BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Blind spot information system turns on when
all the following occur:
•
You start your vehicle.
• You shift into drive (D).
• The vehicle speed is greater than 6 mph
(10 km/h).
SWITCHING BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM ON AND
OFF
To switch blind spot information system on
or off, use the touchscreen:
1. Press
Features on the touchscreen.
2. Press
Driver Assistance.
3. Press
Blind Spot Information System.
4. Switch the feature on or off. When you switch blind spot information
system off, a warning lamp illuminates and
a message displays. When you switch the
system on or off, the alert indicators flash
twice.
Note:
The system remembers the last setting
when you start your vehicle.
To permanently switch the system off,
contact an authorized dealer.
LOCATING THE BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM SENSORS The sensors are behind the rear fascia on
both sides of your vehicle.
Note:
Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt. Note:
Do not cover the sensors with bumper
stickers, repair compound or other objects.
Note: Bike and cargo racks could cause
false alerts due to obstruction of the sensor.
We recommend switching the feature off
when using a bike or cargo rack.
Note: Blocked sensors may affect system
accuracy.
If the sensors become blocked, a message
appears in the instrument cluster display.
See
Blind Spot Information System –
Information Messages (page 315). The alert
indicators illuminate but the system does not
alert you.

SYSTEM INDICATORS When blind spot information
system detects a vehicle, an alert
indicator illuminates in the exterior
mirror on the side the approaching vehicle
is coming from. If you turn the turn signal on
for that side of your vehicle, the alert
indicator flashes.

WHAT IS CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
The system alerts you of vehicles
approaching from the sides behind your
vehicle when you shift into reverse (R).
HOW DOES CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT WORK
Cross traffic alert detects vehicles that
approach at a speed between 4–37 mph
(6–60 km/h). Coverage decreases when the
sensors are partially, mostly or fully
obstructed. The sensor on the left-hand side is only
partially obstructed and zone coverage on
the right-hand side is maximized. Zone coverage also decreases when parking
at narrow angles. The sensor on the left-hand
side is mostly obstructed and zone coverage
on that side is severely reduced.
Note:
Slowly reversing helps increase the
coverage area and effectiveness. CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
PRECAUTIONS WARNING:
Do not use the cross
traffic alert system as a replacement for
using the interior and exterior mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before
reversing out of a parking space. The cross
traffic alert system is not a replacement for
careful driving. WARNING:
The system may not
operate properly during severe weather
conditions, for example snow, ice, heavy
rain and spray. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash.

CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
LIMITATIONS
The system may not correctly operate when
any of the following occur:
•
Something is blocking the sensors.
• Adjacently parked vehicles or objects are
obstructing the sensors.
• Vehicles approach at speeds less than
4 mph (6 km/h) or greater than 37 mph
(60 km/h).
• Your vehicle speed is greater than 7 mph
(12 km/h)
.
• You reverse out of an angled parking
space. Cross Traffic Alert Limitations with a
Trailer Attached
The system remains on when you attach a
trailer in vehicles with blind spot information
system with trailer tow under the following
conditions:
•
You connect a trailer.
• The trailer is a bike rack or cargo rack
with a maximum length of
3 ft (1 m).
• You set the trailer length to
3 ft (1 m) in
the instrument cluster display.
Note: The system may not correctly operate
when towing a trailer. For vehicles with an
approved trailer tow module and tow bar,
the system turns off when you attach a
trailer. For vehicles with an aftermarket
trailer tow module or tow bar, we
recommend that you switch the system off
when you attach a trailer.
SWITCHING CROSS TRAFFIC

We recommend switching the feature off
when using a bike or cargo rack. CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
INDICATORS When the cross traffic alert detects
an approaching vehicle, a tone
sounds, a warning lamp illuminates
in the relevant exterior mirror and arrows
appear in the information display to show
which side the vehicle is approaching from. If the system malfunctions, a warning lamp
illuminates in the instrument cluster and a
message appears in the information display.
Have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
Note:
If arrows do not display, a message
appears in the information display.
Note: In some conditions, the system could
alert you, even when there is nothing in the
detection zone, for example a vehicle
passing further away from your vehicle.

WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during cold
and severe weather conditions. Snow, ice,
rain, spray and fog can adversely affect the
system. Keep the front camera and radar
free of snow and ice. Failure to take care
may result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, serious personal injury or death. WARNING:
Take additional care if
your vehicle is heavily loaded or you are
towing a trailer. These conditions could
result in reduced performance of this
system. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
The system cannot help
prevent all crashes. Do not rely on this
system to replace driver judgment and the
need to maintain a safe distance and
speed. WARNING:
In situations where the
vehicle camera has limited detection
capability, this may reduce system
performance. These situations include but
are not limited to direct or low sunlight,
vehicles at night without tail lights,
unconventional vehicle types, pedestrians
with complex backgrounds, running
pedestrians, partly obscured pedestrians,
or pedestrians that the system cannot
distinguish from a group. Failure to take
care may result in the loss of control of
your vehicle, serious personal injury or
death.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on the detection
ability of its camera and sensors. Any
obstructions or damage to these areas can
limit detection or prevent the system from
functioning.
See Locating the Pre-Collision
Assist Sensors (page 323). The system is active at speeds above 3 mph
(5 km/h)
.
Note: The pre-collision assist system
automatically disables when you select
four-wheel drive low or manually disable
AdvanceTrac ™.
Note: Brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active at speeds up
to
80 mph (130 km/h). If your vehicle has a
radar sensor included with adaptive cruise
control, then brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active up to the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speeds up
to
50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection operates optimally
when detected hazards are clearly
identifiable. System performance may reduce
in situations where pedestrians are running,
partly obscured, have a complex
background, or cannot be distinguished from
a group.

Cyclist Detection Limitations
Cyclist detection is active at speeds up to
50 mph (80 km/h).
Cyclist detection functions optimally when
detected hazards are clearly identifiable.
System performance may reduce in
situations where cyclists are fast-moving,
partly obscured, have a complex
background, or cannot be distinguished from
a group.
Intersection Assist
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle comes with a radar sensor
included in adaptive cruise control, the
pre-collision assist system may operate in a
scenario where you are turning across an
oncoming vehicle's path. Detection of
vehicles driving in an oncoming direction is
active if your vehicle is driving at speeds up
to
19 mph (30 km/h). SWITCHING PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST ON AND OFF
You cannot switch the system off.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist
Settings
You can adjust the following settings by
using the touchscreen controls in the
pre-collision assist menu:
•
Change alert and distance alert sensitivity
to one of three possible settings.
• Switch distance indication and alert on
or off.
• If required, switch automatic emergency
braking on or off.
• If required, switch evasive steering assist
on or off.
Note: Automatic emergency braking and
evasive steering automatically turns on every
time you switch the ignition on.
Note: If you switch automatic emergency
braking off, evasive steering assist switches
off.
