KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Important notesThe system has not been designed to
prevent impacts and cannot detect
possible conditions leading to anaccident in advance. Failure to take into
account this warning may lead to serious
or fatal injuries.
The system may be activated,
assessing the trajectory of the car, in
case of reflecting metal objects different
from other cars, such as safety barriers,
road signs, barriers before parking lots,
tollgates, level crossings, gates, railways,
objects near road constructions sites or
higher than the car (e.g. a flyover). In the
same way, the system may intervene
inside multi-storey car parks or tunnels,
or due to a glare on the road surface.
These possible activations follow the
normal operating logic of the system and
must not be regarded as faults.
The system has been designed for
road use only. If the car is driven
off-road, the system must be deactivated,
to avoid unnecessary warnings. By
selecting the 4WD LOW mode, the
system is automatically deactivated.
Automatic deactivation is indicated by
the dedicated warning light/icon
switching on in the instrument panel.
The system is only active if a trailer
has not been connected with the original
tow hook.
TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System)
(where provided)
73) 74) 75) 76) 77) 78) 79)42)
The TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System) reports low tyre pressure based
on the cold pressure indicated in the
"Technical specifications” chapter.
The system consists of a radio-frequency
transmitter sensor fitted to each wheel
(on the rim inside the tyre), which sends
information on the inflation pressure of
each tyre to the control unit.
The system automatically updates and
warning light
switches off each time
the system receives the updated inflation
pressures. The vehicle might need to be
driven at a speed higher than about
25 km/h up to 20 minutes for the TPMS
to receive this information.
IMPORTANT The TPMS is designed for
original tyres and wheels. The
pressures and alarms reported by the
TPMS are defined according to the
size of the tyres fitted on the vehicle.
Using spare wheels of a different sizes,
types and/or designs from the original
ones may cause the system to operate
incorrectly and damage the sensors.
Aftermarket fitted wheels may damage
the sensors. Using aftermarket tyre
