Side Blind Zone Alert
(if equipped)
This feature uses a camera mounted on the
windshield near the inside rearview mirror to
detect lane markings and alert the driver when
the vehicle departs from the lane. It operates
only at speeds greater than 35 mph.
Lane Departure Warning
(if equipped)
This feature
may alert you
to vehicles
located
in your side
blind zone.
When a
vehicle is
detected in your blind
zone, a display will
illuminate in the
corresponding outside
mirror – right or left side.
If you activate the turn
signal while a vehicle is detected in your
blind zone, the display will flash.
The system is enabled at every vehicle
startup. It can be turned off through the
Vehicle Information button in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
If the system is not functioning correctly, you
may see a “CLEAN SIDE BLIND ZONE
ALERT SYSTEM” message in the DIC, and
the mirror displays will light continuously. The
sensors, located behind the rear quarter
panels, may be blocked by mud, ice, snow
or water. Clean the rear quarter panels
and/or the sensors with water spray. This
message may also appear while driving in
open areas with no objects to detect. You
may choose to turn off the system in the DIC
until you are no longer in wide open areas.
See Sections 2 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
The warning symbol, located in the
instrument panel cluster, will
appear green if a lane marking is
detected. It will change to amber,
flash and sound three chimes if you cross a
detected lane marking without your turn
signal on.
The system is enabled at
every vehicle startup.
You can turn it off by
pressing the control located
near the headlamp control.
An indicator on the control
will light when the system
is on. This system may not function if the
camera is obstructed, the windshield is dirty
or the camera cannot distinguish visible lane
markings. Snow covered roads, bright
reflections off pavement or low sun angle
into camera lens are all conditions which
may not allow the system to function.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
This feature uses four
ultrasonic sensors on the
rear bumpers to help you
avoid colliding with objects
when parking the vehicle.
It operates only at speeds less than 5 mph.
The rear parking assist display is located
near the rear window. The lights on the
display provide distance information. As the
vehicle approaches an object, the number of
lights illuminated increases. Low-toned
beeps also sound from the rear speakers
when objects are near the rear bumper.
Be sure to keep the ultrasonic sensors on
the vehicle’s rear bumper clean to ensure
proper operation.
The system can be disabled using the Driver
Information Center.
See Sections 2 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
