Active Blind Spot Assist

Blindspot_mobile Blindspot_mobile

Active Blind Spot Assist (ABSA) increases the level of protection even more by overcoming one of the more common hazards on the road: vehicles entering your blind spot.

 

ABSA will try to prevent or mitigate the severity of collisions between you and vehicles entering blind spot zones. In order to do that, the system uses radar sensors placed on the rear bumper fascia to detect the presence of a vehicle. ABSA also uses the forward-facing camera placed behind the internal rear-view mirror that is used for lane detection and estimation.

ABSA continually assesses the space between you and the nearby vehicles by scanning blind spots on either side of your vehicle. If ABSA detects a vehicle entering your blind spot that you can’t see in your side mirrors, the system will alert you by illuminating a warning light in the exterior door mirrors. Additionally, if you have your signal on and are about to change lane, ABSA will alert you an audible warning and reduce the radio's volume. In this scenario, a steering wheel vibration will serve as an additional warning to alert you that the lane change is not safe.

The blind spot area

The blind spot area extends from immediately behind the exterior rear-view mirrors up to about 7 m (23 ft) behind the rear bumper. The ABSA system monitors the detection zone from three different entry points: side, rear, and overtaking traffic

Keep in mind

Keep in mind

  • You must always pay attention to the traffic situation and maintain a safe distance at both sides of your vehicle.
  • ABSA requires good visibility to function properly: the area on the rear bumper fascia where the radar sensors are located must remain free of snow, ice, and dirt.
  • ABSA requires you to keep your hands on the steering wheel at all times in order to function.
  • Sharp bends, slopes, poor lane boundaries and construction areas may challenge the system. You must always be ready to prevent any danger.
  • ABSA is not a substitute for physically checking your blind spot to ensure safe driving maneuvers such as lane changes.
  • ABSA is intended to be used only by licensed and alert users and under the conditions specified in a vehicle’s Owner’s Manual.
  • Read and understand a vehicle’s Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the ABSA system.
  • It is your responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
  • To avoid serious injury or death, do not rely on the ABSA system to prevent accidents or collisions as it is not designed to prevent loss of control or all accidents or collisions.
  • Always be prepared to take corrective action at all times.
  • Failure to follow these instructions and warnings can result in serious injury or death.

Focus on: Rear Cross Path function

Focus on: Rear Cross Path function

The Rear Cross Path function (RCP) is intended to aid you when you back out of a parking spot and a vehicle appears out of nowhere. Using peripheral sensors located on either side of the rear bumper, the RCP system monitors the rear detection zones on both sides of your vehicle.
When an unseen vehicle is approaching and you’re reversing out a parking space, the system will alert you with a visual and an acoustic alarm. If the radio is on, it will also reduce the volume.
Always remember to proceed very slowly and cautiously out of the parking space until the rear end of the vehicle is moderately exposed.
