BLIS* – introduction
The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) is an information system that indicates the presence of another vehicle moving in the same direction as your vehicle on roads with several lanes.
Indicator light
BLIS symbol
BLIS and CTA2 are activated when the engine is started; this is confirmed when the indicator lights on the front door panels flash once.
Note
The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system has detected another vehicle. If your vehicle is passed on both sides at the same time, both lights will illuminate.
The system helps provide information about:
- Other vehicles in your door mirrors' "blind area"
- Vehicles that are about to pass your vehicle in the left and/or right lanes
- Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supplementary BLIS function intended to detect vehicles crossing behind your vehicle while you are backing up.
Warning
- BLIS and CTA are information systems, NOT warning or safety systems and do not function in all situations.
- BLIS and CTA do not eliminate the need for you to visually confirm the conditions around you, and the need for you to turn your head and shoulders to make sure that you can safely change lanes or back up.
- As the driver, you have full responsibility for changing lanes/backing up in a safe manner.
