not detected by the radar sensors approaches or passes your vehicle.
4. The vehicle driving in the adjacent lane is a motorcycle or other small vehicle.

 

The blind spot information system may not operate correctly under the following conditions:

1. Making a turn at an intersection.
2. Objects (guard rails, poles, trees, etc.) are detected.
3. An object that does not reflect radio waves well or a motorcycle is in the alert zone.
4. Driving on a curved road.
5. A vehicle is moving from a far lane to the adjacent lane.
6. The system picks up signal interference such as other radar sensors from another vehicle or strong radio wave transmitted from a facility nearby.
7. The rear bumper or the area around the radar sensors is covered by dirt, mud, snow, ice, etc.
8. The rear bumper or the area around the radar sensors has been damaged or deformed.
9. In bad weather (heavy rain, snow, and fog).
