Rear Back Up Camera Display
When enabled in the radio settings, active
guidelines are overlaid on the image to illustrate
the width of the vehicle and its projected backup
path based on the steering wheel position. A
dashed center line overlay indicates the center of
the vehicle to assist with parking. Different
colored zones indicate the distance to the rear of
the vehicle. The following table shows the
approximate distances for each zone: Messages On The Display
If the trunk lid is lifted, the camera will not detect
any obstacle behind the vehicle. The display will
show a dedicated warning message.
Make sure the trunk lid is closed by pushing next
to the lock until it clicks.
Important Notes
Ice, snow or mud on the surface of the camera
may reduce its sensitivity. It is important to
keep the camera surface clean, and free from
debris.
When parking, be aware of obstacles that may
be above or under the camera range.
REFUELING THE VEHICLE
Before refueling, make sure that the fuel type is
correct.
Also, stop the engine before refueling.

NOTE:
An inefficient catalytic converter leads to harmful
exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air pollu
-
tion.
AreaDistance From The Rear
Of The Vehicle
Red 0–11.8 inches
(0–30 cm)
Yellow 11.8 inches to
3.3 feet (30 cm–1 m)
Green 3.3 feet or more
(1 m or more)
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using the Rear Back Up Camera. 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!
To avoid vehicle damage, Rear Back Up
Camera should only be used as a parking
aid. The Rear Back Up Camera is unable to
view every obstacle or object in your drive
path.
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must
be driven slowly when using the Rear Back
Up Camera to be able to stop in time when
an obstacle is seen. It is recommended that
the driver look frequently over his/her
shoulder when using the Rear Back Up
Camera.
CAUTION!
Never introduce leaded fuel to the tank, even
in small amounts in an emergency, as this
would damage the catalytic converter beyond
repair.
CAUTION!

Rear Sensor Location
While driving, the system monitors the detection
zone in three different situations:
When you are being overtaken by a vehicle;
When you are overtaking a vehicle;
When a vehicle approaches from the side;
to check if it is necessary to intervene in order to
keep the vehicle inside the lane on both sides.

NOTE:
The system does not signal the presence of fixed
objects (e.g. safety barriers, poles, walls, etc.).
However, in some circumstances, the system
may activate in the presence of these objects.
This is normal and does not indicate a system
malfunction.
The system does not warn the driver about the
presence of cars coming from the opposite direc -
tion, in the adjacent lanes.
Activation/Deactivation
The system can be activated/deactivated using
the “Driver Assistance” menu in the radio system.
Select signal type, strength levels and sensitivity.

NOTE:
Vehicles with an active system will display the
following screen, on the radio system.
ABSA Menu Screen
System Intervention
The system intervenes in the following conditions:
the direction indicators have been turned on;
there is a vehicle in the adjacent lane on the
same side of the direction indicator (blind spot
area);
lane lines are not correctly detected;
the driver tries to change lanes intentionally.
If the system detects the presence of a vehicle in
the rear side blind spots of the car, it applies a
torque on the steering wheel (if it has been set
through the “Settings” menu of the radio system),
in order to warn the driver of the need to keep the
car inside the lane and thus avoid collisions with
other vehicles.
The application of torque and vibration is
however only available with car speed between
37 mph (60 km/h) and 110 mph (180 km/h). The application of torque, as well as of the
vibration, is suppressed/inhibited if:
The torque given by the driver of the steering
wheel is high
Lateral acceleration is high
The trailer is not connected to the correct
control module
At least one hand is not detected on the
steering wheel for longer than a specific time
The turn signal is turned off

NOTE:
The steering wheel torque is not applied if the
system is unable to detect a lane and if the direc
-
tion indicator for the appropriate side has not
been switched on.
The steering wheel detects the presence of the
driver’s hands by a capacitive sensor installed in
the steering wheel and by the applied torque
measured on the steering column.
System Availability
Aggressive driving of the car, or driving on the
median lines, will prevent the correct operation of
the system.
In case of intervention of the stability and braking
systems (FCW, ESC, ABS) they will prevent the
system from operating.
Lane change will disable the system for a certain
period of time.
The road must also comply with some specific
characteristics, such as:
Maximum/minimum lane width.
Clearly identified and defined double yellow
lines and, for a limited period of time, a lane
with a single demarcation line.
