IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave the
device activated when it is not used.
There is a risk of inadvertently activating
it and losing control of the vehicle due to
unexpected excessive speed.
Pausing / Deactivating
With the device enabled (speed not set),
press the
button.
With the device activated (speed set),
press the
button to enter the Paused
state. The display shows the white icon
with the speed in brackets. Press the
button again to deactivate the device
completely.
SETTING THE DESIRED SPEED
The speed can be set from a minimum of
30 km/h (or 20 mph for markets with
instrument panels in mph) to a maximum
of 180 km/h (or 110 mph for markets
with instrument panels in mph).
When the car reaches the desired speed,
raise/lower the SET fig. 105 switch and
release it to activate the device. When
the accelerator is released, the vehicle
will keep the selected speed
automaticallyWhile the accelerator pedal is pressed:
the device will not be able to control
the distance between the vehicle and the
one ahead. In this case the speed will be
determined only by the position of the
accelerator pedal.
The device will return to normal
operation as soon as the accelerator
pedal is released.
The systemcannotbe set:
when pressing the brake pedal;
when the brakes are overheated;
when the electric parking brake has
been operated;
when either P (park), R (reverse) or N
(neutral) is engaged;
when the engine rpm is above a
maximum threshold;
when the vehicle speed is not within
the settable speed range;
when the ESC (or ABS or other
stability control systems) are operatingor have just operated;
when the ESC system is off;
when the Forward Collision Warning
Plus system (where provided) is braking
automatically;
in the event of device failure;
when the engine is off;
in case of obstruction of the radar
sensor (in this case the bumper area
where it is located must be cleaned).
In case of system set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system with times that may vary
according to the conditions.
IMPORTANT The device will not be
deactivated when speeds higher than
those set are reached by pressing the
accelerator pedal (180 km/h or 110 mph,
the latter for instrument panels set to
miles per hour). In these conditions, the
device may not work correctly and it is
advisable to deactivate it.
CHANGING SPEED
Speed increase
Once the device has been activated, you
can increase the speed by lifting the SET
switch. Each time it is operated, the
speed increases by 1 mph (1 km/h).
By holding the button up, the set speed
will increase in steps of 6 mph (10 km/h)

of the vehicle. Failure to comply with
these precautions may cause serious
accidents and fatal injuries.
SETTING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN
VEHICLES
The distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead may be set to 1 bar
(short), 2 bars (medium), 3 bars (long),
4 bars (maximum) fig. 107.
The distances from the vehicle ahead are
proportional to speed.
The interval of time with respect to the
vehicle ahead remains constant and
varies from 1 second (for the short
distance 1-bar setting) to 2 seconds (for
the maximum distance 4-bar setting).
The set distance is shown on the display
by a dedicated icon.
The setting is 4 (maximum) the first time
the device is used. After the distance hasbeen modified by the driver, the new
distance will be stored also after the
system is deactivated and reactivated.
To decrease the distance
Press and release the fig. 108 button to
decrease the distance setting. The
distance setting decreases by one bar
(shorter) every time the button is
pressed.
The set speed is held if there are no
vehicles ahead. Once the shortest
distance has been reached, a further
press of the button will set the longest
distance.
If a slower car is detected in the same
lane, the car icon on the display turns
from grey to white. The device
automatically adjusts the car’s speed to
keep the set distance, independently of
the set speed.
The vehicle holds the set distance until:
the vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed higher than the set speed;
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane or
the detection field of the Active Cruise
Control device sensor;
the distance setting is changed;
the Active Cruise Control device is
deactivated/paused.
IMPORTANT The maximum breaking
applied by the device is limited. The
driver may apply the brakes in all cases if
needed.
IMPORTANT If the device predicts that
the braking level is insufficient to hold
the set distance, either “BRAKE!” or a
dedicated message is displayed to warn
the driver of approaching the vehicle
ahead. An acoustic signal is also emitted.
In this case, it is advisable to brake
immediately as necessary to hold a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
IMPORTANT The driver is responsible for
ensuring that there are no pedestrians,
other vehicles or objectives along the
direction of the vehicle. Failure to comply
with these precautions may cause
serious accidents and injuries.
IMPORTANT The driver is fully
responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.

