to this function to learn about factors
such as its limitations and what the

Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgement. The driver is always
responsible for ensuring the car is
driven in a safe manner, at the appro-

tance to other vehicles, and in accord-
ance with current traffic rules and reg-
ulations.

If BLIS is activated when starting the engine,
the function is confirmed by the door mirror
indicator lamps blinking once.
If BLIS was deactivated when the engine was
switched off, it will continue to be deactivated
when the engine is next started and no indica-
tor lights will then be illuminated.
