DRIVING AND OPERATING
(10 ft) to the trailing edge of the
vehicle and goes back up to 21 m
(69 ft) behind the vehicle. The
maximum trailer length is 12 m (39 ft).
How the System Works
The LCA/ESBZA symbol lights up in
the side mirrors when the system
detects a moving vehicle in the next
lane over that is in the extended side
blind zone. This indicates it may be
unsafe to change lanes. Before making
a lane change, check the SBZA
display, check mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use the turn
signals.
Left Side Mirror
Display
Right Side Mirror
Display
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror LCA/ESBZA displays
will briefly come on to indicate the
system is operating. When the vehicle
is in a forward gear, the left- or
right-side mirror display will light up
if a moving vehicle is detected in that
blind zone. If the turn signal is
activated in the same direction as a
detected vehicle, this display will flash
as an extra warning not to change
lanes.
LCA/ESBZA displays may not come on
when passing a vehicle quickly,
or when passing a stopped vehicle.
LCA/ESBZA may alert to objects
attached to the vehicle, such as a
bicycle, or object extending out to
either side of the vehicle or trailer.
This is normal system operation; the
vehicle does not need service.
LCA/ESBZA can be disabled through
vehicle personalization. See
“
Collision/
Detection Systems
”
under
. If SBZA is
disabled by the driver, the ESBZA
mirror displays will not light up.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
LCA/ESBZA displays may not come on
when passing a vehicle quickly,
or when passing a stopped vehicle.
The LCA/ESBZA detection zones that
extend back from the side of the
vehicle do not move further back
when a trailer is towed. Use caution
while changing lanes when towing a
trailer. LCA/ESBZA may alert to
objects attached to the vehicle, such
as a trailer, bicycle, or object
extending out to either side of the
vehicle or trailer. This is normal
system operation; the vehicle does not
need service.
LCA/ESBZA may not always alert the
driver to vehicles in the side blind
zone, especially in wet conditions. The
system does not need to be serviced.
The system may light up due to
guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and
other non-moving objects. This is
normal system operation; the vehicle
does not need service.
LCA/ESBZA may not operate when the
LCA/ESBZA sensors in the left or right
corners of the rear bumper are
covered with mud, dirt, snow, ice,
or slush, or in heavy rainstorms. For
cleaning instructions, see "Washing