“STOP AND GO” STRATEGY
The “Stop and Go” operating strategy
allows you to maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead until the car has
completely stopped. It will also restart
the car automatically if the vehicle ahead
moves off within two seconds, otherwise
it is necessary to press the accelerator
pedal or the RES button to restart.
DEACTIVATION
The device is deactivated and the set
speed is cancelled if:
if thebutton on the Active Cruise
Control is pressed (with the device
enabled or paused);
the ignition device is in the STOP
position;
RACE mode is activated.
The device is cancelled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
when the device is paused (see the
“Activating / Deactivating Active Cruise
Control” paragraph);
when the conditions shown in the
“Setting the desired speed” paragraph
occur;
SYSTEM LIMITED OPERATION
WARNING
If the dedicated message is shown on the
display, a condition limiting the system
operation may have occurred.
The possible reasons of this limitationare something blocking the camera view
or a fault. If an obstruction is signalled,
clean the area of the windscreen
indicated in fig. 102 and check that the
message has disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to normal
and complete operation.
Should the fault persist, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
PRECAUTIONS WHILE DRIVING
The device may not work correctly in
some driving conditions (see below): the
driver must control the car at all times.
Towing a trailer
Use of the device is not recommended
while towing a trailer.
VEHICLE not aligned
The device may not detect a vehicle
travelling on the same lane but which is
not aligned along the same direction of
travel or a vehicle which is cutting in from
a side lane. Sufficient distance from the
vehicles ahead may not be guaranteed in
these cases.
The non-aligned vehicle can weave in and
out of the driving direction causing the
vehicle to brake or accelerate
unexpectedly.Steering and bends
When cornering with the device set, it
could limit speed and acceleration to
guarantee vehicle stability even if no
vehicles are detected ahead. When
leaving the bend, the device resets the
previously set speed.
IMPORTANT In case of narrow curves,
the performance of the device could be
limited. In this case, it is advisable to
deactivate the device. Moreover,
remember that the device only limits the
speed DURING a bend and not BEFORE
it, so always take great care.
Using the device on gradient
When driving on roads with variable
gradient, the device may not detect the
presence of a vehicle on the lane. Device
performance could be limited according
to speed, load, traffic conditions and
gradient steepness.
Lane change
The device may not detect the presence
of a vehicle until it is fully in your lane. In
this case, sufficient distance from the
vehicle which is changing lane may not be
guaranteed: it is advisable to pay the
utmost attention at all times and be
always ready to press the brakes if
needed.
126
STARTING AND DRIVING

Small cars
Some narrow cars (e.g. bicycles and
motorcycles) travelling near the outer
edges of the lane or which enter the lane
from kerbside are not detected until they
are fully in the lane.
Sufficient distance from the cars ahead
may not be guaranteed in these cases.
Stationary objects and vehicles
The device cannot detect the presence of
stationary vehicles or objects. For
example, the device will not operate if
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane and a
vehicle ahead of that one is standing on
the lane. Pay the utmost attention at all
times and be always ready to press the
brakes if needed.
Objects and cars moving in opposite or
crosswise direction
The device cannot detect the presence of
objects or vehicles travelling in opposite
or at right-angles and consequently will
not be operated.
WARNING
117)Pay the utmost attention while driving
at all times and be always ready to press the
brakes if needed.118)The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while driving.
The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the
traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
119)The device is not activated in presence
of pedestrians, oncoming vehicles in the
opposite direction of travel or moving in the
crosswise direction and stationary objects
(e.g. a vehicle standing in a queue or a broken
down vehicle).
120)The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions, and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
121)The device does not always fully
recognise complex driving conditions that
could cause it to determine the safe distance
to be held incorrectly or not at all.
122)The device cannot apply the maximum
braking force: the car will not be stopped
completely.
IMPORTANT
41)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such as:
heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
42)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with adhesives,
auxiliary headlights or any other object.
43)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front geometry,
tyre change, or a heavier load than the
standard load of the vehicle.44)Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may alter
the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to an Alfa
Romeo Dealership for any operation of this
type.
45)Do not tamper with nor carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen. In the event of a
sensor failure, contact an Alfa Romeo

46)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical connector.
47)Be careful in the case of repairs and new
paintings in the area around the sensor
(panel covering the sensor on the left side of
the bumper). In the event of a frontal impact
the sensor may automatically deactivate
and display a warning to indicate that the
sensor needs to be repaired. Even without a
malfunction warning, deactivate the system
operation if you think that the position of the
radar sensor has changed (e.g. due to
low-speed frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to an Alfa
Romeo Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
51) 52) 53) 54) 55) 56)
The Lane Departure Warning system
makes use of a camera located on the
windscreen to detect the lane limits and
calculate the position of the vehicle
within such limits, in order to make sure
that it remains inside the lane.
When one or both lane limits are
detected and the vehicle passes over one
without the driver's say-so (direction
indicator not turned on), the system
emits an acoustic signal.
If the vehicle continues to go beyond the
line of the lane without any intervention
from the driver, the surpassed line will
light up on the display (left or right) to
urge the driver to bring the vehicle back
into the limits of the lane.
SYSTEM ON/OFF
The system is activated/deactivated by
pressing the button fig. 112
Each time the engine is started, the
system maintains the operating mode
that was selected when it was previously
switched off.Activation conditions
Once switched on, the system becomes
active only if the following conditions are
met:
the car speed is higher than 37 mph
(the system is deactivated at speeds
equal to or higher than 110 mph –
180 km/h);
the lane limit lines are visible at least
on one side;
there are suitable visibility conditions;
the road is straight or with wide radius
bends;
a suitable distance is kept from the
vehicle in front;
the direction indicator (for leaving the
lane) is not active.
IMPORTANT
51)Projecting loads on the roof of the
vehicle may interfere with the correct
operation of the camera. Before starting
make sure the load is correctly positioned, in
