How the System Works
Left Side Mirror
Display
When the vehicle is started, both outside mirror displays
will briefly come on to indicate that the system is
operating. When you are driving forward, the left or
right side mirror SBZA display will light up if a vehicle
is detected in that blind zone. If you activate a turn
signal and a vehicle has been detected on the same
side, the SBZA display will flash to give you extra
warning not to change lanes.
SBZA displays do not come on while your vehicle is
approaching or passing other vehicles.
I
(SBZA): To turn SBZA on and off, press the CONFIG
hard key. Press the symbol screen button to turn it on
and off. The symbol will be highlighted when the feature
is active. If SBZA is disabled by the driver, the SBZA
mirror displays will not light up.

When the System Does Not Seem
To Work Properly
If the SBZA displays do not light up when the system
is on and vehicles are in the blind zone, the system
needs service. Take your vehicle to your dealer/retailer.
SBZA displays may occasionally light up due to guard
rails, signs, trees, shrubs, and other stationary objects.
This is normal system operation, your vehicle does
not need service.
SBZA does not operate when the left or right corners
of the rear bumper are covered with mud, dirt, snow, ice,
or slush. For cleaning instructions, see "Washing Your
Vehicle" in the Index of your vehicle's owner manual.
If the DIC still displays the CLEAN SIDE BLIND ZONE
ALERT SYSTEM message after cleaning the bumper,
see your dealer/retailer.
The SBZA displays may remain on if a trailer is attached
to your vehicle, or a bicycle or object is extending out
to either side of the vehicle.
When SBZA is disabled without the driver turning it
off and the driver attempts to turn SBZA back on
using the DIC, the SIDE ALERT ON option will not
be selectable if the necessary conditions for normal
system operation are not met.
