For the operation of the DAA, LDW, LKA, HAS,
TJA, ACC, ISC, or TSR systems, see
Ú
page 86.

NOTE:

When driving on two-way roads where there is
no lane dividing center line (e.g. on unpaved
roads), the use of the ABSA, HAS, TJA, and LKA
systems is strongly discouraged as the system
could detect the entire road as single-lane
dividing lines.

NOTE:

The driving assistance systems are designed
to aid in driving the car. The driver must always
maintain a sufficient level of attention to the
traffic and road conditions and control the
trajectory of the car.
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System — If
Equipped
The BSM system uses radar sensors, located
in the rear fascia/bumper, to detect the pres -
ence of other vehicles in the rear side blind
spots of your vehicle.
Rear Sensor Location The system warns the driver about the pres
-
ence of other vehicles in the detection area by
illuminating the warning light located within
the door mirror on the side in which the other
vehicle was detected. If equipped, an audible
chime will also be heard to alert the driver (if
option is selected within the radio system).
BSM Indicator Light
When the engine is started, the warning light
illuminates briefly to signal the driver that the
system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any forward
gear is engaged at a speed higher than
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or when
REVERSE is engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated when
the vehicle is stationary or the vehicle is in
PARK.
The detection area of the system covers
approximately one lane on both sides of the
vehicle, which is around 9 ft (3 m). This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for approximately 19 ft (6 m) towards
the rear part of the vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the system moni
-
tors the detection areas on both sides of the
vehicle and warns the driver about the
possible presence of vehicles in these areas.
While driving, the system monitors the detec -
tion 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 whether it is necessary to send a
signal to the driver on both sides.

NOTE:

The system does not alert the driver of the
presence of fixed objects (e.g. safety
barriers, poles, walls, etc.). However, in
some circumstances, the system may acti -
vate in the presence of these objects. This is
normal and does not indicate a system
malfunction.
The system does not alert the driver about
the presence of vehicles coming from the
opposite direction, in the adjacent lanes.
If a trailer is hitched to the car, the system
automatically deactivates.
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 150

151

NOTE:

For the system to operate properly, 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.).
If you wish to install a rear tow eye after
purchasing the vehicle, you will need to
deactivate the system via the radio system.
To access the function, select the following
items in sequence on the main menu:a. “Driver Assistance”
b. “Blind Spot Alert” Rear View
The system detects vehicles coming from the
rear part of your vehicle on both sides and
entering the rear detection area with a differ
-
ence in speed of less than 25 mph (40 km/h)
in relation to your vehicle.
Overtaking Vehicles
If another vehicle is overtaken slowly, with a
difference in speed of less than approximately
15 mph (25 km/h) and the vehicle stays in the
blind spot for approximately 1.5 seconds, the
warning light on the door mirror of the corre -
sponding side illuminates.
If the difference in speed between the two
vehicles is greater than approximately 15 mph
(25 km/h), the warning light does not illumi -
nate.
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.).
WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an
aid to help detect objects in the blind spot
zones. The BSM system is not designed to
detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the
BSM system, always check your vehicle’s
mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use
your turn signal before changing lanes.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury
or death.
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 parking 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 pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and blind
spots before backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.

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

page 268.
Active Blind Spot Assist (ABSA) System — 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 pres
-
ence of other vehicles in the detection area by
illuminating 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 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.
WARNING!
The accident risk persists despite the
application of torque to the steering wheel
by the ABSA system.
Applying a torque that corrects the
steering wheel alignment does not always
prevent an accident. It is always the
driver's responsibility to steer, brake or
accelerate, especially after the ABSA
system warning or after the steering wheel
torque intervention. The driver is respon
-
sible for ensuring that there are no pedes -
trians, 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 turning the steering wheel in the
opposite direction.
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 152

153

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 moni-
tors 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 detec
-
tion 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
direction, 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. System intervention
The system intervenes in the following condi
-
tions:
the direction indicators have been turned
on;
there is a vehicle in the adjacent lane on the
same side of the direction indicator (blind
spot area);
lane lines are not correctly detected;
the driver tries to change lanes intention -
ally.
If the system detects the presence of a vehicle
in the rear side blind spots of the car, it applies
a torque on the steering wheel (if it has been
set through the “Settings” menu of the radio
system), in order to warn the driver of the need
to keep the car inside the lane and thus avoid
collisions with other vehicles.
The application of torque and vibration is
however only available with car speed
between 37 mph (60 km/h) and 110 mph
(180 km/h).
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 153

SAFETY

154

The application of torque, as well as of the
vibration, is suppressed/inhibited if:
The torque given by the driver of the
steering wheel is high
Lateral acceleration is high
The trailer is connected to the correct
control module
At least one hand is not detected on the
steering wheel for longer than a specific
time
The turn signal is turned off

