Blind Spot Intervention System Operation Description
- ADAS control unit 2 enables Blind Spot Intervention system.
- Combination meter turns Blind Spot Intervention system display ON/OFF according to the signals from ADAS control unit 2 via CAN communication. (via ADAS control unit)
- Side radar detects a vehicle in the adjacent lane, and transmits the vehicle detection signal to ADAS control unit 2 via ITS communication.
- Side radar receives vehicle speed signal from ADAS control unit 2 and changes its detecting function.
- Front camera unit monitors lane markers of the traveling lane and transmits the detected lane condition signal to ADAS control unit 2 via chassis communication.
- ADAS control unit 2 starts the control as follows, based on a vehicle detection signal, lane condition signal, turn signal and position light request signal transmitted from BCM via CAN communication:
- Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention indicator signal and Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention indicator dimmer signal transmission to side radar.
- Calculation of necessary yaw moment and transmission of the target yaw moment signal to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
- Side radar transmits an indicator operation signal to the Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention indicator according to Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention indicator operation signal and Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention indicator dimmer signal.
- ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) controls brake pressure of four wheels respectively according to the target yaw moment signal.
Operation Condition of Blind Spot Intervention System
- Blind Spot Intervention system display (green): ON
- Vehicle speed: Approximately 60 km/h (37 MPH) or more
NOTE:
- When the Blind Spot Intervention system setting on the integral switch is ON.
- The Blind Spot Intervention system may not function properly, depending on the situation. Refer to Precautions for Blind Spot Warning/Blind Spot Intervention .
- Blind Spot Intervention braking will not operate or will stop operating and only a warning chime will sound under the following conditions.
- When the brake pedal is depressed.
- When the accelerator pedal is depressed while brake control assist is provided.
- When steering quickly.
- When the ICC, DCA, PFCW or FEB warnings sound.
- When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
- When driving on a curve at a high speed.
- Under the following conditions, the Blind Spot Intervention system will be turned off automatically, a beep will sound and the Blind Spot Intervention system display will change color to yellow. The BSW system is still available, but the Blind Spot Intervention system will not be available until the conditions no longer exist.
- When the VDC system (except TCS function) or ABS operates.
- When the VDC system is turned OFF.
- When the drive mode select switch is turned to the SNOW mode.
