SPEED LIMITER
Description
This feature allows the speed of the
vehicle to be limited to speeds, which can
be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set with the
vehicle stationary or in motion. The
minimum speed that can be set is 18 mph
(30mk/h).
When this feature is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressing of the
accelerator pedal until the programmed
speed limit is reached (see "Speed Limit
Programming" paragraph).
Activation
The feature can be activated/
deactivated through the Information
and Entertainment System.
Activating The Device
To access this feature on the main menu,
select the following items in sequence:
"Settings", "Safety", “Speed Limiter” and
“ON”.
The activation of this feature is signaled
by the displaying of the green symbol
along with the last speed set. The Speed
Limiter feature can remain active
concurrently with the Speed Control
system. If a speed limit below the one
indicated in the Speed Control is
selected, the Speed Control speed will be
lowered to that of the Speed Limiter. This
function remains available in RACE mode.
Speed Limit Programming
The speed limit can be programmed
through the Information and
Entertainment System.
To access the function on the main menu,
select the following items in sequence:
"Settings", "Safety" and "Speed Limiter
Set Speed".
By turning the Rotary Pad, the speed
increases by 5 mph (5 km/h), from a
minimum of 18 mph (30 km/h) to a
maximum of 112 mph (180 km/h).
Exceeding The Programmed Speed
By fully pressing the accelerator pedal,
the programmed speed can be exceeded
even with the device active (e.g. in the
event of overtaking).
The device is disabled until the speed
drops below the set limit, after which it
reactivates automatically.

STARTING AND OPERATING

When the ESC (or ABS or other
stability control systems) are operating
or have just operated.
When the ESC system is off.
When the Forward Collision Warning
system is braking automatically.
In the event of system failure.
When the engine is OFF.
In case of obstruction of the radar
sensor (in this case the bumper area
where it is located must be cleaned).
If the system is set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system. These situations may vary
according to the conditions.
Note: The system will not be deactivated
when speeds higher than those set are
reached by pressing the accelerator
pedal above 110 mph (180 km/h). In
these situations, the system may not
work correctly and it is recommended to
deactivate it.
To Vary The Speed Setting
Increasing Speed
Once the system has been activated, you
can increase the speed by pushing the
SET switch upward. Each time the switch
is pushed, the speed increases by 1 mph. By pushing and holding the switch
upward, the set speed will increase in
increments of 5 mph until the switch is
released. Then, the new speed will be set.
Decreasing Speed
Once the system has been activated, you
can decrease the speed by pushing the
SET switch downward. Each time the
switch is pushed, the speed decreases
by 1 mph.
By pushing and holding the switch
downward, the set speed will decrease in
increments of 5 mph until the switch is
released. Then, the new speed will be set.
Note:
Moving the SET switch allows you to
adjust the speed according to the
selected unit of measurement ("US" or
"Metric") set on the Information and
Entertainment System (see dedicated
supplement).
When the unit of measurement is set
to Metric, pushing and holding the SET
switch will adjust the speed in 10 km/h
increments.
By keeping the accelerator pedal
depressed, the vehicle can continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. In this
case, use the SET switch to set the
speed to the vehicle’s current speed.
When you push the SET button to
reduce the speed, the braking system
intervenes automatically if the engine
brake does not slow the vehicle down
sufficiently to reach the set speed. The
device holds the set speed uphill and
downhill; however a slight variation is
entirely normal, particularly on slight
inclines.
The transmission could shift to a
lower gear when driving downhill, or
when accelerating. This is normal and
necessary to maintain the set speed
The system will disable while driving
if the brakes overheat.
Accelerating When Overtaking
When driving with ACC activated and
following a vehicle, the system will
provide an additional acceleration up to
the ACC set speed to assist in passing the
vehicle. This additional acceleration is
triggered when the driver utilizes the left
turn signal and will only be active when
passing on the left hand side.
The system detects the direction of
traffic automatically when the vehicle
passes from left-hand traffic to
right-hand traffic. In this case, the
overtaking assist function is only active
when the reference vehicle is overtaken
on the right. The additional acceleration
is deactivated when the driver uses the
right direction indicator and returns to
the original lane.
154
STARTING AND OPERATING

Engagement/Disengagement
To turn the system off, push the Park
Sensors System switch located to the
left of the headlight switch. The indicator
light within the switch will illuminate
when the system is turned off. Pushing
the switch a second time will turn the
system back on, and the indicator light
will turn off.
The indicator light within the Park
Sensors System switch will also be on in
case of system failure. If the switch is
pushed with a system failure, the
indicator light will flash for
approximately five seconds. The light will
then stay on constantly.
Note:When the ignition is cycled to ON,
the Park Sensors system keeps the last
state when the engine was stopped
(activated or deactivated) in its memory. System Activation/Deactivation
When the REVERSE gear is engaged and
the system is on, the front and rear
sensors are activated. If the vehicle
moves from REVERSE to a forward gear,
the rear sensors are deactivated, while
the front sensors remain active until the
speed of 9 mph (15 km/h) is exceeded.
Note:
In certain operating conditions, the
system could start detecting an obstacle
only after the vehicle has moved slightly
(a few inches).
Acoustic Signal
In the presence of an obstacle at the
front or the rear of the vehicle, an
acoustic signal with variable frequency
will sound:
The acoustic signal increases in
frequency as the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle decreases.
The acoustic signal becomes
continuous when the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
11 inches (30 cm), and stops if the
distance increases.
The acoustic signal is constant if the
distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle is unchanged.
Note: If the sensors detect several front
and rear obstacles, the closest obstacle
is considered. An intermittent signal will
sound if the obstacles are at the same
distance (front and rear). When the system emits an acoustic
signal, the volume of the Information and
Entertainment System, if activated, is
automatically lowered.
Indication On Display
The driver can select the type of warning
they would like to be displayed through
the Information and Entertainment
System. To access the function on the
main menu, select in the following order:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Driver Assistance.”
3. “ParkSense.”
4. “Mode.”
5. “Sound-Display.”
Visual Indications
The system indicates the presence of an
obstacle by displaying a single red arc in
the detected areas, in relation to the
distance of the object and the position of
the vehicle.
If the obstacle is detected in the front or
rear central area, a single red arc will be
displayed as the obstacle approaches,
first constant, then flashing, in addition
to an acoustic signal.
If the obstacle is detected in the front or
rear left and/or right area, a single red
flashing arc will be shown in the
corresponding area on the display and
the system will emit an acoustic signal,
either at frequent intervals or constantly.

