Driving and Operating
Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA)
If equipped, the SBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers with avoiding crashes that
occur with moving vehicles in the
side blind spot areas.
When the vehicle is in a forward
gear, a symbol will display in the left
or right side mirror when a moving
vehicle is detected in the blind spot
on the corresponding side of the
vehicle.
If the turn signal is activated and a
vehicle is also detected on the same
side, the display will flash as an
extra warning not to change lanes.
Since this system is part of the Lane
Change Alert (LCA) system, read
the entire LCA section before using
this feature.
Lane Change Alert (LCA)
If equipped, the LCA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers avoid lane change crashes
that occur with moving vehicles in
the side blind spot areas, or with
vehicles rapidly approaching these
areas from behind.
The LCA warning will light up in the
corresponding outside side mirror
and will flash if the turn signal is on.

Warning
The LCA does not alert the driver
to vehicles outside of the system
detection zones, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or animals. It may not
provide alerts when changing
lanes under all driving conditions.
Failure to use proper care when
changing lanes may result in
injury, death, or vehicle damage.
Before making a lane change,
always check mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use the turn
signals.
LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
The detection zones cover an area
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5 m.
The height of the zone is
approximately 0.5 m and 2 m from
the ground.
The detection zones start at
approximately the middle of the
vehicle, and for SZBA goes back
5 m. The LCA detection zone warns
the driver of vehicles rapidly
approaching from up to 25 m behind
the vehicle.
