Reasons for messages being displayed

Heavy rainfall/snowfall

interferes with the

radar signals

No action required. The system automatically

resets to an unblocked state once the

rainfall/snowfall rate decreases or stops. Do

not use BLIS威 and/or CTA in these conditions.

System Limitations

The BLIS威 and CTA systems do have their limitations; situations such as

severe weather conditions or debris build-up on the sensor area may

limit vehicle detection.

The following are other situations that may limit the BLIS威:

• 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 CTA system:

• 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 the vehicle has a factory equipped tow bar, and it is towing a

trailer, the sensors will detect the trailer and turn the BLIS off to avoid

false alerts. For non-factory equipped tow bars you may want to turn the

BLIS off manually.

There may be certain instances when either the BLIS威 or CTA 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 either system senses a problem with the left or right sensor, the BLIS威

indicator in the information display will illuminate and remain on. Also,

BLIND SPOT SYSTEM FAULT or CROSS TRAFFIC SYSTEM

FAULT message will appear. When problems that may cause the left or

right indicator not to illuminate, only the information display message

faults appear.
