Mode Of Operation
Three selectable modes of operation are available in the Uconnect Sys tem. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia in your Owner’s Manual on
www.fiatusa.com/en/owners/manuals for further information.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in
the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. However, when the system
is operating in Rear Cross Path (RCP) mode, t he system will respond with both visual
and audible alerts when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system will provide a
visual alert in the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. If the turn
signal is then activated, and it corresponds to an alert present on that side of the vehicle,
an audible chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected object are
present on the same side at the same time, both the visual and audible alerts will be is-
sued. In addition to the audible alert, the radio (if on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system will respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible alert is requested, the radio is
also muted. Turn/hazard signal status is ignored; the RCP state always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off, there will be no visual or audible alerts from either
the BSM or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current operating mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each
time the vehicle is started the previously stored mode will be recalled and used.
Blind Spot Monitoring Fault Warnings
Sensor Blinded
In the case of a sensor blinded:
BSM Mirror Warning Lights are turned on continuously.
An instrument cluster message will display “Blind Spot Monitoring Unavailable - Wipe
Rear Bumper Corners.
NOTE:
The rear bumper must be clean and free of any obstructing debris.
