Reasons for messages being displayed

Clean the fascia area in

front of the radar or remove

the obstruction.

The radar

surface is

dirty or

obstructed

Drive normally in traffic for

a few minutes to allow the

radar to detect passing

vehicles so it can clear the

blocked state.

The radar

surface is

not dirty or

obstructed

No action required. The

system automatically

resets to an unblocked

state once the rainfall or

snowfall rate decreases or

stops. Do not use BLIS or

cross traffic alert in these

conditions.

System Limitations

The BLIS and cross traffic alert 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:

• 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 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 5 mph (8

km/h).

• Backing out of an angled parking spot.

False Alerts

Note: If a trailer is connected to the vehicle

the BLIS system may detect the trailer

causing a false alert. You may want to turn

the BLIS off manually.

There may be certain instances when

either the BLIS 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 either system senses a problem with the

left or right sensor, the BLIS telltale will

illuminate and a message will appear in

the information display.

All other system faults will only be

displayed by a message in the information

display.

Switching the Systems Off and On

One or both systems can be switched off

temporarily by using the information

display control. See General Information

(page 88). When the BLIS is switched off,

you will not receive alerts and a telltale

illuminates in the information display.

Note: The CTA system always switches on

whenever the ignition is switched on.

However, the BLIS system will remember

the last selected on or off setting.

One or both systems cannot be switched

off when MyKey is used. See Principle of

Operation (page 50).
