Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) System
The Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) system
assists the driver during reverse maneuvers in
the case of reduced visibility.
When the ABSA system is active, 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 0.6 mph and 2 mph
(1 km/h and 3km/h) to objects moving at a
maximum speed of 22 mph (35 km/h).
These are generally occurrences that happen
in parking areas.
The system activation is signaled to the driver
by means of a visual and audible warning.
NOTE:
If the sensors are covered by objects or vehi-
cles, the system may not work as intended.
Changing the system sensitivity
To change the sensitivity and the strength of
the torque intervention on the steering wheel,
refer to the Information and Entertainment
System Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Driver Attention Assist (DAA) System — If
Equipped
The Driver Attention Assist (DAA) system
detects when the driver is feeling fatigued and
warns the driver to pull over and take a break.
To Activate/Deactivate
The DAA system can be activated and deacti-
vated through the radio system by selecting
the following in order:
1. “Driver Assistance”
2. “Driver Attention Assist”
System Intervention
Using information from the front camera, the
system implements two operating logics:
The first operating logic takes the driving style
into account, observing the road and
detecting to what extent the driver can
continue driving with few lane crossing events.
The second operating logic measures the time
spent behind the wheel with the vehicle speed
above 40 mph (60 km/h) and below 110 mph
(180 km/h). If the “Standard” option is
selected, in these conditions, the “Dozy
Driver” message may appear after three hours
of driving. If the “Early” option is selected and
these conditions occur, the “Dozy Driver”
message will be displayed after two hours of
driving.
NOTE:
If the conditions described above are not
detected continuously during the entire driving
period, the “Dozy Driver” message may be
displayed later than two or three hours. If the
driving style indicates that the driver is unable
to follow the road trajectory and respect the
horizontal lane markings, the red symbol will
appear on the instrument cluster display to
suggest that the driver should stop for a break.
An audible signal will also sound.
If the driver accepts the suggestion provided
by the system by pushing the MENU button on
the multifunction lever, the message will
disappear from the display and the symbol will
be displayed in the dedicated area of the
instrument cluster display until the next
engine shutdown.
If the driver ignores the warning provided by
the system and does not stop, the message
will continue to remain on the display, along
with the symbol.
WARNING!
The DAA System is an aid for driving and does
not relieve the driver of the responsibility of
driving the vehicle. If you experience fatigue
while driving, pull over safely for a break
without waiting for the DAA to intervene. Only
return to the road when you are in the right
physical and mental condition to prevent
endangering yourself and other drivers.
