WHAT IS CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT
The system is designed to alert you of
vehicles approaching from the sides behind
your vehicle when you shift into reverse
(R).
HOW DOES CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT WORK
The system is designed to detect vehicles
that approach at a speed between 4 mph
(6 km/h) and 37 mph (60 km/h). Coverage
decreases when the sensors are partially,
mostly or fully obstructed. Slowly reversing
helps increase the coverage area and
effectiveness.
The system turns on when you start the
engine and you shift into reverse (R). The
system turns off when you shift out of
reverse (R).
E142440
The sensor on the left-hand side is only
partially obstructed and zone coverage on
the right-hand side is maximized.
E142441
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.
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.

The system may not correctly operate
when any of the following occur:
•
The sensors are blocked.
•
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).
•
The vehicle speed is greater than 7 mph
