Blind Spot Information*
- vehicles in the car's blind spot
- quickly approaching vehicles in the left and right lanes closest to the car.
The BLIS function is active at speeds above 10 km/h (6 mph).
- the vehicle is overtaken by other vehicles
- another vehicle is quickly approaching the vehicle.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in Zone 1 or a quickly approaching vehicle in Zone 2, the indicator lamp on the door mirror on the affected side illuminates with a constant glow. If the driver activates the direction indicator on the same side as the warning, the indicator lamp will change over from a constant glow to flashing with a more intense light.
Note
Warning
Blind Spot Information does not work on sharp bends.
Blind Spot Information does not work when the car is reversing.
Warning
Blind Spot Information is a supplementary aid and does not work in all situations.
Blind Spot Information is no substitute for a safe driving style and the use of rearview and door mirrors.
Blind Spot Information can never replace responsibility and attention by the driver. It is always the driver’s responsibility to change lanes in a safe manner.
