BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM
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.

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 9.8 ft (3 m) 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 reverse (R).
Note: BLIS is not designed to prevent
contact with other vehicles or objects; or to
detect parked vehicles, people, animals or
infrastructure (for example, fences, guardrails
or trees). 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 drive
(D) or neutral (N). If shifted out of drive (D) or
neutral (N), the system enters cross traffic
alert mode. Once shifted back into drive (D),
BLIS turns back on when the vehicle is driven
above 5 mph (8 km/h).
Note: BLIS does not function in reverse (R)
or park (P) or provide any additional warning
when a turn signal is on.
Note: Cross traffic alert detects approaching
vehicles from up to 45.9 ft (14 m) away
though coverage decreases when the
sensors are blocked. Reversing slowly helps
increase the coverage area and
effectiveness.
