BLIS* (Blind Spot Information System)
BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) is a
function designed for providing support for
the driver when driving in dense traffic on
roads with several lanes in the same direction.
BLIS is a driver's aid intended to provide a
warning about:
•
vehicles in the car's blind spot
•
rapidly approaching vehicles in the left
and right-hand lanes closest to the car.
The BLIS function CTA (p. 255) (Cross Traffic
Alert) is a driver's aid intended to provide a
warning about:
•
crossing traffic when the car is reversed.
WARNING
BLIS is a supplementary aid and does not
work in all situations.
BLIS is no substitute for a safe driving
style and the use of rearview and door mir-
rors.
BLIS can never replace the driver's
responsibility and attention - it is always
the driver's responsibility to change lanes
in a safe manner.
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
