LIMITATIONS
Sensor Limitations
WARNING: On rare occasions,detection issues can occur due to the roadinfrastructures, for example bridges,tunnels and safety barriers. In these cases,the system may brake late orunexpectedly. At all times, you areresponsible for controlling your vehicle,supervising the system and intervening, ifrequired.
WARNING: If the systemmalfunctions, have your vehicle checkedas soon as possible.
WARNING: Large contrasts in outsidelighting can limit sensor performance.
WARNING: The system only warnsof vehicles detected by the radar sensor.In some cases there may be no warningor a delayed warning. Apply the brakeswhen necessary. Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in personal injuryor death.
WARNING: The system may notdetect stationary or slow moving vehiclesbelow 6 mph (10 km/h).
WARNING: The system does notdetect pedestrians or objects in the road.
WARNING: The system does notdetect oncoming vehicles in the same lane.
WARNING: The system may notoperate properly if the sensor is blocked.Keep the windshield free from obstruction.

The lane keeping aid warning lamp or redlane marking in your instrument clusterdisplay indicate blind spot assist activation.In addition, the blind spot information systemalert indicator flashes on the exterior mirroron the same side as the detection. See BlindSpot Information System (page 311).
BLIND SPOT ASSIST WITH TRAILER
COVERAGE
WHAT IS BLIND SPOT ASSIST WITHTRAILER COVERAGE
Blind spot assist with trailer coverage is anextension of the lane keeping system.
It may help you identify adjacent vehiclesduring a lane change.
Blind spot assist provides a blind spotwarning and steering assistance to helpduring lane changes.
When attaching a trailer, ensure you haveproperly set up the trailer coverage settings.See Blind Spot Information System WithTrailer Coverage (page 313).
HOW DOES BLIND SPOT ASSIST WITHTRAILER COVERAGE WORK
Activate and deactivate the systemusing the lane keeping systembutton on the steering wheel.
During lane changes, the design of the blindspot assist feature detects vehicles in, orapproaching, your blind spot and providesa warning, plus steering assistance to directyour vehicle back into your lane.
If a supported trailer is connected, thefunction is reduced to only detecting vehicleson both sides of your vehicle and trailer,extending rearward from the exterior mirrorsto the end of your trailer. See Blind SpotInformation System With Trailer Coverage(page 313).
When active, this system functions with orwithout the use of direction indicators andhazard flashers.
You must keep your hands on the steeringwheel at all times.
BLIND SPOT ASSIST WITH TRAILERCOVERAGE LIMITATIONS
All system limitations present in the basiclane keeping system also apply to blind spotassist.
Blind spot assist does not function under thefollowing conditions:
•The system does not detect lanemarkings.
•One or both rear radar sensors becomeblocked or faulty.
•You have not configured the attachedtrailer correctly in the trailer tow menusor you attached an unsupported trailer.The system only supports certain trailershapes and dimensions.
Note:Blind spot assist with trailer coveragecould have reduced performance if any ofthe above limitations are present.
Blind spot assist may have difficulty detectinghazards under the following conditions:

•If a vehicle is approaching in an adjacentlane at a relative speed much higher thanyour vehicle.
•Bad weather conditions are present thatobstruct the sensors.
•Attaching bike or cargo racks couldcause false alerts due to obstruction ofthe sensor.

WHAT IS BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM
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.

BLIND SPOT INFORMATION SYSTEM
WITH TRAILER COVERAGE
WHAT IS BLIND SPOT INFORMATIONSYSTEM WITH TRAILER COVERAGE
Blind spot information system detectsvehicles that may have entered the blindspot zone. The detection area is on bothsides your vehicle and trailer, extendingrearward from the exterior mirrors to the endof your trailer.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION SYSTEMWITH TRAILER COVERAGELIMITATIONS
Trailer coverage only supports conventionaltrailers. The system turns off if you select afifth wheel trailer type.
Make sure the trailer width is less than orequal to 8.5 ft (2.6 m) and the length is lessthan 33 ft (10.1 m). If you input values higher,the system turns off.
Some trailers could cause a slight change insystem performance:
•Large box trailers could cause false alertsto occur when driving next toinfrastructures or near parked cars. Afalse alert could also occur while makinga 90-degree turn.
•Trailers that have a width greater than8.5 ft (2.6 m) at the front and have a totallength greater than 20 ft (6 m) couldcause delayed alerts when a vehicle ispassing at high speeds.
•Box trailers that have a width greater than8.5 ft (2.6 m) at the front could causeearly alerts when you pass a vehicle.
•Clam shell or v-nose box trailers with awidth greater than 8.5 ft (2.6 m) at thefront could cause delayed alerts when avehicle traveling the same speed as yourvehicle merges lanes.

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.

Note:Do not cover the sensors with bumperstickers, repair compound or other objects.
Note:Blocked sensors may affect systemaccuracy.
If something is blocking the sensors, amessage may appear in the informationdisplay when you shift into reverse (R).
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.
CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
INDICATORS
When the cross traffic alert detectsan approaching vehicle, a tonesounds, a warning lamp illuminatesin the relevant exterior mirror and arrowsappear in the information display to showwhich side the vehicle is approaching from.
If the system malfunctions, a warning lampilluminates in the instrument cluster and amessage appears in the instrument clusterdisplay. Have your vehicle checked as soonas possible.
Note:If arrows do not display, a messageappears in the instrument cluster display.
Note:In some conditions, the system couldalert you, even when there is nothing in thedetection zone, for example a vehiclepassing further away from your vehicle.
