The system is active:
Each time the engine is started.
In the Information and Entertainment
System.
When the ignition is in the ON position.
The vehicle speed is between 4 mph
(7 km/h) and 124 mph (200 km/h).
When the front seat belts are
fastened.
Changing The System Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the system can be
changed through the Information and
Entertainment System menu, choosing
from one of the following three options:
"Near", "Med" or "Far". Refer to the
description in the “Information and
Entertainment System Supplement” for
how to change the settings.
The default setting is "Med". With this
setting, the system warns the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
when that vehicle is at a standard
distance, between that of the other two
settings.
With the system sensitivity set to "Far",
the system will warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
when that vehicle is at a greater distance,
thus providing the possibility of acting on
the brakes more lightly and gradually.
This setting provides the drivers with the
maximum possible reaction time to
prevent a potential collision.
With the option set to "Near", the system
will alert the driver of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front when that vehicle
is close. This setting offers the driver a
lower reaction time compared to the
"Med" and "Far" settings, in the event of a
potential collision, but permits more
dynamic driving of the vehicle.
The system sensitivity setting is kept in
the memory when the engine is turned
OFF.
System Limited Operation Signal
If a dedicated message is displayed, a
condition limiting the system operation
may have occurred. The possible reasons
of this limitation are if something is
blocking the camera view, or a fault is
present.
If an obstruction is signaled, clean the
area of the windshield.
Although the vehicle can still be driven in
normal conditions, the system may be not
completely available.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to normal
and complete operation. Should the fault
persist, contact your authorized dealer.
System Failure Signaling
If the system turns off and a dedicated
message is shown on the display, it
means that there is a fault with the
system.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the
vehicle, but you are advised to contact
you authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Radar Indication Not Available
If conditions are such that the radar
cannot detect obstacles correctly, the
system is deactivated and a dedicated
message appears on the display. This
generally occurs in the event of poor
visibility, such as when it is snowing or
raining heavily.
The function of this system can also be
temporarily reduced due to obstructions
such as mud, dirt or ice on the bumper. In
such cases, a dedicated message will be
shown on the display and the system will
be deactivated. This message can
sometimes appear in conditions of high
reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with reflective
tiles or ice or snow). When the conditions
limiting the system functions end, it will
go back to normal and complete
operation.
In certain cases, this dedicated message
could be displayed when the radar is not
detecting any vehicles or objects within
its view range.
If atmospheric conditions are not the
reason behind this message, check if the
sensor is dirty. It could be necessary to
clean or remove any obstructions in the
area.
