Function

BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System)  
with Cross Traffic Alert

*

 

BLIS uses radar sensors to help you determine if a vehicle may be 
in your blind spot zone. The cross traffic alert feature warns you of 
vehicles approaching from the sides when the transmission is in 
reverse (R). BLIS and cross traffic alert will display a yellow indicator 
light in your exterior mirrors and the cross traffic alert will also sound 
tones and display messages to warn you which direction vehicles 
are approaching. Refer to the 

Driving Aids

 

chapter in your 

Owner’s 

Manual

 for more information.

Note:

 Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where 

the vehicle is moving. Refer to your 

Owner’s Manual

 for safety 

information, more details and system limitations.

Lane Keeping System

*

 

The system detects unintentional drifting toward the outside of 
the lane and alerts or aids the driver to stay in the lane through 
the steering system and instrument cluster display. The system 
automatically detects and tracks the road lane markings using a 
camera that is mounted behind the interior rearview mirror.

Rear View Camera

*

 

This system provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle. The display 
automatically appears in the touchscreen when the vehicle is in reverse (R) and 
uses green, yellow and red guides to alert you of your proximity to objects.

Forward and Reverse Sensing Systems 

This system sounds an audible warning tone if there is an obstacle near the 
vehicle’s front or rear bumpers. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the 
rate of the warning tone increases in frequency. The front sensors are automatically 
activated when the gearshift is in any position other than park (P) or neutral (N)  
and the vehicle speed is below 7 mph (12 km/h). The system detects certain objects 
while the transmission is in reverse (R) and will detect objects up to 6 feet  
(2 meters) away. See the 

Parking Aids

 chapter in your 

Owner’s Manual 

for 

complete information on your vehicle’s sensing systems.