NOTE:

The steering wheel torque is not applied if the
system is unable to detect a lane and if the
direction indicator for the appropriate side has
not been switched on.
The steering wheel detects the presence of
the driver’s hands by a capacitive sensor
installed in the steering wheel and by the
applied torque measured on the steering
column.
System availability
Aggressive driving of the car, or driving on the
median lines, will prevent the correct opera -
tion of the system. In case of intervention of the stability and
braking systems (FCW, ESC, ABS) they will
prevent the system from operating.
Lane change will disable the system for a
certain period of time.
The road must also comply with some specific
characteristics, such as:
Maximum/minimum lane width.
Clearly identified and defined double yellow
lines and, for a limited period of time, a lane
with a single demarcation line.

NOTE:

In some cases, for a limited period of time, the
system may be activated by a lane with a
single median line.
In cases of good road surface conditions, the
system could correctly recognize other types
of valid lane markings (e.g. road edges, side -
walks, etc.).
Hands Presence On The Steering Wheel
Detection
The system is able to detect the presence of
the driver’s hands on the steering wheel.
When the system does not detect the pres -
ence of hands on the steering wheel for 0 to 6
seconds, the following screen will be displayed
on the instrument cluster display. No acoustic
warning will be emitted in this case. Hand Presence On The Steering Wheel Not
Detected Display (Up To 6 Seconds)
When the system does not detect the pres -
ence of hands on the steering wheel from 6 to
15 seconds, the following screen will be
displayed on the instrument cluster display. A
short acoustic signal will sound if hands are
not detected on the steering wheel for 6 to
12 seconds. A continuous signal will sound if
hands are not detected on the steering wheel
for 12 to 15 seconds.
Hand Presence On The Steering Wheel Not Detected Display (6 To 15 Seconds)
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 154

155

After 15 seconds with the hands removed
from the steering wheel, the LKA system will
be deactivated and a dedicated message will
be shown on the instrument cluster display. A
short acoustic signal will sound in this case.
In any of the situations above where the hands
are removed from the steering wheel for more
than 6 seconds, it is necessary to reposition
the hands on the steering wheel.
Changing The System Sensitivity
The system's sensitivity can be set through the
radio system. Select the “Driver Assistance”
menu and then select “Comfort”. Sensitivity
“High” or “Low” can be selected.
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.
When the ABSA system is active, the RCP
system monitors the rear detection areas on
both sides of the vehicle to detect objects
moving towards the sides of the vehicle at a
minimum speed between 0.6 mph and 2 mph
(1 km/h and 3km/h) from objects moving at a
maximum speed of 22 mph (35 km/h).
These are generally occurrences that happen
in parking areas.
The system activation is signaled to the driver
by means of a visual and audible warning.

NOTE:

If the sensors are covered by objects or vehi-
cles, the system may not work as intended. Changing the system sensitivity
To change the sensitivity and the strength of
the torque intervention on the steering wheel,

Driver Attention Assist (DAA) System — If
Equipped
The Driver Attention Assist (DAA) system
detects when the driver is feeling fatigued and
warns the driver to pull over and take a break.
To Activate/Deactivate
The DAA system can be activated and deacti -
vated through the radio system by selecting
the following in order:
1. “Driver Assistance”
2. “Driver Attention Assist”
System Intervention
Using information from the front camera, the
system implements two operating logics:
The first operating logic takes the driving
style into account, observing the road and
detecting to what extent the driver can
continue driving with few lane crossing
events.
The second operating logic measures the
time spent behind the wheel with the
vehicle speed above 40 mph (60 km/h) and below 110 mph (180 km/h). If the“Standard” option is selected, in these
conditions, the “Dozy Driver” message may
appear after three hours of driving. If the
“Early” option is selected and these condi -
tions occur, the “Dozy Driver” message will
be displayed after two hours of driving.

NOTE:

If the conditions described above are not
detected continuously during the entire driving
period, the “Dozy Driver” message may be
displayed later than two or three hours. If the
driving style indicates that the driver is unable
to follow the road trajectory and respect the
horizontal lane markings, the red symbol will
appear on the instrument cluster display to
suggest that the driver should stop for a break.
An audible signal will also sound.
If the driver accepts the suggestion provided
by the system by pushing the MENU button on
the multifunction lever, the message will
WARNING!
The DAA System is an aid for driving and
does not relieve the driver of the
responsibility of driving the vehicle. If you
experience fatigue while driving, pull over
safely for a break without waiting for the
DAA to intervene. Only return to the road
when you are in the right physical and
mental condition to prevent endangering
yourself and other drivers.
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 155

