Push the lever upward to the MIST position and
release for a single wiping cycle.

NOTE:
The Mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed
on the windshield. The wash function must be
used in order to spray the windshield with washer
fluid.
For information on wiper care and replacement,
see

Ú
page 193.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS
This feature senses rain or snowfall on the
windshield and automatically activates the
wipers. The Rain Sensor is located behind the
interior rearview mirror.
Rain Sensor Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to one of
four settings to activate this feature.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies
progressively from wiper still (no stroke) when the
windshield is dry, to wiper at continuous speed
(fast operation) with intense rain.
Activation
Rotating the wiper switch to the Low Sensitivity
Rain Sensing position (4) or High Sensitivity Rain
Sensing position (3) activates the rain sensor.
The activation of the rain sensor system is done
by tapping the wiper stalk upwards while the
switch is in the Low Sensitivity Rain Sensing
position (4) or High Sensitivity Rain Sensing
position (3).
The variation in sensitivity during rain sensor
operation is also signaled by a stroke of the wiper.
If the windshield washer is used with the rain
sensor activated, the normal washing cycle is
performed, and then the rain sensor resumes its
normal automatic operation.

NOTE:

Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
With the windshield wiper lever in the Low
Sensitivity Rain Sensing position (4) or High
Sensitivity Rain Sensing position (3), wiping
operates automatically and is disabled when
the outside temperature is below 32°F (0°C).
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the wind
-
shield could lead to a collision. You might not
see other vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid
sudden icing of the windshield during freezing
weather, warm the windshield with the
defroster before and during windshield washer
use.

OPERATING MODE
Stopping the Engine
With vehicle at a standstill and brake pedal
pressed, the engine switches off if the gear
selector is in a position other than REVERSE (R).
The system does not operate when the gear
selector is in REVERSE (R), in order to make
parking maneuvers easier.
In the event of stops uphill, engine switching off is
disabled to make the “Hill Start Assist” function
available (works only with running engine).

NOTE:
The engine can only be automatically stopped
after having run at about 6 mph (10 km/h). After
an automatic restart, the vehicle only needs to
exceed a speed of 0.3 mph (0.5 km/h) to stop the
engine.
Engine stopping is signaled by the symbol
lighting up on the instrument cluster display.
Restarting the Engine
To restart the engine, release the brake pedal or
turn the steering wheel slightly (if equipped).
With the brake pressed and the transmission in
automatic mode DRIVE (D), the engine will restart
by shifting to REVERSE (R), to PARK (P) or to
“AutoStick”.
With the brake pressed while the gear selector is
in “AutoStick” mode, the engine will restart by
shifting to PARK (P) or by moving the selector
to + or -.
SYSTEM MANUAL ACTIVATION/

push the button located in the control panel on
the left of the steering wheel.
Stop/Start Button
System Activation
The activation of the system is indicated by the symbol lighting up on the display. In this
condition, the light on the button is off.
System Deactivation
A message will appear on the display when the
system is deactivated. In this condition, the light
on the button is on.

NOTE:
Each time the engine is started, the system is
activated regardless of where it was when it was
previously switched off.
POSSIBLE REASONS THE ENGINE DOES
N
OT AUTOSTOP
For higher comfort and increased safety, and to
reduce emissions, there are certain conditions
where the engine will not autostop despite the
system being active, such as:
Engine still cold.
Especially cold outside temperature.
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Driver's door not shut.
Driver's seat belt not fastened.
Reverse gear engaged (e.g. for parking
maneuvers).
With the automatic climate control active, an
adequate cabin heating or cooling comfort has
not been reached or with MAX-DEF function
active.
During the first period of use, to initialize the
system.
Steering angle beyond threshold.
ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
Due to comfort, emission control and safety
reasons, the engine can restart automatically
without any action by the driver, under special
conditions, such as:
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Vehicle moving (e.g. when driving on roads
with a grade).
Engine stopping by the Stop/Start system for
more than approximately three minutes.
With the automatic climate control active, an
adjustment in cabin heating or cooling is made
or with MAX-DEF function active.

INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The system status can always be viewed through
the instrument cluster display.
The instrument cluster display shows only the
speed limit indications and consists of the
following steps:
The new speed limit recognized by the system,
which is indicated by means of a
predetermined color. The road sign indicating
the end of the speed limit or a “Road Sign Not
Detected” message may appear in this zone.
After a predetermined distance, the previously
displayed road sign changes color to inform
the driver that the speed limit provided may no
longer be valid.1 — Traffic Sign Recognized
INTELLIGENT SPEED
CONTROL (ISC) SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Intelligent Speed Control (ISC) system is
always paired with the Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) system. The ISC system suggests an
automatic speed adjustment to the driver based
on the speed limit for the road being traveled. The
driver can decide whether to accept or reject the
automatic speed adjustment, using the switch on
the steering wheel.
If the speed limit is exceeded according to the
road signs or traffic conditions, a dedicated
graphic message is displayed on the instrument
panel display. RES/SET Switch
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death:
Always remain alert and be ready to take
control of the vehicle in the event that the
TJA system disables.
Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel when the TJA system is activated.
Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles
and pay attention to traffic conditions.
CAUTION!
Functionality may be limited or the system
may not work if the sensor is obstructed.
The system may have limited operation or
not work at all in weather conditions such as
heavy rain, hail, thick fog, and low
temperatures. Strong light contrasts can
influence the recognition capability of the
sensor.
The area surrounding the sensor must not be
covered with stickers or any other object.
Do not tamper or perform any operations in
the area of the windshield glass directly
surrounding the sensor.
Clean foreign matters such as bird
droppings, insects, snow or ice on the
windshield. Use specific detergents and
clean cloths to avoid scratching the
windshield.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
(TPMS)
The vehicle is equipped with a TPMS that sends
the inflation pressure information of each tire to
the control unit, and will signal the driver in the
event of insufficient tire pressure.
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel
rim mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire
pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel
as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure
readings to the receiver module.
Tire pressure will vary with temperature by
approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F
(6.5°C). This means that when the outside
temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
also decrease. Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has
not been driven for at least three hours, or driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three hour
period. The cold tire inflation pressure must not
exceed the maximum inflation pressure molded
into the tire sidewall. The tire pressure will also
increase as the vehicle is driven. This is normal,
and there should be no adjustment for this
increased pressure. See

Ú
page 206 for
information on how to properly inflate the
vehicle’s tires.
The TPMS will signal the driver if pressure falls
below the warning limit for any reason, including
the effects of low temperature and normal loss of
pressure from the tire.
The TPMS will stop indicating insufficient tire
pressure when pressure is equal to or greater
than the prescribed cold inflation level.
Therefore, if insufficient tire pressure is indicated by the ( ) warning light displaying in the
instrument cluster, increase the inflation
pressure up to the prescribed cold inflation value.
The system will automatically update, and the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
will turn off once the system receives the updated
tire pressures. The vehicle may need to be driven
for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this information.

NOTE:
The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tire pressure
drops (e.g. if a tire bursts). In this case, proceed
with caution and avoid abrupt steering.
Operating Example
For example, your vehicle may have a
recommended cold (parked for more than three
hours) placard pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If
the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C), and the
measured tire pressure is 28 psi (193 kPa), a
temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease
the tire pressure to approximately 24 psi
(165 kPa). This tire pressure is low enough to turn
on the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light. Driving the vehicle may cause the tire
pressure to rise to approximately 28 psi
(193 kPa), but the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light will still be on. In this
situation, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will turn off only after the tires are
inflated to the vehicle’s recommended cold
placard pressure value.
Insufficient Tire Pressure Indication
If an insufficient pressure value is detected on
one or more tires, the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light in the instrument cluster
will display alongside the dedicated messages,
the system will highlight the tire or tires with
insufficient pressure graphically, and an acoustic
signal will be emitted.
CAUTION!

The TPMS has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the
tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor
damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type,
and/or style. The TPMS sensor is not
designed for use on aftermarket wheels and
may contribute to a poor overall system
performance or sensor damage. Customers
are encouraged to use Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) wheels to ensure proper
TPMS feature operation.

Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using an
aftermarket tire sealant it is recommended
that you take your vehicle to an authorized
dealer to have your sensor function checked.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure
always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will
prevent moisture and dirt from entering the
valve stem, which could damage the TPMS
sensor.
