including zero mph. BLIS
威
is also active if the transmission is placed in N
(Neutral). If the transmission is shifted out of D (Drive) or N (Neutral)
the system will enter the CTA mode (see CTA operation below). Once
shifted back in to D (Drive) the BLIS
威
mode will activate once driven
above 3 mph (5 km/h).
The BLIS
威
will trigger the alert for vehicles that enter your blind zone
from the rear or merge in to the blind zone from the side. Vehicles that
you pass, or a vehicle that enters the blind zone from the front, will
trigger the alert only after the vehicle is present in the blind zone for
three seconds.
Note:
For vehicles that pass through the blind zone
quickly, typically less than two seconds, the BLIS
威
will not illuminate the
alert.
The BLIS
威
consists of two radar
sensors each located rearward of
the rear wheels hidden behind the
bumper fascia. Do not place any
type of bumper sticker in this area.
Note:
The BLIS
威
typically will not
detect parked vehicles, humans,
animals, or infrastructure (fences,
guard rails, trees, etc.). The BLIS
威
does not function when the transmission is in R (Reverse) or P (Park).
The BLIS
威
does not provide any additional warning when your turn
signal is activated.
BLIS
威
detection limitations:
Due to the nature of radar technology,
there may be certain instances where vehicles entering and exiting the
blind spot zones may not be detected. Below is a list of circumstances
that may cause non-detection:
•
Debris build-up on the rear quarter panel fascias
•
Certain maneuvering of vehicles entering and exiting the blind zone
•
Vehicles passing through the blind zone at very fast rates
•
Severe weather conditions
•
When several vehicles forming a convoy pass through the blind zone.
