CTA*
The BLIS function CTA (Cross Traffic Alert) is
a driver aid intended to warn about crossing
traffic when the car is reversing. CTA is a sup-
plement to BLIS (p. 256).
Activate/deactivate CTA
CTA is activated when the engine is started.
This is confirmed by the indicator lamps for
BLIS in the door panels flashing once.
On/Off for parking assistance and CTA sensors.
The CTA function can be deactivated/acti-
vated separately with the Parking assistance
(p. 244) On/Off button. The BLIS lamps flash
once on reactivation.
However, the BLIS function remains activated
after the CTA has been deactivated.
WARNING
CTA is a supplementary aid and does not
work in all situations.
CTA is no substitute for a safe driving style
and the use of rearview and door mirrors.
CTA can never replace the driver's respon-
sibility and attention - it is always the driv-
er's responsibility to reverse in a safe man-
ner.
When CTA operates
Principle for CTA.
CTA supplements the BLIS function by being
able to see crossing traffic from the side dur-
ing reversing, such as when reversing out of a
parking space.
CTA is primarily designed to detect vehicles.
In favourable conditions, it may also be able
to detect smaller objects, such as cyclists
and pedestrians.
