page 84.
If you are still able to drive the vehicle (park brake
is not engaged), drive to the nearest authorized
dealer and remember, when executing any
maneuvers/commands, that the electric park
brake is not operational.
Engine Immobilizer Failure/Break-In
Attempt
Engine Immobilizer System Failure The
telltale will illuminate to report a failure
of the Engine Immobilizer system.
Break-In Attempt The telltale will illuminate when
the ignition is cycled to ON position, to indicate a
possible break-in attempt detected by the alarm
system.

illuminate when the engine is started and the
electronic key is not recognized by the system.
WARNING!
If a failure is present with sharp braking, the
rear wheels may lock and the vehicle may

Camera Activation/Deactivation
To activate the Rear Back Up Camera features,
select “Driver Assistance” from the Main Menu of
the radio system. Under Driver Assistance, Rear
Back Up Camera features can be selected:
View
Camera Delay
Camera Guidelines
Selecting “View” will activate the camera view on
the display.
Selecting “Camera Delay” will allow the camera
view to remain on the display shortly after the
vehicle is no longer in REVERSE, followed by the
previously active screen.
Selecting “Camera Guidelines” will activate the
display of the dynamic guidelines that indicate
the route of the vehicle.
When the vehicle is in REVERSE, the radio system
display will show the area behind the vehicle, as
seen by the Rear Back Up Camera, along with a
warning message.
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 in rear parking maneuvers or
trailer hitch alignment. 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 liftgate is opened, the camera will not detect
any obstacle behind the vehicle. The display will
show a dedicated warning message.
Make sure the liftgate 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 below the camera range.
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.

SAFETY

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.
