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 (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 mirrors.

BLIS can never replace the driver's responsibility and attention - it is always the driver's responsibility to change lanes in a safe manner.
