DRIVING AND OPERATING 211
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
SBZA displays may not come on when
passing a vehicle quickly, for a
stopped vehicle, or when towing a
trailer. The SBZA detection zones that
extend back from the side of the
vehicle do not move furth er back
when a trailer is towed. Use caution
while changing lanes when towing a
trailer. SBZA may alert to objects
attached to the vehicle, such as a
trailer, bicycle, or object extending out
to either side of the vehicle. This is
normal system operation; the vehicle
does not need ser vice.
SBZA may not always alert the driver
to vehicles in the side blind zone,
especially in wet conditions. The
system does not need to be serviced.
The system may light up due to
guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and
other non-moving objects. This is
normal system operation; the vehicle
does not need ser vice.
SBZA may not operate when the SBZA
sensors in the left or right corners of
the rear bumper are covered with
mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in
heavy rainstorms. For cleaning
instructions, see "Washing the
Vehicle" under Exterior Care 0 278.
If the DIC still displays the system
unavailable message after cleaning
both sides of the vehicle toward the
rear corners of the vehicle, see your
dealer.
If the SBZA displays do not light up
when vehicles are in the blind zone
and the system is clean, the system
may need ser vice. Take the vehicle to
your dealer.
When SBZA is disabled for any reason
other than the driver turning it off,
the Side Blind Zone Alert On option
will not be available on the
personalization menu.
Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)
If equipped, LDW may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may provide an alert if
the vehicle is crossing a lane without
using a turn signal in that direction.
LDW uses a camera sensor to detect
the lane markings at speeds of 56
km/h (35 mph) or greater.
{
Warning
The LDW system does not steer the
vehicle. The LDW system may not:
.
Provide enough time to avoid
a crash.
.
Detect lane markings under
poor weather or visibility
conditions. This can occur if
the windshield or headlamps
are blocked by dirt , snow,
or ice; if they are not in
proper condition; or if the sun
shines directly into the
camera.
.
Detect road edges.
.
Detect lanes on winding or
hilly roads.
If LDW only detects lane markings
on one side of the road, it will only
warn you when departing the lane
on the side where it has detected a
lane marking. Always keep your
attention on the road and maintain
proper vehicle position within the
lane, or vehicle damage, injur y,
