(HAS) — IF EQUIPPED
The Highway Assist System (HAS) is a driving
assistance system that is only available when
driving on highways. The system operates up to
speeds of 90 mph (145 km/h) when horizontal
signs are detected.
The system uses information from the front
camera and radar to help keep the vehicle in the
center of the lane and at a constant speed.
HAS combines Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
functions with lane centering logic to control the
trajectory of the vehicle. HAS requires the driver’s
hands to remain on the steering wheel.
Once HAS is activated, a dedicated screen will
appear on the instrument cluster display.
TO ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE

HILL DESCENT CONTROL (HDC)
S
YSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The HDC function is an integral part of the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system, keeping
the vehicle at a constant speed while descending
a hill by actively controlling the brakes.
HDC aims to create vehicle stability and safer
driving in various situations, including poor grip
conditions and steep descents.
The system has three different modes:
Off: the system is deactivated
Enabled: the system is enabled and ready to
intervene when the activation conditions are
met
Active: the system actively controls the vehicle
speed Enabling The System
To enable the system, push the HDC switch
located on the steering wheel.
HDC Switch
The system is enabled if the car speed is below
20 mph (30 km/h). The system stays enabled
until the car speed reaches 37 mph (60 km/h),
the system is disabled at speeds above 37 mph
(60 km/h).
Activation of the HDC system is indicated by the
white icon appearing in the instrument cluster
display.
HDC Symbol Activation Of The System
Once enabled, the HDC system will activate
automatically if the vehicle is driven on a downhill
slope with sufficient gradient, greater than 8%.
The speed set for the HDC system can be
adjusted using the SET switch located on the
steering wheel.
HDC Speed SET Switch
Once the desired speed has been reached,
release the SET switch and the HDC system will
maintain the set speed. After set speed is
established, the HDC system will automatically
brake to keep the vehicle at the set speed if the
accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle gets
close to the set speed.
It is possible to reduce the set speed with the
brake pedal. When the pedal is released, the
system will adjust the set speed to the new
current speed.
Vehicle modifications, or failure to properly
maintain your vehicle, may change the
handling characteristics of your vehicle, and
may negatively affect the performance of the
ESC system. Changes to the steering system,
suspension, braking system, tire type and
size or wheel size may adversely affect ESC
performance. Improperly inflated and
unevenly worn tires may also degrade ESC
performance. Any vehicle modification or
poor vehicle maintenance that reduces the
effectiveness of the ESC system can
increase the risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
WARNING!

(Continued)
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) System
The Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) system
assists the driver during reverse maneuvers in
the case of reduced visibility.
The RCP system monitors the rear detection areas
on both sides of the vehicle to detect objects
moving toward the sides of the vehicle, with a
minimum speed between approximately 1 mph
(1 km/h) and 2 mph (3 km/h) and objects moving
at a maximum speed of 21 mph (35 km/h), in
areas such as parking lots.
The system activation is signaled to the driver by
an audible warning.
NOTE:
If the sensors are covered by objects or
vehicles, the system may not work as intended.
For the system to operate correctly, the rear
fascia/bumper area where the radar sensors
are located must stay free from snow, ice and
dirt gathered from the road surface.
Do not cover the rear fascia/bumper area
where the radar sensors are located with any
object (e.g. adhesives, bike rack, etc.). Operating Mode
The system may be activated/deactivated via the
radio system. To access the function, select the
following items on the main menu in sequence:
1. “Driving Assistance”
2. “Blind Spot Alert”
“Blind Spot Alert”, “Visual” Mode
When the system is enabled, the warning light
within the door mirror on the side of the detected
object illuminates.
The visual warning on the mirror will blink if the
driver activates the turn signals, indicating a lane
change.
The warning light will be constant if the driver
stays in the same lane.
“Blind Spot Alert” Function Deactivation
When the system is deactivated (“Blind Spot
Alert” mode off), the BSM or RCP systems will not
emit an audible or a visual warning.
The BSM system will store the operating mode
that was active when the engine was stopped.
Each time the engine is started, the operating
mode stored previously will be recalled and used

ACTIVE BLIND SPOT ASSIST (ABSA)
S
YSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The ABSA system is to help avoid/limit lateral
collisions with cars coming from adjacent lanes
changing the vehicle’s trajectory in order to try to
keep it in the detected lane. The system warns the driver about the presence
of other vehicles in the detection area by illumi
-
nating the warning light located within the door
mirror on the side in which the other vehicle was
detected and by means of an acoustic signal
and/or vibration on the steering wheel and/or
counter-steering torque on the steering wheel (if
the respective item on the “Driver Assistance”
menu is set up and then “Safety” is selected on
the radio system).
When the engine is started, the warning light
illuminates briefly to signal the driver that the
system is active (the warning light comes on even
if the system is activated through the radio
system menu).
ABSA Indicator Light
WARNING!
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) is not a back
up aid system. It is intended to be used to help
a driver detect an oncoming vehicle in a park -
ing lot situation. Drivers must be careful when
backing up, even when using RCP. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, look
behind you, and be sure to check for pedestri -
ans, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and
blind spots before backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING!
The accident risk persists despite the
application of torque to the steering wheel by
the ABSA system.
22_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 141

SAFETY
142
Sensors
The system uses radar sensors, located in the
rear fascia/bumper, to detect the presence of
vehicles (cars, trucks, motorbikes, etc.) in the
rear side blind spots of the car.
The sensors are activated when any forward gear
is engaged at a speed higher than about 6 mph
(10 km/h), or when REVERSE (R) is engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated when
the car is stationary and in PARK (P).
The detection area of the system covers about a
lane on both sides of the car around 10 ft
(3 meters).This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for about 20 ft (6 meters) towards the
rear part of the car.
When the sensors are active the system monitors
the detection areas on both sides of the car and
warns the driver about the possible presence of
cars in these areas.
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
object (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 turn signals have been activated;
there is a vehicle in the adjacent lane on the
same side of the turn signal (blind spot area);
lane lines are not correctly detected;
the driver tries to change lanes intentionally.
Applying a torque that corrects the steering
wheel alignment does not always prevent an
accident. It is always the driver's responsi -
bility to steer, brake or accelerate, especially
after the ABSA system warning or after the
steering wheel torque intervention. The
driver is responsible for ensuring that there
are no pedestrians, other vehicles or objects
along the direction of the vehicle. Failure to
comply with these precautions may cause
serious accidents and injuries. The driver is
fully responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.
In some cases, the system could apply an
improper torque to the steering wheel. This
application can be interrupted at any time by
turning the steering wheel in the opposite
direction.
