Side blind spot alert does not
replace driver vision.
The system does not detect:
■ Vehicles outside the side blind
zones which may be rapidly
approaching.
■ Pedestrians, cyclists or animals.

the relevant exterior mirror. If the
driver then activates the turn signal,
the warning symbol

starts flashing
amber as a warning not to change
lanes.
Side blind spot alert is active from
speeds of 6 mph up to 87 mph.
Driving faster than 87 mph
