316 STARTING AND OPERATING
The "Brake Control Front Radar Sensor Temporarily
Blocked" message can sometimes be displayed while
driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflec-
tive tiles, or ice and snow). The system will recover after
the vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions,
when the radar is not tracking any vehicles or objects in
its path this warning may temporarily occur.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should
examine the sensor. It may require cleaning or removal of
an obstruction. The sensor is located behind the lower
grille. In absence of visible obstructions on the bumper, it
could be necessary to wipe off the radar directly on the
surface, after having the radar cover removed. It's rec-
ommended that your authorized dealer perform's this
operation.
NOTE:
• If the "Brake Control Front Radar Sensor Temporarily
Blocked" message occurs frequently (e.g. more than
once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or
other obstruction, have the radar sensor realigned at
your authorized dealer.
• Installing a snow plow, front-end protector, an after-
market grille or modifying the grille is not recom-
mended. Doing so may block the sensor and inhibit
Brake Control operation.
