the crosswise direction and stationary
objects (e.g. a vehicle standing in a queue or
a broken down vehicle).
126) The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
127) The device does not always fully
recognise complicated driving conditions
which could cause incorrect or non-existing
determination of the safe distance to be
held.
128) The device cannot apply the maximum
braking force: the car will not be stopped
completely.
129) It is dangerous to leave the device
on when it is not used. There is a risk of
inadvertently activating it and losing control
of the car due to unexpected excessive
speed.
130) The device detects the direction of
traffic automatically when the car passes
from left-hand traffic to right-hand traffic.
In this case, the overtaking assist function
is only active when the reference vehicle
is overtaken on the right. The additional
acceleration is activated when the driver
uses the right direction indicator. In this
condition, the device no longer provides
the overtaking assist function on the left-
hand side until it determines that the car has
returned to left-hand traffic conditions.
131) The maximum breaking applied by the
device is limited. The driver may apply the
brakes in all cases if needed.
132) If the device predicts that the level of
braking is not sufficient to maintain the set
distance, the word “BRAKE!” or a dedicated
message on the instrument panel display
warns the driver that the vehicle ahead
is too close. An acoustic warning is also
emitted. In this case, it is advisable to brake
immediately as necessary to hold a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
133) The driver is responsible for ensuring
that there are no pedestrians, other vehicles
or objectives along the direction of the
vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious accidents
and injuries.
134) The driver is fully responsible for
holding a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead respecting the highway code in force
in the respective country.
IMPORTANT
38) The system may have limited operation
or not work at all in weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
39) The section of the bumper area in front
the sensor or the radar sensor itself must
not be covered with stickers, auxiliary
headlights or any other object.
40) Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the car, such
as a modification to the front geometry,
tyre change, or a heavier load than the
standard load of the car.
41) Incorrect repairs made on the front
part of the car (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to an Alfa
Romeo Dealership for any operation of this
type.
42) Do not tamper with or carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen glass. In the
event of a sensor failure, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
43) Do not wash with high-pressure jets
in the bumper lower area: in particular do
not operate on the system's electrical
connector.
44) Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the sensor
(panel covering the sensor on the left side
of the bumper). In the event of a frontal
collision the sensor may automatically
deactivate and display a warning to indicate
that the sensor needs to be repaired. Even
without a malfunction warning, deactivate
the system operation if you think that the
position of the radar sensor has changed
(e.g. due to low-speed frontal collision as
during parking manoeuvres). In these cases,
go to an Alfa Romeo Dealership to have the
radar sensor realigned or replaced.
