Driving and operating143Side blind spot alertThe Side blind spot alert system
detects and reports objects on either
side of the vehicle, within a specified
"blind spot" zone. The system alerts
visually in each exterior mirror, when
detecting objects that may not be
visible in the interior and exterior
mirrors.
Side blind spot alert uses some of the
advanced parking assist sensors
which are located in the front and rear bumper on both sides of the vehicle.9 Warning
Side blind spot alert does not
replace driver vision.
The system does not detect: ■ Vehicles outside the side blind zones which may be rapidly
approaching.
■ Pedestrians, cyclists or animals.
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn signal.
When the system detects a vehicle in the side blind zone while driving
forward, either while passing a
vehicle or being passed, an amber warning symbol B will light up in the
relevant exterior mirror. If the driver then activates the turn signal, the
warning symbol B starts flashing
amber as a warning not to change
lanes.
Side blind spot alert is active from
speeds of 6 mph up to 87 mph.
Driving faster than 87 mph deactives
the system, indicated by low lighting warning symbols B in both exterior
mirrors. Reducing the speed again
will extinguish the warning symbols. If a vehicle is then detected in the blindzone, the warning symbols B will
illuminate as normal on the relevant
side.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly
come on to indicate that the system is
operating.
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the Info-Display,
vehicle personalisation 3 98.
Deactivation is indicated by a
message in the Driver Information
Centre.
Detection zonesThe detection zones start at the rear
bumper and extend approx.
3 metres rearwards and to the sides. The height of the zone is approx.
between 0.5 metres and 2 metres off
the ground.
Side blind spot alert is designed to ignore stationary objects, e.g.
guardrails, posts, curbs, walls and
beams. Parked vehicles or oncoming
vehicles are not detected.
