BSD / RCTA
lowers . – When an overvoltage occurs in the vehicle battery .
When the above conditions are corrected , the BSD / RCTA will resume operation and the BSD / RCTA OFF indicator light will disappear . However , if the BSD / RCTA OFF indicator light has appeared for a prolonged time , have the system inspected at a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible .
. The detectability of the radar sensors is restricted . The BSD / RCTA detection may be impaired and the system may not operate properly under the following conditions . – When the rear bumper around the radar sensors is distorted .
– When ice , snow or mud adheres to the rear bumper surface around the radar sensors .
– When stickers , etc . are affixed on the areas of the radar sensors on the rear bumper .
– During adverse weather conditions such as rain , snow or fog
– When driving on wet roads such as snow-covered roads or through puddles
. The radar sensors may not detect or may have difficulty detecting the following . – Small motorcycles , bicycles , pedestrians , stationary objects on the road or road side , etc .
– Vehicles with body shapes that the radar may not reflect ( vehicles with a low body height such as sports cars or a trailer with no cargo ).
– Vehicles that are not approaching your vehicle even though they are in the detection area ( either on a neighboring lane to the rear or beside your vehicle when reversing ). ( The system determines the presence of approaching vehicles based on data detected by the radar sensors .) – Vehicles traveling at significantly different speeds
– Vehicles driving parallel to your vehicle at almost the same speed for a prolonged time – Oncoming vehicles – Vehicles in a lane beyond the neighboring lane – Vehicles travelling at a significantly lower speed that you are trying to overtake
. On a road with extremely narrow lanes , the system may detect vehicles driving in a lane next to the neighboring lane .
. When the 8-inch audio / navigation system is performing a software update , the RCTA warning icons may not be displayed on the audio / navigation screen until the update is complete .
& BSD / RCTA approach indicator light / warning buzzer
S07BM03
When the BSD / RCTA is active , the BSD / RCTA approach indicator light will operate to alert the driver when there are vehicles in the neighboring lanes . When reversing the vehicle , the BSD / RCTA approach indicator light and warning buzzer will operate to alert the driver that a vehicle is approaching from the left or right side .