159

If several obstacles are detected
simultaneously in the front and rear area,
the display will show all of them,
regardless of the area in which they were
detected.
In general, the vehicle is closer to the
obstacle when a single or several flashing
arcs are shown on the display and the
acoustic signal becomes continuous.
It is not possible to exit from the display
screen while the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Fault Indication
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated by a message on the display on
the instrument cluster. Refer to "Warning
Lights And Messages" in "Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel" for further
information.
Messages On The Display
In case of system failure, a dedicated
message appears on the instrument
cluster for about five seconds.
Cleaning The Front Or Rear Sensors:
If the display shows a message requiring
the sensors to be cleaned, make sure that
the outer surface and the underside of
the front and rear bumpers are free of
debris (e.g. snow, mud, ice, etc.). Once
these areas are clear, cycle the ignition to
STOP. Then, return it to ON mode. If the
message is still displayed, contact you
authorized dealer.
Audio System Not Available : If the
display shows a message that the audio
system is not available, it means that the
acoustic signal will be emitted by the
instrument panel, and not through the
vehicles speakers.
Note: Some conditions may influence
the performance of the Park Sensors
System:
Reduced sensor sensitivity could be
due to the presence of ice, snow, mud, or
thick paint on the surface of the sensor.
The sensors may detect a false
obstacle (echo interference) due to
mechanical interference, for example
when washing the vehicle or in extreme
weather.
The signals sent by the sensors can
be altered by the presence of ultrasonic
systems (e.g. pneumatic brake systems
of trucks or pneumatic drills) near the
vehicle.
System performance can be
influenced by the position of the
sensors. For example, due to a change in
the ride setting (caused by wear to the
shock absorbers or suspension), by
changing tires, overloading the vehicle or
operations that require the vehicle to be
lowered.
Be sure not to place bumper stickers
or other adhesives over the sensors as
this will affect system performance.
Warning!
Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using the Parking Sensor system.
Always check carefully behind your vehicle,
and be sure to check for pedestrians,
animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or
blind spots before backing up. You are
responsible for the safety of your
surroundings and must continue to pay
attention while backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
Caution!
The Parking Sensor system is only a
parking aid and it is unable to recognize
every obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might be temporarily detected
or not detected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will not be
detected when they are in close proximity
The vehicle must be driven slowly when
using the Parking Sensor system in order to
be able to stop in time when an obstacle is
detected. It is recommended that the driver
looks over his/her shoulder when using the
Parking Sensor system.

STARTING AND OPERATING

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
Description
The Lane Departure Warning system uses
a forward looking camera located on the
windshield to detect lane markings and
measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries.
When one or both lane limits are detected
and the vehicle passes over one without
an activated turn signal, the system emits
a visual as well as an audible signal.
If the vehicle continues to go beyond the
line of the lane without any intervention
from the driver, the surpassed line will
light up on the display (left or right) to
urge the driver to bring the vehicle back
into the limits of the lane.
Caution!
Do not tamper with nor operate on the
camera. Do not close the openings in the
aesthetic cover located under the interior
rear view mirror. In the event of a failure of
the camera, contact your authorized dealer.
The camera may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow,
formation of ice layers on the windshield.
Camera operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the windshield, by traffic conditions (e.g. vehicles that are
driving not aligned with yours, vehicle
driving in a transverse or opposite way on
the same lane, bend with a small radius of
curvature), by road surface conditions and
by driving conditions (e.g. off-road driving).
Make sure the windshield is always clean.
Use specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windshield. The camera
operation may also be limited or absent in
some driving, traffic and road surface
conditions.
If the windshield must be replaced due to
scratches, chipping or breakage, contact
exclusively your authorized dealer. Do not
replace the windshield on your own. It is
advisable to replace the windshield if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.

The system is activated/deactivated by
pushing the button located on the end of
the multifunction lever. Note:
When the engine is started, the
system maintains the operating mode
that was selected when it was turned
OFF.
Activation Conditions
Once turned on, the system becomes
active only if the following conditions are
met:
The vehicle speed is above 37 mph
(60 km/h).
The lane limit lines are visible at least
on one side.
There are suitable visibility conditions.
The road is straight or with wide radius
bends.
A suitable distance is kept from the
vehicle in front.
