Zone coverage also decreases when
parking at shallow angles. Here, the
left sensor is mostly obstructed; zone
coverage on that side is severely
limited.
System Lights and Messages
The BLIS and cross traffic alert
systems illuminate a yellow alert
indicator in the outside mirror on the
side of the vehicle the approaching
vehicle is coming from. Note:
The alert indicator dims when
nighttime darkness is detected.
Cross traffic alert also sounds an
audible warning and a message
appears in the information display
indicating a vehicle is coming from the
right or left. Cross traffic alert works
with the reverse sensing system which
sounds its own series of tones. See
Parking Aid (page 199).
System Sensors WARNING
Just prior to the system
recognizing a blocked condition
and alerting the driver, the number of
missed objects will increase. To help
avoid injuries, NEVER use the BLIS as
a replacement for using the side and
rear view mirrors and looking over your
shoulder before changing lanes. BLIS
is not a replacement for careful driving
and only an assist. 227

GETTING ASSISTANCE
OUTSIDE THE U.S. AND
CANADA
Before exporting your vehicle to a
foreign country, contact the
appropriate foreign embassy or
consulate. These officials can inform
you of local vehicle registration
regulations and where to find
unleaded fuel.
If you cannot find unleaded fuel or can
only get fuel with an anti-knock index
lower than is recommended for your
vehicle, contact our Customer
Relationship Center.
The use of leaded fuel in your vehicle
without proper conversion may
damage the effectiveness of your
emission control system and may
cause engine knocking or serious
engine damage. Ford Motor Company
or Ford of Canada is not responsible
for any damage caused by use of
improper fuel. Using leaded fuel may
also result in difficulty importing your
vehicle back into the United States.
If your vehicle must be serviced while
you are traveling or living in
Asia-Pacific Region, Sub-Saharan
Africa, U.S. Virgin Islands, Central
America, the Caribbean, and Israel,
