7-19. BSD/RCTA (if equipped)
The BSD/RCTA consists of rear corner
radars with Blind Spot Detection and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert.
These functions enable the system to
detect objects or vehicles to the rear,
drawing attention to the driver when
changing a lane or when driving in reverse.
When using the Hill start assist system, a
braking effect may be felt even after the
brake pedal has been released.
WARNING
The driver is responsible for driving
safely. Always be sure to check the
surroundings when changing lanes
or reversing the vehicle.
CAUTION
The braking power of the Hill start
assist system may not be sufficient
when strong braking power is
needed (e.g., when towing a trailer).
The system is designed to assist the
driver to change lanes or reverse
safely by monitoring the rear and
side areas of the vehicle. However,
you cannot rely on this system alone
in assuring the safety during a lane
change or reversing. Overconfi-
dence in this system could result in
an accident and lead to serious
injury or death. Since the system
operation has various limitations,
the flashing or illumination of the
BSD/RCTA approach indicator light
may be delayed or the warning
buzzer may be delayed or inopera-
NOTE
A slight jolt may be felt when the
vehicle begins to move forward after
being reversed.
