Getting to Know Your Lucerne

Side Blind Zone Alert
(if equipped)
This feature uses a camera mounted on
the windshield near the inside rearview
mirror to detect lane markings and alert
the driver when the vehicle departs
from the lane. It operates only at
speeds greater than 35 mph (56 km/h).
This feature may
alert you to
vehicles located
in your side
blind zone.
When a vehicle is detected
in your blind zone, a
display will illuminate in
the corresponding outside mirror – right
or left side. If you activate the turn
signal while a vehicle is detected in your
blind zone, the display will flash.
The system is enabled at every vehicle
startup. It can be turned off through the
Vehicle Information button in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
If the system is not functioning
correctly, you may see a “SIDE BLIND
ZONE SYS. UNAVAILABLE” message
in the DIC, and the mirror displays will
light continuously. The sensors, located
behind the rear quarter panels, may be
blocked by mud, ice, snow or water.
Clean the rear quarter panels and/or the
sensors with water spray. This
message may also appear while driving
in open areas with no objects to detect.
You may choose to turn off the system
in the DIC until you are no longer in
wide open areas.
See Sections 2 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
The warning symbol, located in
the instrument panel cluster,
will appear green if a lane
marking is detected. It will change to
amber, flash and sound three chimes if
you cross a detected lane marking
without your turn signal on.
You can turn the system
on or off by pressing the
control located near the
headlamp control. An indicator
on the control will light when
the system is on. This system may not
function if the camera is obstructed, the
windshield is dirty or the camera cannot
distinguish visible lane markings. Snow
covered roads, bright reflections off
pavement or low sun angle into camera
lens are all conditions which may not
allow the system to function.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
This feature uses
ultrasonic sensors on
the rear bumpers to help
you avoid colliding with objects when
parking the vehicle. It operates only at
speeds less than 5 mph (8 km/h).
The rear parking assist display is located
near the rear window. The lights on the
display provide distance information. As
the vehicle approaches an object, the
number of lights illuminated increases.
Low-toned beeps also sound from the
rear speakers when objects are near the
rear bumper.
Be sure to keep the ultrasonic sensors on
the vehicle’s rear bumper clean to
ensure proper operation.
The system can be disabled using the
Driver Information Center.
