  1. When starting the engine with the switch OFF, OFF mode is ON.

    * The systems can be separately controlled based on each activation condition. For example, BSD & LCA systems are turned ON by BSD switch button and RCTA system is turned ON by RCTA USM switch.

  2. When pressing ON switch in OFF mode, Passive mode is ON.
  3. If starting the engine with the switch OFF, Passive mode is ON.

    * When IGN is ON, the switch is in the initial state: The last position is kept.

    • If IGN OFF -> ON with the switch ON, the switch is ON.
    • If IGN OFF -> ON with the switch OFF, the switch is OFF.
  4. If engine is started during BSD switch ON state or if BSD & LCA are turned on during BSD switch OFF state, the warning lamp of the door mirror turns on for 3 seconds.
  5. If the activation conditions (speed and curvature radius) are met while driving, Active mode is ON (warning issued).
  6. If the activation conditions (speed or curvature radius) are not met while driving, Passive mode is ON (warning suppressed).
  7. Depending on the detected errors, BSD & LCA system (including RCTA system) becomes Fail mode.
  8. If the detected error is lifted, BSD & LCA systems (including RCTA system) change to the last mode before Fail mode.
  9. If pressing OFF switch while the system is running, the system becomes OFF mode.

    * Since the systems are controlled separately, only BSD & LCA systems become OFF mode when pressing BSD switch OFF. And only RCTA system becomes OFF mode when choosing RCTA USM OFF.
