Driving and Operating 245Use this system as an aid by
occasionally glancing at the image.
Do not stare at the image or use the
image under well-lit conditions.
{ WarningDo not stare at the image while
driving as this might cause
important objects ahead not to be
seen. You could crash, and you
or others could be injured.
When a pedestrian or large animal
is detected, an amber box displays
around the pedestrian or animal on
the Night Vision display and an
amber pedestrian icon,
~ , or animal
icon,
! , displays on the instrument
cluster. This pedestrian icon is also
shown on the Head-Up Display
(HUD). When the system detects
the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian much too quickly, the
amber box turns red, and a red
flashing icon,
~ , displays on the
HUD with rapid beeping or pulsing
of the Safety Alert Seat, if equipped. System pedestrian icons, beeps,
and (if equipped) Safety Alert Seat
pulses can be set to Off through
vehicle personalization by turning
off the Front Pedestrian Braking
system. See “ Front Pedestrian
Detection ” in “ Collision/Detection
Systems ” under Vehicle
Personalization 0 157 .
{ WarningThe Night Vision system does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It does not provide alerts unless it
detects a pedestrian or large
animal. The system may not
detect pedestrians, including
children, or animals:
.
If they are less than 25 m
(82 ft) away.
.
If they are not directly
ahead in the sensor
coverage area, fully visible,
standing upright, or part of a
group.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
If the pedestrian or animal is
moving too quickly through
the field of view, such as a
bicyclist.
.
If the pedestrian is wearing
certain types of clothing.
.
If headlamps are off, except
when parked.
.
If the outside temperature is
higher than 30 °C (86 °F).
.
Due to poor visibility,
including in heavy fog, rain,
or snow.
.
If the sensor is blocked by
dirt, snow, rain, or ice.
Be ready to take action and apply
the brakes. For more information,
see Defensive Driving 0 193 .
Keep the Night Vision sensor
clean and in good repair.

246 Driving and Operating Pedestrian detection may not be
available in high outside
temperatures. An amber icon,
* ,
displays. The system does not need
service.
In rain, snow, or fog the image may
not be clear and the direction of the
road ahead may not be seen. In
more severe weather conditions, the
image may be unclear and
unusable. The system does not
need service.
Keep the system sensor clean by
activating the windshield washer up
to five times when it is dark enough
for the system to operate. If the
Night Vision image still looks blurry,
use a soft wet cloth to gently clean
the sensor camera lens and dry
thoroughly. The sensor is behind the
front grille to the inside of the driver
side headlamp.
The camera must also be aligned to
work correctly. If the camera needs
adjustment, see your dealer. Do not
attempt to adjust the camera
yourself. Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA) If equipped, the SBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers with avoiding crashes that
occur with moving vehicles in the
side blind zone (or spot) areas.
When the vehicle is in a forward
gear, the left or right side mirror
display will light up if a moving
vehicle is detected in that blind
zone. If the turn signal is activated
and a vehicle is also detected on
the same side, the display will flash
as an extra warning not to change
lanes. Since this system is part of
the Lane Change Alert (LCA)
system, read the entire LCA section
before using this feature.
Lane Change Alert (LCA) If equipped, the LCA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers with avoiding lane change
crashes that occur with moving
vehicles in the side blind zone (or
spot) areas or with vehicles rapidly
approaching these areas from
behind. The LCA warning display will light up in the corresponding
outside side mirror and will flash if
the turn signal is on.
{ WarningLCA does not alert the driver to
vehicles outside of the system
detection zones, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or animals. It may not
provide alerts when changing
lanes under all driving conditions.
Failure to use proper care when
changing lanes may result in
injury, death, or vehicle damage.
Before making a lane change,
always check mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use the turn
signals.
