STARTING AND OPERATING
STARTING THE ENGINE
Before  starting  the  engine,  be  sure  to  adjust
the  seat,  the  interior  rear  view  mirror,  door
mirrors, and fasten the seat belt correctly.
Never  press  the  accelerator  pedal  before
starting the engine.
If necessary, messages indicating the starting
procedure will be shown in the display.
Starting Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Apply  the  Electric  Park  Brake  (EPB)  andplace  the  gear  selector  in  PARK  (P)  or
NEUTRAL (N).
2. Fully  press  the  brake  pedal  without touching the accelerator.
3. Briefly push the ignition button.
4. If  the  engine  doesn't  start  within  a  few seconds,  you  need  to  repeat  the  proce -
dure.
If the problem persists, contact an authorized
dealer.
Remote Starting System
This  system  uses  the  key  fob  to  start  the
engine  conveniently  from  outside  the  vehicle
while  still  maintaining  security.  The  system
has a range of at least 300 feet (91 meters).
The remote starting system also activates the
climate  control,  the  heated  seats  (if
equipped),  and  the  heated  steering  wheel  (if
equipped),  depending  on  temperatures
outside and inside of the vehicle.
NOTE:
Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range.
 WARNING!
When  leaving  the  vehicle,  always  remove
the key fob from the vehicle and lock your
vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing  children  to  be  in  a  vehicle  unat -
tended  is  dangerous  for  a  number  of
reasons.  A  child  or  others  could  be  seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned  not  to  touch  the  parking  brake,
brake  pedal  or  the  transmission  gear
selector.
Do  not  leave  the  key  fob  in  or  near  the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil -
dren.  A  child  could  operate  power
windows,  other  controls,  or  move  the
vehicle.
Do  not  leave  children  or  animals  inside
parked  vehicles  in  hot  weather.  Interior
heat build-up may cause  serious  injury or
death.
 WARNING!
Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into  the  throttle  body  air  inlet  opening  in
an attempt to start the vehicle. This could
result  in  flash  fire  causing  serious
personal injury.
Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle
to get it started. Vehicles equipped with an
automatic transmission cannot be started
this  way.  Unburned  fuel  could  enter  the
catalytic  converter  and  once  the  engine
has  started,  ignite  and  damage  the
converter and vehicle.
If  the  vehicle  has  a  discharged  battery,
booster  cables  may  be  used  to  obtain  a
start from a booster battery or the battery
in  another  vehicle.  This  type  of  start  can
be  dangerous  if  done  improperly 
Ú
 page 201.
 CAUTION!
To  prevent  damage  to  the  starter,  do  not
continuously crank the engine for more than
25  seconds  at  a  time.  Wait  60  seconds
before trying again.

Overtake Aid
When driving with ACC engaged and following
a  vehicle  at  a  speed  greater  than  45 mph
(70 km/h),  the  system  will  provide  an  addi-
tional acceleration up to the ACC set speed to
assist  in  passing  the  vehicle.  This  additional
acceleration  is  triggered  when  the  driver
utilizes  the  left  turn  signal  and  will  only  be
active when passing on the left hand side.
The system detects the direction of traffic auto -
matically  when  the  vehicle  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 deactivated
when  the  driver  uses  the  right  direction  indi -
cator and returns to the original lane.
“Stop And Go” Function
The  “Stop  and  Go”  operating  strategy  allows
you  to  maintain  a  safe  distance  from  the
vehicle ahead until the vehicle has completely
stopped.
In  the  event  that  the  ACC  system  brings  your
vehicle  to  a  standstill  while  following  the
vehicle  in  front,  if  the  vehicle  in  front  starts moving  within  two  seconds  of  your  vehicle
coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume
motion without the need for any driver action.
If  the  vehicle  in  front  does  not  start  moving
within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will have to push the RES/
SET switch upward to restart.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated and the set speed is
canceled if:
The  on/off  button  is  pushed  (when  the
system is on or paused).
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
RACE  mode  is  activated  (Quadrifoglio
models)
The  system  is  canceled  (the  set  speed  and
distance are stored):
When the system is paused 
  
Úpage 108

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)” section occur 
Úpage 108
Limited Operation Warning
If  the  dedicated  message  is  shown  on  the
display,  a  condition  limiting  the  Adaptive
Cruise Control operation may have occurred.
This  could  be  due  to  an  obstruction  of  the
vehicle’s  sensor  or  camera.  It  could  also  be
due to  a fault in the system.  If  an  obstruction
is  detected,  clean  the  area  of  the  windshield
opposite  the  interior  rearview  mirror,  where
the  camera  is  located,  as  well  as  the  area  of
the  front  fascia/bumper  where  the  sensor  is
located.  Then  check  that  the  message  has
disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system func -
tions end, normal operation will resume.
Should the fault persist, contact an authorized
dealer.
Precautions While Driving With ACC
In  certain  driving  situations,  ACC  may  have
detection  issues.  In  these  cases,  ACC  may
brake  late  or  unexpectedly.  The  driver  needs
to  stay  alert  and  may  need  to  intervene.  The
following are examples of these types of situa -
tions:
Towing A Trailer
Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC.
Offset Driving
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane
that  is offset from your direct line of travel, or
a  vehicle  merging  in  from  a  side  lane.  There
may  not  be  sufficient  distance  to  the  vehicle
The driver is fully responsible for holding a
safe  distance  from  the  vehicle  ahead
respecting  the  highway  code  in  force  in
the respective country.
 WARNING!  (Continued)
 WARNING!
When  the  ACC  system  is  resumed,  the
driver  must  ensure  that  there  are  no
pedestrians, vehicles or objects in the  path
of  the  vehicle.  Failure  to  follow  these
warnings can result in a collision and death
or serious personal injury.
