The device further enhances driving
comfort provided by the electronic
Cruise Control when on the motorway
or out of town with light traffic.
Using the device is not beneficial on
busy extra-urban roads or on urban
streets.
IMPORTANT NOTES
If the sensor does not detect any
vehicle ahead, the device will maintain a
fixed set speed.
If the sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
the device automatically brakes to avoid
getting closer than the set distance.
Once behind a vehicle, the system will
brake or accelerate to maintain the
distance, without ever exceeding the
set speed.
It is advisable to turn the device off in
the following cases:
driving in fog, heavy rain, snow,
heavy traffic and in complex driving
situations (e.g. on motorways with
roadworks in progress);
driving near a bend (winding roads),
icy, snowy, slippery roads or with steep
slopes and descents;
entering a turn lane or on a slip road;
towing a trailer;
when circumstances do not allow
safe driving at a constant speed.There are two operating modes:
“Adaptive Cruise Control” mode
to hold an appropriate distance
between vehicles (a dedicated message
is shown on the instrument panel
display);
electronic “Cruise Control” mode
to hold the vehicle at a constant
preset speed.
To change the operating mode, use the
button on the steering wheel (see that
described on the following pages).
The "electronic Cruise Control" does
not alter the speed if there are vehicles
in front. Always adjust the speed
according to traffic conditions.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Deactivation
With the device active, to deactivate it
press and release the button
. The
display will show a dedicated message.
SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
The device can only be set with the
speed over 30 km/h (or equivalent
in mph) and under 160 km/h (or
equivalent in mph). When the car
reaches the desired speed, press and
release the button SET + or SET – the
display will show the set speed.
With the system set, the relative symbol
(fig. 124 ) is white.
Then take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
IMPORTANT Pressing the accelerator
pedal again, the car’s speed may
exceed the set value.
While the accelerator pedal is pressed:
a dedicated message is displayed for
a few seconds;
the device will not be able to control
the distance between the vehicle and
the one ahead. In this case the speed
will be determined only by the position
of the accelerator pedal.
The device will return to normal
operation as soon as the accelerator
pedal is released.The systemcannotbe set:
when pressing the brake pedal;
when the manual parking brake has
been operated;
when the brakes are overheated;
when the shift lever is in the R
(reverse), neutral or in 1st(first gear
engaged) positions (versions with
manual transmission);
when the shift lever is in the P (park),
R (reverse) or N (neutral) positions
(versions with automatic transmission or
dual-clutch automatic transmission);
when the clutch is pressed;
when the car speed is not within the
settable speed range;
when the engine speed exceeds a
maximum threshold (versions with
manual transmission and versions with
automatic transmission/dual-clutch
automatic transmission) or goes below
a minimum threshold (only versions with
manual transmission);
when the ESC (or ABS or other
stability control systems) are operating
or have just operated;
during automatic braking by the Full
Brake Control system;
when the Speed Limiter is active;
when the electronic Cruise Control is
active;
in case of failure of the device;
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).
In case of system set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system with times that may vary
according to the conditions.
IMPORTANT With the device set, it is
possible to reach speeds higher than
those set in the system by pressing the
accelerator pedal. In this situation, the
device does not turn off automatically,
but the device’s functions are limited: it
is therefore recommended to turn it off.
CHANGING THE SPEED
Speed increase
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be stored by holding the
SET + button pressed.
Press the SET + button once, the set
speed will increase by 1 km/h (or the
equivalent in mph). Each subsequent
touch of the button will increase the
speed by 1 km/h (or the equivalent
in mph).
Hold the SET + button down, the set
speed will increase in 10 km/h steps (or
the equivalent in mph) until the button is
released. The set speed increase is
shown on the display.
123

