Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) (Only S60 (11-)/V60)
The blind spot information system (BLIS) is an auxiliary system designed to help the vehicle's driver when moving sideways. The blind spot information system (BLIS) consists of two cameras integrated in the external rear view mirrors and two LEDs located in the panel at the front of the inside of the respective windows.
The central electronic module (CEM) communicates with the left camera module (LCM) and the right camera module (RCM) via LIN-communication.
Vehicles with BLind spot Information System (BLIS) that are not equipped with function for keyless vehicle will still be equipped with Keyless vehicle module (KVM), only the module but not the function. Keyless vehicle module (KVM) is needed to make a communication bus available on Central electronic module (CEM) which normally is used for communication with remote receiver module (RRX). Instead these vehicles are equipped with remote receiver (TRX) connected to Keyless vehicle module (KVM).
The blind spot information system (BLIS) is always activated automatically at speeds over 10 km/h (6 mph). The blind spot information system (BLIS) can be deactivated and reactivated using the switches on the comfort panel of the climate control module (CCM). A signal is then sent via Central electronic module (CEM) to the left camera module (LCM) and right camera module (RCM) with a request to deactivate or reactivate the blind spot information system (BLIS).
When reverse gear is engaged, the blind spot information system (BLIS) is deactivated.
The system reacts to vehicles in the blind spot if:
- the vehicle is traveling past another vehicle with a speed difference of up to 10 km/h.
- another vehicle passes with a speed difference of up to 70 km/h.
BLind spot Information System (BLIS) can be diagnosed in the Central electronic module (CEM).
