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.
WARNING! (Continued)

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
When the conditions shown in the “Activating
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.
