The following table lists possible causes and actions for this message
being displayed:
The surface of the left or
right radar is dirty or
obstructed in some way
Clean the fascia area in front of the radar, either
left or right side, or remove obstruction.
The surface of the left or
right radar is not dirty or
obstructed
Drive normally in traffic for a few minutes to allow
the radar to detect that it is no longer blocked.
Note, the vehicle must be in D (Drive) and a few
vehicles must pass so that the BLIS™ can clear a
blocked state.
Heavy rainfall or heavy
snowfall is interfering
with the radar signals
No action required by the driver. The system will
automatically go unblocked once the
rainfall/snowfall rate decreases or stops. Do not use
BLIS™-CTA in heavy rainfall or heavy snowfall.
Trailer tow false alerts
When towing a trailer the left and right sensor may detect the trailer
thus causing a false alert. It may be desirable to turn the BLIS™ system
off if the false alerts become annoying.
Day and night brightness
The BLIS™-CTA amber alert will automatically dim when the headlamp
switch is in PARK, ON, or AUTO ON and night time darkness has been
detected by the sun sensor.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
If driving through deep or standing
water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly especially when the depth is
not known. Never drive through
water that is higher than the bottom
of the wheel rims (for cars) or the
bottom of the hubs (for trucks).
When driving through water, traction or brake capability may be limited.
Also, water may enter your engine’s air intake and severely damage your
engine or your vehicle may stall. Driving through deep water where
the transmission vent tube is submerged may allow water into the
transmission and cause internal transmission damage.
Once through the water, always dry the brakes by moving your
vehicle slowly while applying light pressure on the brake pedal.
Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle as quickly as dry brakes.
