CBC (City Brake
Control) SYSTEM -
"Collision Mitigation"
(for versions/markets, where provided)
70) 71) 72) 73) 74)
28) 29) 30) 31) 32) 33) 34)This is a driving assistance system,
which includes a laser sensor, located
in the upper part of the windscreen
fig. 51, that can detect the presence of
nearby cars in front of the vehicle and,
in the case of an imminent collision,
intervenes automatically, braking the
vehicle to prevent the impact or
mitigate its effects.
The system only works if:
❒the ignition key is at MAR;
❒the vehicle speed is between 5 and
30 km/h;
❒the front seat belts are fastened.Anyway, the system can be deactivated
(then reactivated) through the Setup
Menu on the display.
The system intervenes if there is risk of
imminent collision and the driver does
not press the brake pedal promptly.
If the system detects that the vehicle
ahead could be hit, it may prepare the
vehicle to a possible emergency
braking.
If the driver does not carry out any
action to prevent the collision, the
system may automatically slow down
the vehicle, in order to prepare it to
a possible impact.
When there is risk of impact, if the
action on the brake pedal by the driver
is not sufficient, the system may
intervene in order to improve
the reaction of the braking system,
therefore reducing vehicle speed
further.
When driving uphill on a steep slope,
the system may intervene, activating
the braking system.
Versions equipped with Stop/Start
system: at the end of the automatic
braking, the Stop/Start system will
activate as described in the "Stop/Start
system" paragraph of the "Starting
and driving" chapter.Versions equipped with manual
gearbox: at the end of the automatic
braking the engine may stall and turn
off, unless the driver presses the clutch
pedal.
Versions equipped with "Dualogic"
gearbox(for versions/markets, where
provided): at the end of braking the last
gear stored remains engaged.
IMPORTANT Both on versions
equipped with manual gearbox and on
those with "Dualogic" gearbox (for
versions/markets, where provided),
after the vehicle is stopped the brake
calipers may be stuck for about 2
seconds for safety reasons. Make sure
you press the brake pedal if the vehicle
moves slightly forwards.
IMPORTANT The system doesNOT
activate when reverse is engaged. The
system doesNOTactivate if the front
seat belts are not fastened.
Engagement/disengagement
The system can be deactivated (then
reactivated) through the Setup Menu on
the display.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Let’s get to the "heart" of the vehicle:
seeing how you can exploit all of its
potential to the full.
We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any
situation, so that it can be a welcome
companion, with our comfort and
our wallets in mind.STARTING THE ENGINE ................. 92

OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
Sensor operation is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electric
cable plug is fitted in the vehicle's
tow hook socket. The sensors are
automatically reactivated when the
trailer's cable plug is removed.
IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above
or under the sensor.
Objects close to the vehicle are not
detected under certain circumstances
and could therefore cause damage
to the vehicle or be damaged.
The following conditions may influence
the performance of the parking
assistance system:
❒the presence of ice, snow, mud or
multiple layers of paint on the surface of
the sensor may reduce its sensitivity
and the system performance;
❒mechanical interference (e.g. washing
the vehicle, rain, strong wind, hail) may
cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo
interference");
97
❒the presence of ultrasonic systems
(e.g. pneumatic brake systems of
trucks or pneumatic drills) near the
vehicle could alter the signals sent to
the sensor;
❒the variation in sensor position,
caused by variation in ride (due
to suspension or shock absorber wear),
changing tyres, overloaded vehicle, or
tuning that lowers the vehicle, for
example, may affect parking sensor
system performance;
❒the presence of a tow hook without
trailer interferes with the correct
operation of the parking sensors. If a
fixed tow hook is installed, the sensors
cannot be used. If the customer installs
a removable tow hook, this must
always be disconnected from
the crossmember whenever the trailer
is not attached to prevent the activation
of the sensors.
WARNING
127)The responsibility for parking and
other dangerous manoeuvres always and
in every case lies with the driver. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The parking sensors are used
to assist the driver, who must never allow
his attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds.
WARNING
45)The sensors must be clean of mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of vehicle
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away.
