Introduction
BLIS is an information system that indicates
the presence of another vehicle moving in the
same direction as your vehicle on roads with
several lanes. The system helps provide infor-
mation about:
•
Other vehicles in your door mirrors' "blind
area"
•
Vehicles that are about to pass your vehi-
cle in the left and/or right lanes
•
Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supple-
mentary BLIS function intended to
detect vehicles crossing behind your
vehicle while you are backing up.
WARNING
•
BLIS and CTA are information sys-
tems, NOT warning or safety systems
and do not function in all situations.
•
BLIS and CTA do not eliminate the
need for you to visually confirm the
conditions around you, and the need
for you to turn your head and should-
ers to make sure that you can safely
change lanes or back up.
•
As the driver, you have full responsibil-
ity for changing lanes/backing up in a
safe manner.

NOTE
The door panel indicator light illuminates
on the side of the vehicle where the sys-
tem has detected another vehicle. If your
vehicle is passed on both sides at the
same time, both lights will illuminate.
BLIS and CTA are activated when the engine
is started; this is confirmed when the indica-
tor lights on the front door panels flash once.
