Using the Systems
BLIS turns on when the engine is
started and the vehicle 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.
WARNING
To help avoid personal injury,
NEVER use the cross traffic alert
system as a replacement for using the
interior and exterior mirrors and
looking over your shoulder before
backing out of a parking space. Cross
traffic alert is not a replacement for
careful driving and only an assist.

In this first example, the left sensor is
only partially obstructed; zone
coverage is nearly maximized.
