Side Blind Zone Alert
Your vehicle may have a Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
system. Read this entire section before using the system.
{
CAUTION:
The Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) system does
not detect vehicles outside the side blind zones,
which may be rapidly approaching. SBZA is not
designed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or
animals. SBZA is only a lane change aid. If you
do not use proper care before changing lanes,
vehicle damage, injury, or death could occur.
Even with SBZA, always check your vehicle’s
mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and start
your turn signal before changing lanes.
The SBZA system is an aid that may help you avoid
lane change crashes with vehicles in your side
blind spots (zones). When the system detects a
vehicle in the side blind zone, amber SBZA displays
will light up in your side mirrors. This indicates
that it may be unsafe for you to change lanes.
Before making a lane change, always check the
SBZA display, check the outside and rearview mirrors,
look over your shoulder for vehicles and hazards,
and start the turn signal.
SBZA Detection Zones
The SBZA sensor covers a zone of approximately one
lane over from both sides of the vehicle, 11 ft. or 3.5 m.
This zone starts at each side mirror and goes back
approximately 16 ft. (5.0 m). The height of the zone is
approximately between 1.5 ft. (0.5 m) and 6 ft. (2.0 m)
off the ground.
The SBZA detection zones do not change if your vehicle
is towing a trailer. So be extra careful when changing
lanes while towing a trailer.
