BSI Radar Unit Mounting Area Check: Adjustment

NOTE: Unless indicated, the illustration shows the left side. The right side is symmetrical.

Before Inspection:

Do not make any bumper repairs in the areas over or near the two radar units on vehicles equipped with the blind point information (BSI) system. The composition of the repair materials, and/or increased material thickness in the repaired area, may interfere with BSI radar unit operation.
Clean the surface of the BSI radar unit.
Make sure the suspension has not been modified.
Make sure all the tire sizes are correct and that their pressure is correct.
Make sure the fuel tank is full.
Remove all cargo from the vehicle except the tool kit and the spare tire.
Make sure the steering wheel is pointed straight ahead, and do not turn it after setting the vehicle.
If the vehicle you are aiming was involved in a collision or if you suspect the alignment is out of specifications, you must perform a wheel alignment prior to aiming the BSI Radar Unit.

Prepare the items shown:

NOTE: When marking on the floor surface, use suitable tape to mark the exact locations.
