Infiniti QX: BSW system operation
If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the detection zone, the BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM indicator light located inside the outside mirrors illuminates. If the turn signal is then activated, the BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM indicator light flashes and a chime sounds twice. The indicator light continues to flash until the detected vehicles leave the detection zone. The BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM indicator lights illuminate for a few seconds when the ignition switch is pushed to the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM indicator lights is adjusted automatically depending on the brightness of the ambient light. A chime sounds if the radar sensors have already detected vehicles when the driver activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into the detection zone after the driver activates the turn signal, then only the BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM indicator light flashes and no chime sounds. (See “BSW/Blind Spot InterventionTM driving situations” later in this section.)
The warning systems switch is used to turn on and off the BSW system when it is activated using the settings menu on the center display. See “How to enable/disable the BSW system using the settings menu” later in this section. When the warning systems switch is turned off, the indicator 1 on the switch is off. The indicator will also be off if the BSW, the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) systems are deactivated. For the LDW and FCW systems, see “Lane Departure Warning (LDW)/Prevention (LDP) system ” earlier in this section and “Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system” later in this section.
