PARKSENSE FRONT/REAR
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense system provides visual and
audible indications of the distance between the
rear, and if equipped, the front fascia/bumper
and a detected obstacle when backing up or
moving forward (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
The vehicle brakes may be automatically applied
and released when performing a reverse parking
maneuver if the system detects a possible
collision with an obstacle.
When the REVERSE gear is engaged and the
system is on, the front and rear sensors are
activated. If the vehicle moves from REVERSE to
a forward gear, the rear sensors are deactivated,
while the front sensors remain active until the
speed of 9 mph (15 km/h) is exceeded.

NOTE:
In certain operating conditions, the system could
start detecting an obstacle only after the vehicle
has moved slightly (a few inches).
PARKSENSE SENSORS
The ParkSense sensors located in the rear
fascia/bumper and (if equipped) in the front
fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front and
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field
of view. These sensors detect the presence of any
obstacles and warn the driver through an
acoustic signal and visual indications, which will
be displayed on the instrument cluster display.Front Sensor Location
Rear Sensor Location
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using the ParkSense system. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for the safety
of your surroundings and must continue to pay
attention while backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
The ParkSense system is only a parking aid
and it is unable to recognize every obstacle,
including small obstacles. Parking curbs
might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or
below the sensors will not be detected when
they are in close proximity.
The vehicle must be driven slowly when
using the ParkSense system in order to be
able to stop in time when an obstacle is
detected. It is recommended that the driver
looks over his/her shoulder when using the
ParkSense system.

The system is activated/deactivated by pushing
the button located on the end of the
multifunction lever, or through the “Driver
Assistance” widget using the radio system.
Lane Departure Warning System Activation/ Deactivation Button

NOTE:
The Lane Departure Warning system will retain
the last system state on or off from the last igni -
tion cycle when the ignition is placed in the ON/
RUN position. Activation Conditions
Once turned on, the system becomes active only
if the following conditions are met:
The vehicle speed is equal to or above 37 mph
(60 km/h) (the system is deactivated at
speeds equal to or greater than 110 mph
(180 km/h)).
The lane markings are visible at least on one
side.
There are suitable visibility conditions.
The road is straight or with wide radius bends.
A suitable distance is kept from the vehicle in
front.
The turn signal is not active.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING MESSAGE
The Lane Departure Warning system will indicate
the current lane drift condition through the
instrument cluster display.
When the system is on and the lane markings
have not been detected, the display shows two
grey lane lines.
Lane Markings Not Detected Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
When the system is active and only the left lane
marking has been detected, the detected lane
illuminates in white on the display; the system is
ready to provide visual warnings on the display in
the event of unintentional exiting of the lane (turn
signal not activated) to the left.
Left Lane Marking Detected
When the system detects that the vehicle has
approached the lane marking and is about to
pass it, the left line on the display illuminates in
yellow.
Left Lane Marking Approached
If the windshield must be replaced due to
scratches, chipping or breakage, contact
exclusively your authorized dealer. Do not
replace the windshield on your own. It is
advisable to replace the windshield if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.
CAUTION!
22_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 118

119

The system operates in the same way, but
mirrored, in the event of exiting the right lane
when only the right lane marking has been
detected.
Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
When the system is active, both lane lines on the
display illuminate in white to indicate that both of
the lane markings have been detected.
When lane markings are detected, the system is
ready to provide indications in case the driver
unintentionally leaves the lane (turn signal not
activated).
As the Lane Departure Warning system detects
the lane markings while the vehicle is in motion,
it will adjust the display accordingly (from white to
yellow and vice versa, and increase their
thickness).
If a lane line is crossed, the driver is alerted by an
audible signal as well as the visual indication in
the instrument cluster. The signal is emitted
through the speakers on the side of the lane
marking which is being crossed (e.g. if the vehicle
is exceeding the left line of the lane, the audible
signal will come from the speakers on the left of
the vehicle).
Limited Operation Warning
If a message appears on the display, a condition
limiting the Lane Departure Warning system
operation may have occurred. This could be an
obstruction of the camera view, or a fault in the
system.If an obstruction is detected, clean the area of the
windshield by the interior rearview mirror.
Although the vehicle can still be driven in normal
conditions, the system may not function properly.
When the conditions limiting the system are
corrected, it will go back to normal operation.
Should a fault persist, contact an authorized
dealer.
System Failure Warning
If the system turns off and the warning light
appears on the display, it means that there is a
system fault.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the vehicle,
but you are advised to contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
CHANGING LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
S
TATUS
The system's sensitivity can be set through the
radio system. Sensitivity “High” or “Low” can be
selected.
To access the function, from the main menu
select the following in order:
1. Driver Assistance
2. Lane Departure Warning
3. Sensitivity

LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system uses a
camera located on the windshield to detect the
lane markings and calculate the position of the
vehicle within such markings, in order to make
sure that the vehicle remains inside the lane. This
is an active system that will apply torque to the
steering wheel if it senses that the vehicle is
drifting out of the lane.
When one or both lane markings are detected
and the vehicle passes over one without a turn
signal being applied, the system will apply torque
to the steering wheel and a visual signal will be
displayed in the instrument cluster display. An
audible signal may also sound.
If the vehicle continues to go beyond the lane line
without any driver intervention, the surpassed
lane line (left or right) will light up on the
instrument cluster display to urge the driver to
bring the vehicle back inside the lane limits.
