2019 MASERATI LEVANTE mirror

System is Faulty
The BSA system cannot properly
operate due to a fault of its
components, or because the area on
the rear bumper fascia where the
radar sensors are located is dirty. In
these cases the amber warning light
and the related message will be
displayed on the instrument cluster.
In these cases avoid using the system
and have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
Radar Device - Regulatory
Information The “Regulatory Information” for all
the radio frequency and radar devices
can be consulted by accessing the
"Services" section on the website
www.maserati.com. Active Blind Spot Assist -
ABSA (optional, with ACC
only) ABSA system is only available on
vehicles equipped with ACC system
and represents an addition to the BSA
previously described (see chapter
"Blind Spot Assist - BSA" of this
section).
ABSA adds to the BSA the possibility in
certain circumstances to avoid and or
mitigate side collisions with vehicles
proceeding in the adjacent lanes by
changing the car trajectory in order to
try to keep it inside the detected/
estimated lane. A steering wheel
vibration is used as further feedback to
warn the driver that the lane change is
not safe.
The main logic core is the front radar,
whereas the sense inputs are the
radars on the rear bumper fascia used
for sensing the presence of vehicle in
the blind spot areas and the forward
facing camera placed behind the
internal rear-view mirror that instead
is used for lane detection and
estimation.
ABSA is designed to help the driver to
avoid mitigate a collision. Torque and
vibration application is however available in the 37 - 112 mph (60 -
180 km/h) speed interval. All the speed
thresholds related to the BSA remain
still valid, since ABSA as mentioned is
BSA extension.
ABSA is intended as a “hands-on”
function meaning that the driver is
required to stay engaged in the
driving all the time with his/her hands
on the steering wheel, in case hands
are not on the steering wheel for a
certain time there cannot be any
steering torque application vibration
included.
System Availability ABSA is designed for an attentive
driver therefore the system is available
only when his/her hands are on the
steering wheel or with hands off for a
very limited amount of time. When the
system is enabled, it will trigger cluster
warning in case at least one hand is
not detected on the steering wheel.
The torque application as well as the
vibration are suppressed/inhibited in
case of: high driver torque in the
steering wheel, high lateral
acceleration, hands not on the steering
wheel detected for more than a
certain time.

the lane boundary, off course willDriving

System sensitivity can be set to “Early”,
“Medium” (default mode) or “Late”.
System strength can be set to "Low",
"Medium" (default mode) or "High".
NOTE:
The ABSA system will store the current
operating mode when the vehicle is
shut off. Each time the vehicle is
started, the previously-stored mode
will be recalled and used.
Meanings of Settings
When "Visual & Haptic" is selected and
of course ABSA is enabled, then two
following menus will be used by the
system.
• ABSA "Sensitivity": it tunes the
distance to the lane boundary where
the system will start to apply steering
torque. • ABSA “Strength": it tunes the
steering torque value to have a
stronger or weaker trajectory
correction/deviation.
Blind Spot Assist in "Visual & Haptic"
Mode
When the system is on and configured
“Visual & Haptic” then the ABSA is
enabled and to the conventional visual
warnings is added the steering torque
and vibration.
When operating in this mode, the
system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate outside rear-view mirror
when it detects a vehicle or an object
in the detection areas monitored by its
sensors. In case of turn indicator
activation on the appropriate side, the
system will react with a torque on the
steering wheel to try to prevent the
lane change and therefore to
avoid/mitigate the collision. The
torque on the steering is applied when
the car is very close to the lane
boundary as a further feedback to
warn the driver of the unsafe
maneuver.
NOTE:
• The steering torque is not supplied if
the system is not able to estimate a
lane and if the turn indicator from
the appropriate side is not inserted. • The presence of the hands on the
steering wheel is detected by a logic
combination of a capacitive sensor
installed in the steering wheel and
the measured applied torque at the
steering column. This leads to a more
robust hands detection.
WARNING!
• Risk of accident despite steering
torque application of Active Blind
Spot Assist (ABSA).
• A course-correcting steering torque
application cannot always prevent a
collision.
• The driver is always required to
steer, brake or accelerate themself,
especially if ABSA warns or makes a
course correcting steer intervention.
• Always maintain a safe distance at
the sides.
• Steering torque application may be
interrupted at any time by counter
steering by the driver.
RCP - Rear Cross Path
Operation RCP operation is the same as described
in chapter "Blind Spot Assist - BSA".Driving

