IMPORTANT The system does not
signal the presence of fixed object (e.g.
safety barriers, poles, walls, etc.).
However, in some circumstances, the
system may activate in the presence of
these objects. This is normal and does
not indicate a system malfunction.
IMPORTANT The system does not
warn the driver about the presence of
vehicles coming from the opposite
direction, in the adjacent lanes.

Important notes
If a trailer is connected to the car, to
avoid false indications this system must
be manually deactivated using the
relative menu.
For the system to operate correctly, the
rear bumper area where the radar
sensors are located must stay free from
snow, ice and dirt gathered from the
road surface.
Do not cover the rear bumper area
where the radar sensors are located
with any object (e.g. adhesives, bike
rack, etc.).
Rear-view
The system detects vehicles coming
from the rear part of your vehicle on
both sides and entering the rear
detection area with a difference in
speed of less than 50 km/h with
respect to your vehicle.
Overtaking vehicles
If another vehicle is overtaken slowly
(with a difference in speed of less than
about 25 km/h) and this stays in the
blind spot for about 1.5 seconds, the
warning light on the door mirror of the
corresponding side lights up.
If the speed delta between the two
vehicles is higher than about 25 km/h,
the warning light does not light up.
RCP (Rear Cross Path detection)
system
This system helps the driver during
reverse manoeuvres in the case of
reduced visibility.
The RCP system monitors the rear
detection areas on both sides of the
vehicle, to detect objects moving
towards the sides of the vehicle at a
minimum speed between about 1 km/h
and 3 km/h and objects moving at a
maximum speed of 35 km/h, as
generally happens in parking areas.
The system activation is signalled to the
driver by means of a visual and acoustic
warning.
IMPORTANT If the sensors are covered
by objects or vehicles, the system will
not warn the driver.
Operating mode
The system can be activated/
deactivated by operating on the display
Menu, or via the Uconnect™ system
(for further information see the
dedicated Supplement).
Blind Spot Assist "Visual" mode
When this mode is active, the BSA
system sends a visual warning to the
door mirror relating to the object
detected.
However, when operating in "RCP"
mode, the system produces acoustic
and visual warnings when if the
presence of an object is detected.
When an acoustic warning is sent,
theUconnect™ volume is lowered.
Blind Spot Assist "Visual &
acoustic" mode
When this mode has been activated,
the BSA system sends a visual warning
to the door mirror relating to the object
detected.
