WHAT IS BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM
BLIS with Cross-Traffic Alert
Blind spot information system detectsvehicles that may have entered the blindspot zone.
HOW DOES BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM WORK
Blind spot information system uses sensorson both sides of your vehicle, detectingrearward from the exterior mirrors toapproximately 13 ft (4 m) beyond the rearbumper. The detection area extends toapproximately 59 ft (18 m) beyond the rearbumper when the vehicle speed is greaterthan 30 mph (48 km/h) to alert you of fasterapproaching vehicles.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not use the blind spotinformation system as a replacement forusing the interior and exterior mirrors orlooking over your shoulder beforechanging lanes. The blind spot informationsystem is not a replacement for carefuldriving.
WARNING: The system may notoperate properly during severe weatherconditions, for example snow, ice, heavyrain and spray. Always drive with due careand attention. Failure to take care mayresult in a crash.
Note: Blind spot information system doesnot prevent contact with other vehicles. Itdoes not detect parked vehicles,pedestrians, animals or other infrastructure.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Blind spot information system does notoperate in park (P) or reverse (R).
The system may not alert you if a vehiclequickly passes through the detection zone.

Note:The system may not correctly operatewhen towing a trailer. For vehicles with atrailer tow module and tow bar approved byus, the system turns off when you attach atrailer. For vehicles with an aftermarkettrailer tow module or tow bar, werecommend that you switch the system offwhen you attach a trailer.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Blind spot information system turns on whenall the following occur:
•You start your vehicle.
•You shift into drive (D).
•The vehicle speed is greater than 6 mph(10 km/h).
SWITCHING BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM ON AND
OFF
To switch blind spot information system onor off, use the instrument cluster display:
1.Using the instrument cluster displaycontrols on the steering wheel, selectSETTINGS.
2.Select Driver assistance.
3.Switch Blindspot on or off.
When you switch blind spot informationsystem off, a warning lamp illuminates anda message displays. When you switch thesystem on or off, the alert indicators flashtwice.
Note:The system remembers the last settingwhen you start your vehicle.
To permanently switch the system off,contact an authorized dealer.
LOCATING THE BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM SENSORS
The sensors are behind the rear bumper onboth sides of your vehicle.
Note:Blocked sensors may affect systemaccuracy.
Note:Keep the sensors free from snow, iceand large accumulations of dirt.
Note:Do not cover the sensors with bumperstickers, repair compound or other objects.
Note:Bike and cargo racks could causefalse alerts due to obstruction of the sensor.We recommend switching the feature offwhen using a bike or cargo rack.

If the sensors become blocked, a messagemay appear in the information display. Thealert indicators remain illuminated but thesystem does not alert you.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM INDICATORS
When blind spot informationsystem detects a vehicle, an alertindicator illuminates in the exteriormirror on the side the approaching vehicleis coming from. If you turn the turn signal onfor that side of your vehicle, the alertindicator flashes.

WHAT IS CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
The system alerts you of vehiclesapproaching from the sides behind yourvehicle when you shift into reverse (R).
HOW DOES CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT WORK
Cross traffic alert detects vehicles thatapproach at a speed between 4–37 mph(6–60 km/h). Coverage decreases when thesensors are partially, mostly or fullyobstructed.
The sensor on the left-hand side is onlypartially obstructed and zone coverage onthe right-hand side is maximized.
Zone coverage also decreases when parkingat narrow angles. The sensor on the left-handside is mostly obstructed and zone coverageon that side is severely reduced.
Note: Slowly reversing helps increase thecoverage area and effectiveness.
CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not use the crosstraffic alert system as a replacement forusing the interior and exterior mirrors orlooking over your shoulder beforereversing out of a parking space. The crosstraffic alert system is not a replacement forcareful driving.
WARNING: The system may notoperate properly during severe weatherconditions, for example snow, ice, heavyrain and spray. Always drive with due careand attention. Failure to take care mayresult in a crash.

PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention. Failureto follow this instruction could result in theloss of control of your vehicle, personalinjury or death.
WARNING: The system does notdetect vehicles moving in a differentdirection or animals. Apply the brakeswhen necessary. Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in the loss ofcontrol of your vehicle, personal injury ordeath.
WARNING: The system does notoperate during hard acceleration orsteering. Failure to take care may lead toa crash or personal injury.
WARNING: The system may operatewith reduced function during cold andinclement weather conditions. Snow, ice,rain, spray and fog can adversely affect thesystem. Keep the front camera and radarfree of snow and ice. Failure to follow thisinstruction may result in the loss of controlof your vehicle, serious personal injury ordeath.
WARNING: Take additional care ifyour vehicle is heavily loaded or you aretowing a trailer. These conditions couldresult in reduced performance of thissystem. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system cannot helpprevent all crashes. Do not rely on thissystem to replace driver judgment and theneed to maintain a safe distance andspeed.
WARNING: System performancecould be reduced in situations where thevehicle camera has limited detectioncapability. These situations include but arenot limited to direct or low sunlight,vehicles at night without tail lights,unconventional vehicle types, andpedestrians and cyclists with complex,partially obscured backgrounds. Failure totake care may result in the loss of controlof your vehicle, personal injury or death.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on the detectionability of its camera and sensors. Anyobstructions or damage to these areas canlimit detection or prevent the system fromfunctioning. See Locating the Pre-CollisionAssist Sensors (page 288).
The system is active at 3 mph (5 km/h) andabove.
287

Note:The pre-collision assist systemdisables when you select four-wheel drivelow or manually disable AdvanceTrac™.
Note:Brake support and automaticemergency braking are active at speeds upto 75 mph (120 km/h). If the vehicle has aradar sensor included with adaptive cruisecontrol, then brake support and automaticemergency braking are active up to themaximum speed of the vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speeds upto 50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection functions optimallywhen detected hazards are clearlyidentifiable. System performance may reducein situations where pedestrians are running,partly obscured, have a complexbackground, or cannot be distinguished froma group.
LOCATING THE PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST SENSORS
Camera.1
Radar sensor (if equipped).2
If a message regarding a blocked sensor orcamera appears in the information display,something is obstructing the radar signals orcamera images. The radar sensor is behindthe fascia cover in the center of the lowergrille. With a blocked sensor or camera, thesystem may not function, or performancemay reduce. See Pre-Collision Assist –Information Messages (page 292).
Note:Proper system operation requires aclear view of the road by the camera. Haveany windshield damage in the area of thecamera's field of view repaired.
Note:If something hits the front end of yourvehicle or damage occurs and your vehiclehas a radar sensor, the radar sensing zonecould change. This could cause missed orfalse vehicle detections. Have your vehicleserviced to have the radar checked forproper coverage and operation.
Note:If your vehicle detects excessive heatat the camera or a potential misalignmentcondition, a message could display in theinformation display indicating temporarysensor unavailability. When operationalconditions are correct, the messagedeactivates. For example, when the ambienttemperature around the sensor decreasesor the sensor recalibrates successfully.
