Increase your confidence. Both day and night.<br />

Change lanes. Back it up.<br />

While you’re driving, BLIS ® (Blind<br />

Spot Information System) with<br />

cross-traffic alert 1,2 is designed to<br />

alert you with an amber light in<br />

your sideview mirror whenever it<br />

detects traffic in your blind spots.<br />

And when you’re slowly backing<br />

out of a parking spot or driveway, it<br />

alerts you to vehicles approaching<br />

from either side with a sound, a<br />

message centre warning and the<br />

amber light.<br />

Maintain your cruising distance.<br />

Adaptive cruise control and<br />

collision warning with brake<br />

support 1 is designed to help<br />

you maintain a preset gap from<br />

the vehicle in front of you. If a<br />

potential collision is detected,<br />

the system flashes a warning<br />

across your windshield, sounds an<br />

alarm, pre-charges the brakes and<br />

increases brake-assist sensitivity<br />

to provide full responsiveness<br />

when you do brake.<br />

1 Available feature. 2 BLIS replaces standard integrated blind spot mirrors.<br />

Driver-assist features are supplemental and do not replace the driver’s judgment.<br />

Keep your lane. Stay alert.<br />

The new Lane Keeping System 1<br />

is designed to alert you if it<br />

detects Explorer drifting toward<br />

a lane marker. A tiny camera<br />

tracks the road ahead of you.<br />

If it detects you approaching<br />

the line, it applies torque to the<br />

steering wheel, directing you to<br />

correct your path. If you cross a<br />

marker, Explorer shudders the<br />

steering wheel, alerting you to<br />

steer back toward centre. Drowsy<br />

drivers should promptly heed<br />

the warning of the Driver Alert<br />

System, which displays a coffee<br />

cup icon in your gauge cluster if<br />

it detects that you need to take<br />

a break from driving.<br />

Light your way. Brilliantly.<br />

New auto high beams 1 enhance<br />

the high-intensity discharge<br />

(HID) headlamps 1 by activating<br />

themselves to help improve<br />

visibility when no automotive<br />

headlamps or tail lamps are<br />

detected in front of your Explorer.<br />

If lights are sensed, the system<br />

returns to the low-beam setting<br />

to help reduce glare for vehicles<br />

in front of you.<br />
