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 "Medium" 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 Warning
If a dedicated message is displayed, a condi-
tion limiting the system operation may have
occurred. The possible reasons of this limita-
tion 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 func-
tions end, this will go back to normal and
complete operation. Should the fault persist,
contact an 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 an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Radar Indication Not Available
If conditions are such that the radar cannot
detect obstacles correctly, the system is deac-
tivated 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 tempo-
rarily 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 condi-
tions of high reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with
reflective tiles or ice or snow). When the condi-
tions 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.
If the message appears frequently, even in the
absence of atmospheric conditions such as
snow, rain, mud or other obstructions, contact an
authorized dealer for a sensor alignment check.
In the absence of visible obstructions, manu-
ally removing the decorative cover trim and
cleaning the radar surface could be required.
Have this operation performed at an autho-
rized dealer.
NOTE:
It is recommended that you do not install
devices, accessories, or aerodynamic attach-
ments in front of the sensor or darken it in any
way, as this can compromise the correct func-
tioning of the system.
Frontal Collision Alarm With Active Braking
If this function is selected, the brakes are
operated to reduce the speed of the vehicle in
the event of potential collision.
This function applies an additional braking
pressure if the braking pressure applied by the
driver does not suffice to prevent potential
collision.
The function is active with speed above 2 mph
(4 km/h).
NOTE:
When using an automatic car wash it is recom-
mended to deactivate the system through the
settings of the radio system. The system may
detect the presence of a car, a wall or another
obstacle and activate.
