Warning LightWhat It Means What To Do
REAR FOG LIGHT
The warning light switches on when the rear fog light is
activated.
OBD / INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition is cycled to ON,
the warning light switches on, but it should switch off as
soon as the engine is started.
The operation of the warning light may be checked by the
traffic police using specific devices. Comply with the laws
and regulations of the country where you are driving.
Injection System Failure
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on while
driving, the injection system is not working properly. The
warning light on constantly signals a malfunction in the
supply/ignition system which could cause high exhaust
emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor
driveability and high consumption.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction
disappears, but is still stored by the system.Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue
travelling at moderate speed but without demanding
excessive effort from the engine or high speed.
Prolonged use of the car with the warning light on
constantly may cause damage. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC) —
IF EQUIPPED
System Description
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
driver assist system that combines the
speed control functions for controlling
the distance from the vehicle ahead.
The system allows to set and hold the
vehicle at the desired speed without
needing to press the accelerator. It also
allows to set and hold a distance from
the vehicle ahead (these settings are set
by the driver).
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses
a radar sensor located behind the front
bumper and a camera located in the
center/upper part of the windshield, to
detect the presence of a vehicle close
ahead.This system enhances driving comfort
while on the highway or out of town
with light traffic.
Warning!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
convenience system. It is not a substitute
for active driving involvement. It is always
the driver’s responsibility to be attentive of
road, traffic, and weather conditions,
vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead; and, most importantly, brake
operation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required while
driving to maintain safe control of your
vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings
can result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
Does not react to pedestrians,
oncoming vehicles, and stationary objects
(e.g., a stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle).
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather
conditions into account, and may be
limited upon adverse sight distance
conditions.
Does not always fully recognize complex
driving conditions, which can result in
wrong or missing distance warnings.
Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop
while following a target vehicle and hold the
vehicle for approximately 3 minutes in the
stop position. If the target vehicle does not
start moving within 3 minutes the parking
brake will be activated, and the ACC
system will be canceled.
You should switch off the ACC system:
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy
snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex
driving situations (i.e., in highway
construction zones).
When entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp; when driving on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or
have steep uphill or downhill slopes.
When circumstances do not allow safe
driving at a constant speed.
