Blind Spot Information System - Ford KUGA Owner's Manual

The lane markings are color coded as
follows:
• Green: The system is ready to warn you
of any unintentional lane departure.
• Yellow: The system will automatically
apply a steering torque to align your
vehicle path and correct any
unintended lane drift.
• Red: Your vehicle is approaching or is
too close to the detected lane
boundary. The steering wheel will give
a vibration warning. Take immediate
safe action to reposition your vehicle.
Instances where a lane boundary may be
suppressed:
• Lane markings on the road may not be
detected by the sensor.
• You turn the direction indicator for that
side of your vehicle on.
• If you apply direct steering, accelerate
fast or brake hard.
• Your vehicle speed is outside the
operating limits.
• If there is an anti-lock brake or stability
control intervention.
• Narrow lane width.
Note: You can override the system at any
time during its operation by turning the
steering wheel.

Driving Aids
Do not use the system as a
replacement for using the mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before
changing lanes. You should only use the
system as an aid. It is not a replacement
for careful driving.
The system is a convenience feature that
assists you in detecting vehicles that may
have entered the blind spot zone (A). The
detection area is on both sides of your
vehicle extending rearward from the
exterior mirrors to approximately 10 feet
(3 meters) beyond the rear bumper. The
system is designed to alert you if other
vehicles enter the blind spot zone when
driving.
