LIMITED SYSTEM AVAILABILITY/
O
PERATION
System Availability
External factors and conditions may affect the
proper operation of HAS, such as:
Narrow, winding, curvy streets
Poor visibility (due to heavy rain, snow, fog,
etc.)
Front lights of oncoming vehicles or direct
sunlight or shade
Damage or obstructions caused by mud, ice,
snow, etc.
Bumper damaged or not aligned
Interference with other equipment that causes
electromagnetic waves
Presence of roadwork/road construction sites
If the indications given by the navigation
system (if any) of the radio system are not yet
ready and/or if the navigation system is
recalculating the route
System Limited Operation
HAS may have limited or reduced functionality
when one of the following conditions occur:
Lane markings are not clear or in conditions of
poor visibility (e.g. in heavy rain, snow, fog,
etc.)
Either the camera or radar are damaged,
covered, or obstructed (e.g. by mud, ice, snow,
etc.)
When driving on hills or roads with narrow
bends
Near highway toll booths
When the highway entrance or exit is wider
than 20 ft (6 m)
If the camera is exposed to glare caused by
reflections or direct sunlight
If the navigation system information is
unavailable or being recalculated
NOTE:
If the vehicle approaches a bend that is too
narrow with respect to the current speed, HAS
will disable.
If damage to the windshield occurs, have the
windshield replaced by an authorized dealer as
soon as possible.
TRAFFIC JAM ASSIST (TJA)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) system can be
activated on all road types. The system uses a
camera to detect lane markings and keep the
vehicle in the center of the lane. When the system is unable to detect lane
markings, it will still operate using surrounding
traffic. This can occur in congested traffic
scenarios, when the vehicles ahead or
surroundings obstruct the visibility of the lane
markings. When the speed is below 12 mph
(20 km/h), the system can use a lock-on strategy
that allows the vehicle to automatically follow the
vehicle ahead.
The TJA system combines Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) functions with Lane Departure Warning
functions to maintain vehicle speed and steering
wheel behavior.
NOTE:
Do not use the TJA system while driving in urban
areas.
TO ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE
To activate the system, push the button on the
left side of the steering wheel.
To deactivate the system, push the button again.
Traffic Jam Assist Button
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death:
Always remain alert and be ready to take
control of the vehicle in the event that HAS
disables.
Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel when HAS is activated.
Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles
and pay attention to traffic conditions.

STARTING AND OPERATING
112
The bumper is damaged or misaligned
Interference with other equipment causes
electromagnetic waves
Construction sites
If the indications given by the navigation
system of the radio system are not yet ready or
if the system is recalculating
System Limited Operation
The TJA system may have limited or reduced
functionality when one of the following conditions
occurs:
Lane boundaries are not clear or in conditions
of poor visibility (e.g. in heavy rain, snow, fog,
etc.)
Either the camera or radar are damaged,
covered, or obstructed (e.g. by mud, ice, snow,
etc.)
When driving on hills or narrow bends
Near highway toll booths
When the highway entrance or exit is more
than 20 ft (6 m) wide
If the camera is exposed to glare from
reflections or direct sunlight
NOTE:
If damage to the windshield occurs, have the
windshield replaced by an authorized dealer
as soon as possible.
If the vehicle approaches a bend that is too
narrow with respect to the current speed, the
TJA system will deactivate.
TRAFFIC SIGN
RECOGNITION (TSR)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system uses a
camera mounted on the windshield to detect
recognizable road signs such as:
Speed limits
Signs indicating the end of the situations
indicated above If the camera does not detect valid speed limits,
the radio system navigation system may suggest
unregulated speed limits.
The system always checks the traffic signs
indicating the current speed limit signs. The
system is able to recognize and display up to two
different road signs in the instrument cluster
display.
Depending on the unit of measurement (km or
mph) set through the Unit of Measurement menu
in the radio system, the TSR system will automat
-
ically show the indication of the road sign in the
unit of measurements selected in the instrument
cluster display.
TO ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE
The TSR system can be activated/deactivated in
the radio system in the Driver Assistance menu.
The system activation is signaled by road signs
shown on the instrument cluster display.
NOTE:
By selecting “Blinking”, the driver can activate
a warning to display when the speed exceeds
the limit indicated by the TSR system. The
speed road sign on the instrument cluster
display will blink until the vehicle speed drops
below the displayed limit.
Selecting “Offset” will set the speed at which
“Blinking” is activated up to a maximum of
6 mph (10 km/h) above the limit detected by the system.
If no speed limit signs are found, the system
will revert to the speed limit signs that are
stored in the NAV system.
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death:
Always remain alert and be ready to take
control of the car 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.
The TJA system should only be used as a
driving aid. The driver must always pay
attention to their surroundings when the
system is operating and be ready to take
control of the vehicle at any time.
Do not place any objects on the steering
wheel (e.g. steering wheel covers) which
could interfere with the hand detection
sensor on the steering wheel.