Decreasing speed
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be reduced by holding the
SET – button pressed.
Press the SET – button once, the set
speed will decrease by 1 km/h (or the
equivalent in mph). Each subsequent
touch of the button will reduce the
speed by 1 km/h (or the equivalent
in mph).
Hold the SET – button down, the set
speed will decrease in 10 km/h steps
(or the equivalent in mph) until the
button is released. The set speed
decrease is shown on the display.
IMPORTANT NOTES
By keeping the accelerator pedal
depressed, the car can continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. In this
case, press the SET + (or SET – )
button to set the speed to the current
speed of the car.
When the SET – button is pressed to
reduce the speed, the braking system
intervenes automatically if the engine
brake does not slow the car 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
gradients.For versions with manual transmission,
gears can be shifted during operation of
the device to allow to select the gear
suited to the set speed and keep the
device set.
The device is cancelled when you press
and hold the clutch pedal down or
putting the gear lever in the neutral
position for more than a certain time
limit.
The automatic transmission (or dual
clutch automatic transmission) could
change to a lower gear when driving
downhill or when accelerating. This is
normal and necessary to maintain the
set speed.
The device is switched off while driving
if the brakes overheat.
ACCELERATING WHEN
OVERTAKING
If driving behind a vehicle at a speed
above 50 km/h with the Adaptive
Cruise Control on, when the direction
indicator is turned on, the device
provides additional acceleration to aid
overtaking.
For left-hand drive vehicles, the
overtaking aid is activated when the left
direction indicator is turned on, while for
right-hand vehicles it is activated by the
right direction indicator.In left-hand traffic, the overtaking assist
function is only active when the
left-hand lane is used for overtaking the
vehicle ahead (the opposite activation
logic is used in right-hand traffic
countries).
The device detects the direction of
traffic automatically when the car
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 activated
when the driver uses the right direction
indicator.
In this condition, the device no longer
provides the overtaking assist function
on the left-hand side until it determines
that the car has returned to left-hand
traffic conditions.
IMPORTANT For versions equipped
with dual-clutch automatic
transmission, the ECO function also
acts on the acceleration
responsiveness of the Adaptive Cruise
Control. If you prefer a more responsive
behaviour, you can turn off the ECO
function or operate the accelerator
pedal. In the latter case, normal
Adaptive Cruise Control operation will
resume when the pedal is released.

STARTING AND DRIVING

RECALLING THE SPEED
Once the system has been cancelled
but not deactivated, if a speed was
previously set simply press the RES
(Resume) button and remove your foot
from the accelerator to recall it.
The system will be set to the last stored
speed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, press the RES (Resume) button
and then release it.
IMPORTANT The recall function must
only be used if the road and traffic
conditions so allow. Recalling an
excessively high or low speed for the
current traffic and road conditions could
cause an acceleration or a deceleration
of the vehicle. Failure to comply with
these precautions may cause serious
accidents and fatal injuries.
SETTING THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN VEHICLES
The distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead may be set to 1 bar
(short), 2 bars (medium), 3 bars (long),
4 bars (maximum) (see fig. 125 ).The distances from the vehicle ahead
are proportional to speed. The interval
of time with respect to the vehicle
ahead remains constant and varies
from 1 second (for the short distance
1-bar setting) to 2 seconds (for the
maximum distance 4-bar setting).
The set distance is shown on the
display with a symbol in the “Driver
Assist” area.
The setting is 4 (maximum) the first time
the device is used. After the distance
has been modified by the driver, thenew distance will be stored also after
the system is deactivated and
reactivated.
To decrease the distance
Press and release the
button to
decrease the distance setting.
The distance setting decreases by one
bar (shorter) every time the button is
pressed.
The set speed is held if there are no
vehicles ahead. Once the shortest
distance has been reached, a further
press of the button will set the longest
distance.
If a slower vehicle is detected in the
same lane, it will be shown on the
display in the “Driver Assist” area. The
device will automatically adjust the car’s
speed to maintain the set distance,
independently of the set speed.
The vehicle holds the set distance until:
the vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed higher than the set speed;
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane or
the detection field of the Adaptive
Cruise Control device sensor;
the distance setting is changed;
the Adaptive Cruise Control device is
deactivated/cancelled.

