Ford Fusion: Blind Spot Information System (IF EQUIPPED) / System Errors. Switching the System Off and On
System Errors
If the system detects a fault, a warning
lamp illuminates and a message displays.
Switching the System Off and On
You can switch the system off using the
information display. When you switch
the system off, a warning lamp illuminates
and a message displays. When you switch
the system on or off, the alert indicators
flash twice.
Note: The system remembers the last
setting when you start your vehicle.
Note: The system may not correctly operate
when towing a trailer. For vehicles with a
trailer tow module and tow bar approved
by us, the system turns off when you attach
a trailer. For vehicles with an aftermarket
trailer tow module or tow bar, we
recommend that you switch the system off
when you attach a trailer.
To permanently switch the system off,
contact an authorized dealer.
Vehicles with Automatic Transmission
The system turns on when all of the
following occur:
You start your vehicle.
You shift into drive (D).
The vehicle speed is greater than
6 mph (10 km/h)...
WARNING: Do not use the cross
traffic alert system as a replacement for
using the interior and exterior mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before
reversing out of a parking space...
Other information:
Hazard Flashers
Note: The hazard flashers operate when
the ignition is in any position, or if the key is
not in the ignition. If used when the vehicle
is not running, the battery loses charge. As
a result, there may be insufficient power to
restart your vehicle...
