BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not use the blind spot information
system as a replacement for using
the interior and exterior mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before changing
lanes. The blind spot information system
is not a replacement for careful driving.
The system may not operate
properly during severe weather
conditions, for example snow, ice,
heavy rain and spray. Always drive with
due care and attention. Failure to take care
may result in a crash.

Blind spot zoneA
Extended blind spot zoneB
The system is designed to aid you in
detecting vehicles that may have entered
the blind spot zone.
• Blind spot zone (A) : Detects slower
approaching vehicles from the exterior
mirrors to approximately 16 ft (5 m)
beyond the bumper.
• Extended blind spot zone (B) : Detects
faster approaching vehicles from the
exterior mirrors to approximately 59 ft
(18 m) beyond the bumper.
Note: The system does not prevent contact
with other vehicles or objects, and does not
detect parked vehicles, people, animals or
infrastructure (for example, fences,
guardrails or trees). It is only designed to
alert you to certain moving vehicles in the
blind spot zones.
Note: When a vehicle passes quickly
through the blind spot zone, typically fewer
than two seconds, the system does not
trigger.
Using the System
The system turns on when you start the
engine and you drive your vehicle forward
above 5 mph (8 km/h).
For automatic transmissions, the system
remains on while the transmission is in
drive (D). If shifted into reverse (R) or park
(P) the system turns off. Once shifted back
into drive (D), the system turns back on
when you drive your vehicle above 5 mph
(8 km/h).
For manual transmissions, the system is
on for all gears except reverse (R).
Note: For automatic transmissions, the
system does not function in reverse (R) or
park (P).
Note: The extended blind spot zone is
active at speeds above 30 mph (48 km/h).
