Features Specific for Vehicle
without ADAS • Blind Spot Assist
Activating this feature the BSA and
RCP systems assist the driver when
changing lanes, overtaking and
when parking, by detecting the
arrival of other vehicles from a side
or rear blind spot. When this
happens, a light signal appears in
the external rear-view mirror.
When the Blind Spot Assist (BSA) is
selected, feature can be set to
“Off”, “Lights” or “Lights + Chime”

Lane Keeping Assist - LKA
(optional, with ACC only) This system was designed especially
for highway or freeway driving, to
reduce the risk that the vehicle, under
particular circumstances, accidentally
departs from the lane in use. When
this happens, graphic instructions on
instrument cluster display together
with steering torque application and
steering wheel vibration (depending
on the distance to the line) warn the
driver that the vehicle is going out of
the lane and initiate a steering
maneuver to try to prevent the lane
exit.
To detect lane lines, the system uses
the forward-facing camera behind of
the rear-view mirror, which is the same
one used also by the lighting system
to manage the automatic high beams.
The logic core is in the front radar.
LKA system remembers the condition
it was in before turning off the
vehicle.
Refer to “MTC+ "Controls" Screen” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information. NOTE:
In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize the risks.

order to maximize its efficiency based
on the driver driving style and the

from moving forward in case of
sudden stops;
• avoid heavy meals before a trip. A
light snack helps keep your reflexes
sharp. In particular, avoid drinking
alcohol.
WARNING!
Passengers must only travel seated in
the vehicle seats, with the seat belts
fastened. Always check that the driver
and all passengers have the seat belts
correctly fastened.
Safe Driving Although the vehicle is equipped with
active and passive safety devices, the
driver's conduct is always a decisive
factor for road safety.
Some simple rules for traveling safely
in different conditions are listed
below. Some of them will probably
already sound familiar but, in any
case, it would be useful to read them
carefully.
Driving at Night
The main guidelines to follow when
driving at night are set out below.
• Drive carefully. Night conditions
demand more focus and attention. • Reduce your speed, especially on
roads with no streetlights.
• Stop at early signs of drowsiness.
Continuing to drive would be a risk
for yourself and for others. Have a
rest before continuing your trip.
• Keep the vehicle at a greater
distance from vehicles in front of
you than you would during the day:
it is difficult to assess the speed of
other vehicles when you only see the
lights.
• Use the high beams only outside of
densely-populated areas and when
you are sure that they will not
disturb other drivers.
• When another vehicle is
approaching, switch from high
beams (if on) to low beams.
• Keep lights and headlights clean.
• Outside of densely-populated areas,
beware of animals crossing the road.
Driving in the Rain
Rain and wet roads are dangerous. On
a wet road all maneuvers are more
difficult since wheel grip on the road
is significantly reduced. This means
that braking distances increase
considerably and road grip decreases.
Some advices for driving in the rain
are listed below. • Reduce your speed and keep a
greater safety distance from the
vehicles in front of you. High speed
may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
• When driving on wet or slushy roads,
it is possible for a wedge of water to
build up between the tire and road
surface. This is known as
aquaplaning and may cause partial
or complete loss of vehicle control
and stopping ability. To reduce this
possibility: slow down if the road has
standing water or puddles.
• Heavy rain substantially reduces
visibility. In these circumstances, even
during the day, turn on the low
beams, to be more visible to other
drivers.
• Set the air conditioning and heating
system controls on the defogging
function, in order to avoid any
visibility problem.
• Periodically check the conditions of
the windshield wiper blades.
• In low grip conditions use “I.C.E.”
driving mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” and “Off-road Drive” in this
section).
• Avoid driving with ESC OFF as this
will likely cause a loss of control of
the vehicle.Driving

Driving in Fog
If the fog is dense, avoid traveling if
possible.
When driving in mist, blanket fog or
when there is the possibility of banks
of fog, please consider some advices
listed below.
• Keep a moderate speed.
• Even in daytime, turn on the low
beams and front and rear fog lights.
Do not use the high beams.
• Remember that fog creates
dampness on the asphalt and thus
any type of maneuver is more
difficult and braking distances are
extended.
• Keep a safe distance from the vehicle
in front of you.
• Avoid sudden changes in speed as
much as possible.
• Whenever possible, avoid overtaking.
• If you are forced to stop the vehicle
(breakdowns, impossibility of
proceeding due to poor visibility,
etc.), first of all, try to stop off of the
travel lane. Then turn on the hazard
warning flashers and, if possible, the
low beams. CAUTION!
Be aware that rear fog lights can
bother the drivers following your
vehicle: when visibility is back to
normal, turn off these lights.
Driving in the Mountains
Mountain
roads usually have
many
narrow turns and curves, tunnels and
steep uphill or downhill slopes: please
consider some advices listed below.
• Drive at a moderate speed, avoid
“cutting” corners.
• When driving inside a tunnel in
daylight turn on the low beams in
advance; avoid high beams and be
aware of the rapid brightness
change. Avoid abrupt maneuvers
that could be dangerous for the
following vehicle.
• Never coast downhill with the engine
off or in neutral.
• Remember that passing other
vehicles when driving uphill is slower
and thus requires more free distance
on the road. If you are being
overtaken on a hill, slow down and
allow the other vehicle to pass. Driving on Snow or Ice
Please consider some general advice
for driving in these conditions, listed
below.
• Maintain a very moderate speed.
• Fit snow chains or specific tires if the
road is covered with snow: see the
paragraphs “Tires – General
Information” in this section.
• We recommend you to activate the
“I.C.E.” mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” and “Off-road Drive” in this
section).
• During the winter season, even
apparently dry roads can have icy
sections. Be careful when crossing
bridges, viaducts and roads that have
little exposure to the sun and are
bordered by trees and rocks. They
may be icy.
• Keep an ample safe distance from
the vehicles in front of you.
WARNING!
Rapid acceleration on slippery surfaces
is dangerous. Accelerate slowly and
carefully whenever there is likely to be
poor traction (ice, snow, wet mud,
loose sand, etc.).Driving
