Blind spot monitoring
The radar monitors the area extending from the
exterior mirror rearwards, to approximately
6mtr (20ft) behind the rear wheels, and up to
2.5mtr (8.2ft) from the side of the vehicle (the
width of a typical carriageway lane).
SENSOR BLOCKAGE
If one of the sensors is completely obscured
the BSM system is automatically disabled, the
warning indicator dot is displayed in the
exterior mirror and the message BSM sensor
blocked appears in the message centre.
Note: This radar sensor is approved in all RTTE
countries.
Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when
vehicle speed is above 32km/h (20mph) and
will take at least two minutes of accumulated
driving above this speed, to determine that the
sensor is blocked.
Note: The system covers an area of a fixed lane
width. If the lanes are narrower than a typical
carriageway lane, objects travelling in
non-adjacent lanes may be detected.
BSM is activated when the ignition is switched
on, at which point it performs a self-check,
during which the warning icons in the exterior
mirrors will illuminate for a short period of
time. The system actively monitors when the
vehicle is travelling at more than 16km/h
If the sensors become blocked, then please
check that there is nothing obscuring the rear
bumper and that it is clear from ice, frost and
dirt.
Note: The BSM system is inoperative while a
trailer is attached and the trailer socket is used.
(10mph)
in a forward gear.
The amber warning indicator dot (2) remains
illuminated until forward vehicle speed exceeds
16km/h (10mph).
SYSTEM FAULT
If a fault with one of the radar sensors is
detected, an amber warning indicator dot is
displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM not available is displayed in the
message centre.
BSM is designed to work most effectively when
driving on multi-lane highways. See 56,
VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGS
MENU.
Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the
radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the
whole system is disabled. If the fault is
temporary, the system will operate correctly
once the engine has been switched off and then
on again.
Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on
both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the
warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.
Note: BSM is automatically turned off when
reverse (R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is
in park (P), the vehicle is travelling below
16km/h (10mph). Under these conditions, the
warning indicator dot in the exterior mirrors is
displayed.
If a fault in the system occurs, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
