BLIS*
The BLIS
81
function is designed to help pro-
vide assistance in heavy traffic with several
lanes moving in the same direction by helping
the driver to detect the presence of vehicles
in the "blind spot" area behind and to the side
of the vehicle.
Location of BLIS indicator light
BLIS is a driver support system designed to
alert the driver of:
vehicles in your "blind spot"
•
vehicles approaching rapidly in adjacent
•
lanes.
BLIS overview
Blind spot zone
Rapidly approaching vehicle zone
The system is designed to react to:
vehicles passing your vehicle
•
vehicles that are rapidly approaching your
•
vehicle from behind.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or a
rapidly approaching vehicle in zone 2, an indi-
cator light will illuminate in the relevant rear-
view mirror and glow steadily. If the driver
then uses the turn signal on the side in which
the warning has been given, the indicator light
will become brighter and begin flashing.
BLIS is active when your vehicle is traveling at
a speed over 10 km/h (6 mph).
* Option/accessory.
