Before making a lane change,

1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
LCA Detection Zones
The LCA sensor covers a zone of
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5m
(11 ft). The height of the zone is
approximately between 0.5 m (1.5ft)
and 2 m (6 ft) off the ground. The
Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
warning area starts at approximately
the middle of the vehicle and goes
back 5 m (16ft). Drivers are also
warned of vehicles rapidly
approaching from up to 25m (82 ft)
behind the vehicle.
How the System Works
The LCA symbol lights up in the
side mirrors when the system
detects a vehicle in the next lane
over that is in the side blind zone or
rapidly approaching from behind.
A lit LCA symbol indicates it may be
unsafe to change lanes. Before
making a lane change, check the
LCA display, check mirrors, glance
over your shoulder, and use the turn
signals.
Left Side Mirror
Display
Right Side Mirror
Display
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror LCA 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 the
next lane over in that blind zone or
rapidly approaching that zone. If the
turn signal is activated in the same
direction as a detected vehicle, this
display will flash as an extra
warning not to change lanes.
