• Active Blind Spot Assist
Activating this feature the system
will try to prevent collision between
host vehicle and potential blind
spot collision hazard. System applies
direct input to electric power
steering system to change direction
of vehicle to avoid collision.
The current system setting is shown
in blue on the right side of the
ABSA soft-key. Touching this
soft-key the set page of ABSA
system will be displayed (see
picture).
Driver warnings can be only “Visual”, “Visual & Acoustic”
(default mode) or “Visual & Haptic”.
System response can be set to
“Early”, “Medium” (default mode)
and “Late”.
System reaction force can be set to
“Low”, “Medium” (default mode)
and “High”.
See “Active Blind Spot Assist -

• Forward Collision Warning (with
active braking)
The FCW feature primarily uses the
front radar and forward looking
camera for sensing vehicles and
pedestrian (if the car is equipped
with Pedestrian Emergency Braking
- PEB function) ahead, and will
provide warnings to the driver and
may perform braking maneuvers.
The current system setting is shown
in blue on the right side of the FCW
soft-key.
Touching this soft-key the set page
of FCW system will be displayed (see
picture). FCW is always active: it is possible to
set the sensitivity and the aid of the
active braking.
FCW sensitivity can be set to
“Near”, to “Medium” or to “Far”.
The default status of FCW is the
“Medium” setting. Setting it to
“Far” means the system will warn
you of a possible collision with the
vehicle or pedestrian (if the car is
equipped with Pedestrian
Emergency Braking - PEB function)
in front of you when you are
farther away. This gives you the best
reaction time, though could lead to
some more unwanted warnings.
“Medium” gives instead a little less
time for reacting compared to
“Far”, but at the same time should
lead to less not desired warning.

dynamic driving, select the “Near”Dashboard Instruments and Controls
