lane change, always check
mirrors, glance over your
shoulder and use the turn signals.
SBZA Detection Zones
The SBZA sensor covers a zone of
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5 m.
This zone starts at each side mirror
and goes back approximately 5 m.
The height of the zone is
approximately between 0.5 m and
2 m off the ground.
Use caution while changing lanes
when towing a trailer, as the SBZA
detection zones that extend back
from the side of the vehicle do not
move further back when a trailer is
towed.
How the System Works
The SBZA symbol lights up in the
side mirrors when the system
detects a vehicle in the side blind
zone, indicating it may be unsafe to
change lanes. Before making a lane
change, check the SBZA display,
check mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and use the turn signals.

Driving and Operating
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror SBZA displays will
briefly come on to indicate the
system is operating. When the
vehicle is moving forward, the left-
or right-side mirror display will light
up if a vehicle is detected in that
blind zone. If the turn signal is
activated and a vehicle is also
detected on the same side, the
display will flash as an extra
warning not to change lanes.
SBZA displays may come on when
a passed vehicle remains in or
drops back into the detection zone.
SBZA can be disabled through
vehicle personalisation. See
Collision Detection Systems under
Vehicle Personalisation on
page 5-31. If SBZA is disabled by
the driver, the SBZA mirror displays
will not light up.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
