The following are other situations that may
limit the Blind Spot Information System:
• Certain maneuvering of vehicles entering
and exiting the blind zone.
• Vehicles passing through the blind zone
at very fast rates.
• When several vehicles forming a convoy
pass through the blind zone.
The following are other situations that may
limit the Cross Traffic Alert:
• Adjacently parked vehicles or objects
obstructing the sensors.
• Approaching vehicles passing at speeds
greater than 15 mph (24 km/h).
• Driving in reverse faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h).
• Backing out of an angled parking spot.
False Alerts
Note: If you connected a trailer to your
vehicle, the Blind Spot Information System
may detect the trailer causing a false alert.
To avoid false alerts you may want to turn
the system off manually.
There may be certain instances when either
the Blind Spot Information or Cross Traffic
Alert systems illuminate the alert indicator
with no vehicle in the coverage zone; this is
known as a false alert. Some amount of false
alerts are normal; they are temporary and
self-correct.
System Errors
If the system senses a problem with the left
or right sensor, the telltale will illuminate and
a message will appear in the information
display. See Information Messages (page
108).
Switching the System Off and On
One or both systems can be switched off
temporarily by using the information display
control; See Information Displays (page 102).
. When you switch off the Blind Spot
Information System, you will not receive
alerts and the information display will display
a system off message. The yellow alert
indicator in the outside mirror will also flash
twice. The system switches back on
whenever you switch the ignition on.
You can also have the Blind Spot Information
System switched off permanently at an
authorized dealer. Once switched off
permanently, the system can only be
switched back on at an authorized dealer.
STEERING
Electric Power Steering
WARNINGS
The electric power steering system has
diagnostic checks that continuously
monitor the system. If a fault is detected, a
message displays in the information display.
Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so. Switch the ignition off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the ignition on and watch
the information display for a steering system
warning message. If a steering system
warning message returns, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