312

When ABSA is turned off from MTC+
"Controls" page, there will be no
visual or audible alerts from RCP
subsystem.
When ABSA is turned on with any
setting,RCP subsystem shall respond
with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected vehicle or object is
present. Whenever an audible alert is
requested, the radio (if on) is also
muted.
Right/left turn/hazard signal status is
ignored; the RCP status always
requests the chime.
System Temporarily
Unavailable The blind spot system will become
temporarily unavailable and the
instrument cluster display will show
the message “Blind Spot Alert
Temporarily Unavailable” when the
vehicle enters a radio quite zone
(example the areas around radio
telescopes).
The warning light on the outside
rear-view mirrors will be lit up and
stay lit until the vehicle exits the zone.
System in Fault The ABSA system cannot properly
operate either due to a fault of its
components, or because the area on windshield where the forward-facing
camera is located or on the rear
bumper fascia where the radar sensors
are located is dirty. In these cases the
amber warning light and the related
message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster.
In these cases do not use the system
and have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .

www.maserati.com.Highway Assist – HAS
(optional, with ACC only) The Highway Assist (HAS) is a level 2
Autonomy system (in reference to
NHTSA standards) that is designed to
aid the driver in the steering,
acceleration, and braking functions of
the vehicle.
HAS is designed to only function on
highways or limited access freeways.
HAS centers the vehicle by controlling
the EPS system based off of lane line
information from the forward-facing
camera and data from the front radar
sensor.
HAS combines ACC and LKA to
manage the steering and speed of the
vehicle under specific conditions. The
conditions to engage HAS are listed in
the next paragraph. If a lane line cross
is imminent, the steering wheel willDriving

Traffic Sign Assist – TSA
(optional) TSA detects traffic signs through the
use of a forward-facing digital camera
mounted on windshield, behind the
rear-view mirror. TSA assists the driver
by displaying on the instrument
cluster detected speed limits and
traffic signs with a restriction
indicated by an additional sign (e.g. in
snow conditions). TSA also uses the
data of the navigation system, in
order to provide information to the
driver in all cases in which the camera
is not able to detect the traffic signs
that are present on the road where
the car is travelling.
Some examples of these are: due to
low visibility, light reflection, damaged
traffic signs, traffic signs in wrong
position like rotated or fallen poles.
NOTE:
• Overtaking restriction signs are not
displayed by the TSA system.
• TSA provides a visual warning to the
driver when he/she unintentionally
reaches the maximum speed limit
allowed or when it exceeds the set
“Sensitivity” value. • The performance of TSA depends on
the update degree of navigation
system’s maps.
Customised Settings TSA is configurable by the customer
regarding the display mode on the
instrument cluster and the warning
sensitivity.
Entering "Controls" page on MTC+
display the driver can see the current
setting beside the "Traffic Sign Assist"
soft-key.
Touching “Traffic Sign Assist” soft-key
can disable or enable the system.
Touching the soft-key on the side the
driver can change the setting.
The display of the traffic signs can be
blinking or static.
The system can be set to display the
traffic signs when the speed of the
vehicle is equal to the speed limit allowed, or when it is higher than 5 or
10 mph (5 or 10 km/h).
Signs Monitoring on
Instrument Cluster
If TSA feature is set and a signs or a
speed limit is detected, the related
icons are displayed in the upper area
of the instrument cluster beside of the
main menu number and scroll arrows.Driving
