When the vehicle is started, the BSM
warning light will momentarily illu-
minate in both outside rear view mir-
rors to let the driver know that the
system is operational. The BSM sys-
tem sensors operate when the vehicle
is in any forward gear or REVERSE
and enters stand-by mode when the
vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers ap-
proximately one lane on both sides of
the vehicle or 3.8 m. The zone starts
at the outside rear view mirror and
extends approximately 7 m to the rear
of the vehicle. The BSM system moni-
tors the detection zones on both sides
of the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 10 km/h or
higher and will alert the driver of ve-
hicles in these areas.NOTE:
The BSM system does NOT alert
the driver about rapidly ap-
proaching vehicles that are out-
side the detection zones.
The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your ve-
hicle is towing a trailer. There-
fore, visually verify the adjacent
lane is clear for both your ve-
hicle and trailer before making
a lane change. If the trailer or
other object (i.e., bicycle, sports
equipment) extends beyond the
side of your vehicle, this may re-
sult in the BSM warning light
remaining illuminated the en-
tire time the vehicle is in a for-
ward gear.
The area on the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located must remain
free of snow, ice, and dirt/road con-
tamination so that the BSM system
can function properly. Do not block
the area of the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located with foreign
objects (bumper stickers, bicycle
racks, etc.). The BSM system notifies the driver of
objects in the detection zones by illu-
minating the BSM warning light lo-
cated in the outside mirrors in addi-
tion to sounding an audible (chime)
alert and reducing the radio volume.
Refer to “Modes Of Operation” for
further information.
The BSM system monitors the detec-
tion zone from three different entry
points (side, rear, front) while driving

WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system
is only an aid to help detect objects
in the blind spot zones. The BSM
system is not designed to detect pe-
destrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped
with the BSM system, always check
your vehicle's mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use your turn
signal before changing lanes. Fail-
ure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
REAR CROSS PATH (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is
intended to aid the driver when back-
ing out of parking spaces where their
vision of oncoming vehicles may be
blocked. Proceed slowly and cautiously
out of the parking space until the rear
end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP
system will then have a clear view of
the cross traffic and if an oncoming
vehicle is detected, alert the driver.
RCP monitors the rear detection
zones on both sides of the vehicle, for
objects that are moving toward the
side of the vehicle with a minimum
speed of approximately 5 km/h, to
objects moving a maximum of ap-
proximately 32 km/h, such as in
parking lot situations.
NOTE: In a parking lot situation,
oncoming vehicles can be ob-
scured by vehicles parked on ei-
ther side. If the sensors are
blocked by other structures or ve-
hicles, the system will not be able
to alert the driver.
When RCP is on and the vehicle is in
REVERSE, the driver is alerted using
both the visual and audible alarms,
including reducing the radio volume.

WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It
is intended to be used to help a
driver detect an oncoming vehicle
in a parking lot situation. Drivers
must be careful when backing up,
even when using RCP. Always
check carefully behind your ve-
hicle, look behind you, and be sure
to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and
blind spots before backing up. Fail-
ure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
MODES OF OPERATION
Modes Of Operation With EVIC
Three selectable modes of operation
are available in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC). Refer to
“Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your In-
strument Panel” for further informa-
tion.Modes Of Operation With
Uconnect® System — (for
versions/markets, where pro-
vided)
Three selectable modes of operation
are available in the Uconnect® sys-
tem screen. Refer to “Customer- Pro-
grammable Features — Uconnect®
Access settings ” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” 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 ob-
ject. However, when the system is op-
erating in RCP, the system will re-
spond with both visual and audible
alerts when a detected object is pres-
ent. Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested, the radio volume is reduced.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system
will provide a visual alert in the ap-
propriate side view mirror based on adetected 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 audio alerts will be issued.
In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) volume will be reduced.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested by the BSM system, the
radio volume is reduced.
If the hazard flashers are on, the system will request the appropriate
visual alert only.
When the system is in RCP, the system
shall respond with both visual and
audible alerts when a detected object
is present. Whenever an audible alert
is requested, the radio volume is re-
duced. Turn/hazard signal status is
ignored; the RCP state always re-
quests the chime.
88
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 previ-
ously stored mode will be recalled
and used

OPERATION
Voice commands can be used to oper-
ate the Uconnect® Phone and to navi-
gate through the Uconnect® Phone
menu structure. Voice commands are
required after most Uconnect® Phone
prompts. You will be prompted for a
specific command and then guided
through the available options. Prior to giving a voice command,
one must wait for the beep, which
follows the “Ready” prompt or an-
other prompt.
For certain operations, compound commands can be used. For ex-
ample, instead of saying “Setup”
and then “Phone Pairing”, the fol-
lowing compound command can be
said: “Setup Phone Pairing”.
For each feature explanation in this section, only the compound form of
the voice command is given. You
can also break the commands into
parts and say each part of the com-
mand when you are asked for it.
For example, you can use the com-
pound form voice command
“Phonebook New Entry”, or you
can break the compound form
command into two voice com-
mands: “Phonebook” and “New
Entry”. Please remember, the
Uconnect® Phone works best when
you talk in a normal conversational
tone, as if speaking to someone sit-
ting a few meters away from you.
