Outside Convex Mirror
{WARNING:
A convex mirror can make things, like other
vehicles, look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could
hit a vehicle on the right. Check the inside mirror
or glance over your shoulder before changing
lanes.
The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convexmirror's surface is curved so more can be seen from thedriver seat.

Object Detection Systems
Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
For vehicles with the Ultrasonic Rear ParkingAssist (URPA) system, it operates at speeds lessthan 8 km/h (5 mph), and assists the driver with parkingand avoiding objects while in R (Reverse). The sensorson the rear bumper are used to detect the distance toan object up to 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the vehicle, and atleast 25.4 cm (10 in) off the ground.
{WARNING:
The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
system does not replace driver vision.
It cannot detect:
.Objects that are below the bumper,
underneath the vehicle, or if they are too close
or far from the vehicle
.Children, pedestrians, bicyclists, or pets.
(Continued)
WARNING: (Continued)
If you do not use proper care before and while
backing; vehicle damage, injury, or death could
occur. Even with URPA, always check behind the
vehicle before backing up. While backing, be sure
to look for objects and check the vehicle's mirrors.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever ismoved into R (Reverse). A single tone sounds toindicate the system is working.
URPA operates only at speeds less than5 mph (8 km/h).
An obstacle is indicated by audible beeps. The intervalbetween the beeps becomes shorter as the vehicle getscloser to the obstacle. When the distance is less than30 cm (12 in) the beeps are continuous.
To be detected, objects must be at least 25.4 cm (10 in)off the ground and below liftgate level. Objects mustalso be within 2.5 m (8 ft) from the rear bumper. Thisdistance may be less during warmer or humid weather.

Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
The vehicle may have a Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)system. Read this entire section before using thesystem.
{WARNING:
SBZA is only a lane changing aid and does not
replace driver vision. SBZA does not detect:
.Vehicles outside the side blind zones which
may be rapidly approaching.
.Pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Failure to use proper care when changing lanes
may result in damage to the vehicle, injury,
or death. Always check the outside and rearview
mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use the
turn signal before changing lanes.
When the system detects a vehicle in the side blindzone, amber SBZA displays light up in the side mirrors.This indicates that it may be unsafe to change lanes.Before making a lane change, always check the SBZAdisplay, check the outside and rearview mirrors, lookover your shoulder for vehicles and hazards, and usethe turn signal.

SBZA Detection Zones
The SBZA sensor covers a zone of approximatelyone lane over from both sides of the vehicle,3.5 m (11 ft). This zone starts at each side mirror andgoes back approximately 16 ft. (5.0 m). The height ofthe zone is approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft) and2.0 m (6 ft) off the ground.
Use caution while changing lanes when towing a trailer,as the SBZA detection zones do not change when atrailer is towed.
How the System Works
Left Side Mirror DisplayRight Side Mirror Display
When the vehicle is started, both outside mirrordisplays will briefly come on to indicate that the systemis operating. When the vehicle is moving forward, theleft or right side mirror SBZA display will light up if avehicle is detected in that blind zone.
If the turn signal is activated and a vehicle is alsodetected on the same side, the SBZA display will flashto give you extra warning not to change lanes.
SBZA displays do not come on while the vehicle isapproaching or passing other vehicles. At speedsgreater then 32 km/h (20 mph), SBZA displays maycome on when a vehicle you have passed remains in ordrops back into the detection zone.
SBZA can be disabled through the Driver InformationCenter (DIC). SeeDriver Information Center (DIC)onpage 4!41for more information. If the SBZA is disabledby the driver, the SBZA mirror displays will not light upduring normal driving.
When the System Does Not Seem To Work
Properly
Occasional missed alerts can occur under normalcircumstances and will increase in wet conditions.The system does not need to be serviced due to anoccasional missed alert. The number of missed alertswill increase with increased rainfall or road spray.
If the SBZA displays do not light up when the system ison and vehicles are in the blind zone, the system mayneed service. Take the vehicle to your dealer/retailer.

IntelliBeam®Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
For vehicles with this feature, be sure to read thisentire section before using it.
IntelliBeam®is an enhancement to the vehicle'sheadlamp system. Using a digital light sensor on therearview mirror, this system will turn the vehicle'shigh-beam headlamps on and off according tosurrounding traffic conditions.
The IntelliBeam®system turns the high-beamheadlamps on when it is dark enough, there is no othertraffic present, and the IntelliBeam®system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntelliBeam®
Press and release the IntelliBeam®button on the insiderear view mirror. The IntelliBeam®indicator on themirror will turn on to let you know the system has beenturned on. Once the system has been turned on, it willremain on each time the vehicle is started. Additionally,the IntelliBeam®system must be enabled.
To enable the IntelliBeam®system, turn the exteriorlamp control to AUTO, with the turn signal/multifunctionlever in its neutral position. The High-Beam On Lightwill appear on the instrument panel cluster when thehigh-beams are on. SeeHighbeam On Lightonpage 4!40.
Driving with IntelliBeam®
IntelliBeam®will only activate your high-beams whendriving over 20 mph (32 km/h).
The high-beam headlamps will remain on, under theautomatic control of IntelliBeam®, until any of thefollowing situations occur:
.The system detects an approaching vehicle'sheadlamps.
.The system detects a preceding vehicle'staillamps.
.The outside light is bright enough that high-beamheadlamps are not required.
.The vehicle's speed drops below 15 mph(24 km/h).

Page 205 of 616

.The headlamp stalk is moved forward to thehigh-beam position. SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changero n p a g e 4!5.
When either of these conditions occur, theIntelliBeam®feature will be disabled and theIntelliBeam®light in the mirror will turn off until thehigh-beam stalk is returned to the neutral position.
.If IntelliBeam®was using low-beams prior to thisaction, the IntelliBeam®feature will be temporarilydisabled until the stalk is returned to the neutralposition.
.The exterior lamp control is turned to any settingexcept AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam®will be disableduntil the control is turned back to the AUTOposition.
.The IntelliBeam®system is turned off at the insiderearview mirror.
IntelliBeam®may not turn off the high-beams if thesystem cannot detect other vehicle's lamps because ofany of the following:
.The others vehicle's lamp(s) are missing,damaged, obstructed from view or otherwiseundetected.
.The other vehicle's lamp(s) are covered with dirt,snow and/or road spray.
.The other vehicle's lamp(s) cannot be detecteddue to dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, roadspray, mist or other airborne obstructions.
.Your vehicle's windshield is dirty, cracked orobstructed by something that blocks the view ofthe IntelliBeam light sensor.
.Your vehicle's windshield is covered with ice, dirt,haze or other obstructions.
.Your vehicle is loaded such that the front end ofthe vehicle points upward, causing the IntelliBeamsensor to aim high and not detect headlamps andtaillamps.
.You are driving on winding or hilly roads.
You may need to manually disable or cancel thehigh-beam headlamps by turning the low-beamheadlamps on, if any of the above conditions exist.
