Driving Aids BLIND SPOT INFORMATION SYSTEM Blind Spot Information System (BLIS™) with Cross Traffic Alert (If Equipped) WARNING To help avoid personal injury, NEVER use the cross traffic alert system as a replacement for using the interior and exterior mirrors and looking over your shoulder before backing out of a parking space. Cross traffic alert is not a replacement for careful driving. Cross traffic alert warns you of vehicles approaching from the sides when the transmission is in reverse (R). Note: The Blind Spot Information System does not prevent contact with other vehicles or objects; nor does it detect parked vehicles, people, animals or infrastructure (fences, guardrails or trees). It only alerts you to vehicles in the blind zones. Note: When a vehicle passes quickly through the blind zone, typically fewer than two seconds, the system does not trigger. Using the Systems WARNING To help avoid injuries, NEVER use the Blind Spot Information System as a replacement for using the interior and exterior mirrors and looking over your shoulder before changing lanes. The Blind Spot Information System is not a replacement for careful driving. A A E124788 The Blind Spot Information System aids you in detecting vehicles that may have entered the blind spot zone (A). The detection area is on both sides of your vehicle, extending rearward from the exterior mirrors to approximately 10 ft (3 m) beyond the bumper. The system alerts you if certain vehicles enter the blind spot zone while driving. The Blind Spot Information System turns on when you start the engine and you drive your vehicle forward above 5 mph (8 km/h), it remains on while the transmission is in drive (D) or neutral (N). If shifted out of drive (D) or neutral (N), the system enters cross traffic alert mode. Once shifted back into drive (D), the Blind Spot Information System turns back on when you drive your vehicle above 5 mph (8 km/h). Note: The Blind Spot Information System does not function in reverse (R) or park (P). Note: Cross traffic alert detects approaching vehicles and bicycles from up to 46 ft (14 m) away though coverage decreases when the sensors are blocked. Reversing slowly helps increase the coverage area and effectiveness. 159 Mustang (), enUSA, First Printing
