244 Driving and Operating animal. When the system detects
that the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian ahead much too quickly,
the box changes to red.
With the Front Pedestrian Braking
system turned on, Night Vision
provides a red Head-Up Display
(HUD) alert when the system
detects that the vehicle is
approaching a pedestrian ahead
much too quickly. In addition, an
alert beeps or the Safety Alert Seat
pulses, if equipped. See Front
Pedestrian Braking (FPB)
System 0 241 . { WarningThe system does not detect all
objects or the vehicle distance
from objects. The system may not
provide a warning with enough
time to help avoid a crash.

3. Night Vision System By selecting a view on the
instrument cluster, the Night Vision
image can be displayed. See
Instrument Cluster (Uplevel) 0 121
or Instrument Cluster (Base Level)
0 118 . The Night Vision system can
operate only if:
.
The ignition is on.
.
The vehicle is in P (Park) or a
forward gear.
.
It is dark enough outside.
.
The headlamps are on.
Adjust the instrument panel
brightness to make the image no
brighter than necessary. Turn the
image off by selecting another view
on the instrument cluster.
Warm objects, such as pedestrians,
animals, and other moving vehicles,
should appear whiter on the Night
Vision display. Cold objects, such as
the sky, signs, and parked vehicles,
should appear darker. Night Vision
only shows objects that are warmer
or colder than the surroundings.
It does not detect brake lamps, turn
signals, emergency flashers, traffic
lights, or sign information.

Driving and Operating 247LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
The LCA sensor covers a zone of
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5 m
(11 ft). The height of the zone is
approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft)
and 2 m (6 ft) off the ground. The
Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
warning area starts at approximately
the middle of the vehicle and goes
back 5 m (16 ft). Drivers are also
warned of vehicles rapidly
approaching from up to 70 m (230 ft)
behind the vehicle. How the System Works The LCA symbol lights up in the
side mirrors when the system
detects a moving vehicle in the next
lane over that is in the side blind
zone or rapidly approaching that
zone from behind. A lit LCA symbol
indicates it may be unsafe to
change lanes. Before making a lane
change, check the LCA display,
check mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and use the turn signals.
Left Side Mirror
Display Right Side Mirror
Display
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror LCA displays will
briefly come on to indicate the
system is operating. When the
vehicle is in a forward gear, the left
or right side mirror display will light
up if a moving vehicle is detected in
the next lane over in that blind zone
or rapidly approaching that zone. If the turn signal is activated in the
same direction as a detected
vehicle, this display will flash as an
extra warning not to change lanes.
LCA can be disabled through
vehicle personalization using the
Side Blind Zone Alert option. See
“ Collision/Detection Systems ” under
Vehicle Personalization 0 157 .
If LCA is disabled by the driver, the
LCA mirror displays will not light up.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly The LCA system requires some
driving for the system to calibrate to
maximum performance. This
calibration may occur more quickly if
the vehicle is driving on a straight
highway road with traffic and
roadside objects (e.g., guardrails,
barriers).
LCA displays may not come on
when passing a vehicle quickly, for
a stopped vehicle, or when towing a
trailer. The LCA detection zones
that extend back from the side of
the vehicle do not move further back
when a trailer is towed. Use caution
while changing lanes when towing a
