Note:
The sensors may not detect
objects with surfaces that absorb
ultrasonic waves.
The system detects an available
parallel parking space and
automatically steers the vehicle into
the space (hands-free) while you
control the accelerator, gearshift and
brakes. The system visually and
audibly instructs you to park the
vehicle.
The system may not function correctly
if something passes between the front
bumper and the parking space (i.e. a
pedestrian or cyclist) or if the edge of
the neighboring parked vehicle is high
from the ground (i.e. a bus, tow truck
or flatbed truck).
The system should not be used if:
• a foreign object (i.e. bike rack or
trailer) is attached to the front or
rear of the vehicle or at another
location close to the sensors.
• an overhanging object (i.e.
surfboard) is attached to the roof. •
the front bumper or side sensors
are damaged (i.e. in a collision) or
obstructed by a foreign object (i.e.
front bumper cover).
• a mini-spare tire is in use.
Using Active Park Assist Press the button located on
the right side of the center
stack.
The touch screen displays a message
and a corresponding graphic to
indicate it's searching for a parking
space. Use the turn signal to indicate
which side of the vehicle you want the
system to search on.
Note: If the turn signal is not on, the
system automatically searches on the
vehicle's passenger side. 202

•
the vehicle is in a dynamic
maneuver
• the road has no or poor lane
markings in the camera
field-of-view
• the camera is obscured or unable
to detect the lane markings due to
environmental conditions (e.g.
significant sun angles or shadows,
snow, heavy rain, fog), traffic
conditions (e.g. following a large
vehicle that is blocking or
shadowing the lane), or vehicle
conditions (e.g. poor headlamp
illumination).
See Troubleshooting for additional
information. Green: Indicates that the system is
available or ready to provide a
warning or intervention, on the
indicated side(s).
Yellow: Indicates that the system is
providing or has just provided a lane
keeping aid intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is
providing or has just provided a lane
keeping alert warning.
The system can be temporarily
suppressed at any time by the
following:
•
Quick braking
• Fast acceleration
• Using the turn signal indicator
• Evasive steering maneuver
Troubleshooting Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the
lane markings on the road?
Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature
Sun is shining directly into the camera lens
Quick intentional lane change
Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)

BLIND SPOT MONITOR
Blind Spot Information System
(BLIS®) with Cross Traffic
Alert (If Equipped)
WARNING
To help avoid injuries, NEVER use
the BLIS as a replacement for
using the interior and exterior mirrors
and looking over your shoulder before
changing lanes. BLIS is not a
replacement for careful driving and
only an assist. BLIS aids you in detecting vehicles
that may have entered the blind spot
zone (A). The detection area is on
both sides of the vehicle, extending
rearward from the exterior mirrors to
approximately 10 feet (3 meters)
beyond the bumper. The system alerts
you if certain vehicles enter the blind
spot zone while driving.
Cross traffic alert warns you of
vehicles approaching from the sides
when the transmission is in R
(Reverse). Note:
BLIS is not designed to prevent
contact with other vehicles or objects;
or to detect parked vehicles, people,
animals or infrastructure (fences,
guardrails, trees, etc.). It is designed to
alert the driver to vehicles in the blind
zones.
Note: When a vehicle passes quickly
through the blind zone, typically fewer
than two seconds, the system does not
trigger.
Using the Systems
BLIS turns on when the vehicle is
started and is driven forward above 5
mph (8 km/h); it remains on while the
transmission is in D (Drive) and N
(Neutral). If shifted out of D (Drive) or
N (Neutral), the system enters cross
traffic alert mode. Once shifted back
into D (Drive), BLIS turns back on
when the vehicle is driven above 5
mph (8 km/h).
Note: BLIS does not function in R
(Reverse) or P (Park) or provide any
additional warning when a turn signal
is on.
Note: Cross traffic alert detects
approaching vehicles from up to 45
feet (14 meters) away though coverage
decreases when the sensors are
blocked. Reversing slowly helps
increase the coverage area and
effectiveness.

Note:
It is possible to get a blockage
warning with no blockage present; this
is rare and known as a false blockage
warning. A false blocked condition
either self-corrects or clears after a key
cycle. The system uses radar sensors which
are located behind the bumper fascia
on each side of your vehicle. Do not
allow these areas to become
obstructed by mud, snow or bumper
stickers, as this can cause degraded
system performance.
If the system detects a degraded
performance condition, a message
warning of a blocked sensor or a
message warning of low visibility will
appear in the information display and
the alert indicator illuminates in the
appropriate mirror(s). The information
display warning can be cleared but
the alert indicator remains
illuminated.
When the blockage is removed, the
system can be reset in two ways:
•
when at least two objects are
detected while driving, or
• turn the ignition from on to off,
then back on. If the blockage is still present after the
key cycle, the system senses again
that it is blocked after driving in traffic. Reasons for messages being
displayed
Clean the fascia area in front of the radar or
remove the obstruction.
The radar
surface is dirty or
obstructed
Drive normally in trafficfor a few minutes to
allow the radar to detect
passing vehicles so it can clear the blocked state.
The radar
surface is not dirty or
obstructed
No action required. Thesystem automatically
resets to an unblocked
state once the rainfall or snowfall rate decreases
or stops. Do not use BLIS or cross traffic alert in these conditions.
Heavy
rainfall/
snowfall
interferes with the radar
signals
System Limitations
The BLIS and cross traffic alert
systems do have their limitations;
situations such as severe weather
conditions or debris build-up on the
sensor area may limit vehicle
detection.
