2007 Volvo XC90
BLIS is an information system that indicates the presence of another vehicle moving in the same direction as your vehicle
in the sideview mirror's "blind area."
The system is based on digital camera technology. The cameras (1) are located beneath the side-view mirrors.
When one (or both) of the cameras have detected a vehicle in the blind area (up to approximately 10 ft. (3 meters) from the
side of your vehicle, and up to approximately 31 ft. (9.5 meters) behind the side-view mirror), see the illustration in the
right column, the indicator light in the door panel (2) illuminates.
WARNING!
● BLIS is an information system, NOT a warning or safety system.
● BLIS does not eliminate the need for you to visually confirm the conditions around you, and the need for you to turn
your head and shoulders to make sure that you can safely change lanes.
● As the driver, you have full responsibility for changing lanes in a safe manner.
The light will glow continuously to alert the driver of the vehicle in the blind area.
NOTE: The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system has detected another vehicle.
If your vehicle is passed on both sides at the same time, both lights will illuminate.
BLIS has an integrated function that alerts the driver if a fault should occur with the system. For example, if one or both of
the system's cameras are obscured, a message (see the table on
page 147) will appear in the information display in the
instrument panel. If this occurs, clean the camera lenses. If necessary, the system can be temporarily switched off (for
instructions, see
page 147).