IMPORTANT The maximum breaking
applied by the device is limited. The
driver may apply the brakes in all cases
if needed.
IMPORTANT If the device predicts that
the braking level is not sufficient to hold
the set distance, the driver is warned by
a message indicating that the vehicle
ahead is too close. An acoustic signal is
also emitted. In this case, it is advisable
to brake immediately as necessary to
hold a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
IMPORTANT The driver is responsible
for ensuring that there are no
pedestrians, other vehicles or
objectives along the direction of the
vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious
accidents and injuries.
IMPORTANT The driver is fully
responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.
DEACTIVATION
The device is deactivated and the set
speed is cancelled if:
thebutton is pressed on the
Adaptive Cruise Control;
thebutton is pressed on the
electronic Cruise Control;
the Speed Limiter button is pressed;
the ignition device is in the STOP
position.
The device is cancelled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
when the CANC button is pressed;
when the conditions shown in the
“Setting the desired speed” paragraph
occur;
when the vehicle speed drops under
the minimum set speed (e.g. in
presence of slow vehicles).
If these conditions occur while the
system is decelerating with respect to a
vehicle ahead, the system could
continue the deceleration, if necessary,
also after it is cancelled or deactivated
within the minimum speed settable on
the system.
SYSTEM LIMITED
OPERATION WARNING
If the dedicated message is shown on
the display, a condition limiting the
system operation may have occurred.
This limitation could be caused by a
fault or obstruction of the radar sensor.
If an obstruction is signalled, clean the
area of the bumper in which the sensor
is located in fig. 122 and check that the
message has disappeared.When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to
normal and complete operation. Should
the fault persist, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
PRECAUTIONS WHILE
DRIVING
The device may not work correctly in
some driving conditions (see below):
the driver must control the vehicle at all
times.
Towing a trailer
Use of the device is not recommended
while towing a trailer.
Vehicle not aligned
The device may not detect a vehicle
travelling on the same lane but which is
not aligned along the same direction of
travel or a vehicle which is cutting in
from a side lane. Sufficient distance
from the vehicles ahead may not be
guaranteed in these cases.
The non-aligned vehicle can weave in
and out of the driving direction causing
the vehicle to brake or accelerate
unexpectedly.
Steering and curves
On curves fig. 126 with the device set,
it could limit speed and acceleration to
guarantee vehicle stability even if no
vehicles are detected ahead.
126
STARTING AND DRIVING

ELECTRONIC CRUISE
CONTROL MODE
Electronic Cruise Control mode is
available for travelling at constant speed
in addition to the Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) mode.
If the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
function is implemented on the vehicle,
the electronic Cruise Control works in
the same manner as the ACC (by
pressing the
button of the Cruise
Control) with the difference that:
it does not hold the distance from the
vehicle ahead;
the device keeps working if the
radar sensor is obstructed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, press the RES (Resume) button
and then release it.
WARNING
126)Pay the utmost attention while driving
at all times and be always ready to press
the brakes if needed.
127)The system is an aid for the driver,
who must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests with
the driver, who must take into account the
traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
128)The device is not activated in
presence of pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles in the opposite direction of travel
or moving in the crosswise direction and
stationary objects (e.g. a vehicle standing
in a queue or a broken down vehicle).
129)The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions, and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
130)The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions, and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
131)The device cannot apply the
maximum braking force: the car will not be
stopped completely.
IMPORTANT
49)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.50)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
51)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.
52)Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to a Fiat
Dealership for any operation of this type.
53)Do not tamper nor operate on the radar
sensor. In the event of a sensor failure,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
54)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
55)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may automatically
deactivate and display a warning to indicate
that the sensor needs to be repaired. Even
without a malfunction warning, deactivate
the system operation if you think that the
position of the radar sensor has changed
(e.g. due to low-speed frontal impact as
during parking manoeuvres). In these
cases, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
radar sensor realigned or replaced.

STARTING AND DRIVING

PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
SENSORS
132)
56) 57) 58)
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper fig. 130, are used to detect the
presence of any obstacles near the rear
part of the vehicle.
The sensors warn the driver about the
presence of possible obstacles with an
intermittent acoustic signal and,
depending on the version, also with
visual indications on the instrument
panel display.
Activation
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is selected.As the distance from the obstacle
behind the vehicle decreases, the
frequency of the acoustic signal
increases.
Acoustic signal
When reverse is engaged and there is
an obstacle behind the vehicle, an
acoustic signal is activated and the
signal varies as the distance of the
obstacle from the bumper varies.
The frequency of the acoustic signal:
increases as the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle decreases;
becomes continuous when the
distance separating the vehicle from the
obstacle is less than about 30 cm;
is constant if the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is
unchanged. If this situation concerns
the side sensors, the signal will stop
after approximately 3 seconds to avoid,
for example, indications in the event of
manoeuvres along a wall.
stops immediately if the distance of
the obstacle increases.
When the system emits the acoustic
signal, the volume of theUconnect™
system (where provided) is
automatically lowered.Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
Indication on display
The indications regarding the Park
Assist system are shown only if the
"Acoustic signal and display" item in the
"Settings" menu of theUconnect™ 5"
or7" HDsystem (where provided) was
previously selected (for more
information, see the description in the
dedicated chapter).
The system indicates the presence of
an obstacle by displaying a single arc in
one of the possible areas, in
accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
vehicle. If the obstacle is detected in the
rear central area, a single arc will be
displayed as the obstacle approaches,
first constant, then flashing, in addition
to an acoustic signal.FAULT INDICATION
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
the switching on of the
symbol on
the instrument panel together with the
message on the display (see
description in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter).
