Nissan Murano: Starting and driving / Blind Spot Warning (BSW) (if so equipped)

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
for proper use of the BSW
system could result in serious injury or
death.
- The BSWsystem is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is
not designed to prevent contact with
vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direction
your vehicle will move to ensure it
is safe to change lanes. Never rely
solely on the BSWsystem.