159

The function of this system can also be tempo-
rarily reduced due to obstructions such as
mud, dirt or ice on the fascia/bumper. In such
cases, a dedicated message will be shown on
the display and the system will be deactivated.
This message can sometimes appear in condi -
tions of high reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with
reflective tiles or ice or snow). When the condi -
tions limiting the system functions end, it will
go back to normal and complete operation.
In certain cases, this dedicated message
could be displayed when the radar is not
detecting any vehicles or objects within its
view range.
If atmospheric conditions are not the reason
behind this message, check if the sensor is
dirty. It could be necessary to clean or remove
any obstructions in the area.
If the message appears frequently, even in the
absence of atmospheric conditions such as
snow, rain, mud or other obstructions, contact
an authorized dealer for a sensor alignment
check.
In the absence of visible obstructions, manu -
ally removing the decorative cover trim and
cleaning the radar surface could be required.
Have this operation performed at an autho -
rized dealer.
NOTE:

It is recommended that you do not install
devices, accessories or aerodynamic attach
-
ments in front of the sensor or darken it in any
way, as this can compromise the correct func -
tioning of the system.
Frontal Collision Alarm With Active Braking — If
Equipped
If this function is selected, the brakes are
operated to reduce the speed of the vehicle in
the event of potential frontal impact.
This function applies an additional braking
pressure if the braking pressure applied by the
driver does not suffice to prevent potential
frontal impact.
The function is active with speed above 2 mph
(4 km/h).

NOTE:

When using an automatic car wash it is recom -
mended to deactivate the system through the
settings of the radio system. The system may
detect the presence of a car, a wall or another
obstacle and activate.
Driving In Special Conditions
In certain driving conditions, system interven -
tion might be unexpected or delayed. The
driver must therefore be very careful, keeping
control of the vehicle to drive in complete
safety.Driving close to a bend.
The vehicle ahead is leaving a roundabout.
Vehicles with small dimensions and/or not
aligned in the driving lane.
Lane change by other vehicles.
Vehicles traveling at right angles to the
vehicle.

NOTE:

In particularly complex traffic conditions,
the driver can deactivate the system manu -
ally through the Information and Entertain -
ment system.
If the driver depresses the brake pedal fully
or makes an excessive steering maneuver
during system operation, the automatic
braking function may deactivate (e.g. to
allow a possible maneuver to avoid the
obstacle).
The FCW system is automatically deacti -
vated when operating in race mode and a
warning message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster.

Driving Close To A Bend
When entering or leaving a wide bend, the
system may detect a vehicle in front of you, but
not driving in the same driving lane. In cases
such as these, the system may intervene.Driving Around Wide Curves
The Vehicle Ahead Is Leaving A Roundabout
On a roundabout, the system could intervene
when it detects a vehicle ahead that is leaving
the roundabout.
Driving In Roundabouts Vehicles With Small Dimensions And/Or Not
Aligned In The Driving Lane
The system cannot detect vehicles in front of
the vehicle if they are outside the range of the
radar sensor and may not react to small vehi
-
cles, such as bicycles or motorcycles.
Driving Near Small Vehicles
Lane Change By Other Vehicles
Vehicles suddenly changing lanes to enter the
same lane as your vehicle within the operating
range of the radar sensor, may cause the
system to intervene. Other Vehicles Changing Lanes
Vehicles Traveling At Right Angles To The
Vehicle
The system could temporarily react to a
vehicle that is passing at right angles through
the radar sensor’s operating range

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that sends the
inflation pressure information of each tire to
the control unit, and will signal the driver in the
event of insufficient tire pressure.
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel
rim mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire
pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire
pressure readings to the receiver module.
Tire pressure will vary with temperature by
approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F
(6.5°C). This means that when the outside
temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
also decrease. Tire pressure should always be
set based on cold inflation tire pressure. This
is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three
hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure
must not exceed the maximum inflation pres-
sure molded into the tire sidewall. The tire
pressure will also increase as the vehicle is
driven. This is normal, and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
See
Ú
page 233 for information on how to
properly inflate the vehicle’s tires.
The TPMS will signal the driver if pressure falls
below the warning limit for any reason,
including the effects of low temperature and
normal loss of pressure from the tire. The TPMS will stop indicating insufficient tire
pressure when pressure is equal to or greater
than the prescribed cold inflation level. There
-
fore, if insufficient tire pressure is indicated by
the ( ) warning light displaying in the instru -
ment cluster, increase the inflation pressure
up to the prescribed cold inflation value.
The system will automatically update, and the
TPMS Warning Light will turn off once the
system receives the updated tire pressures.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order
for the TPMS to receive this information.

NOTE:

The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tire pres -
sure drops (e.g. if a tire bursts). In this case,
proceed with caution and avoid abrupt
steering.
Operating Example
For example, your vehicle may have a recom -
mended cold (parked for more than three
hours) placard pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If
the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C), and
the measured tire pressure is 28 psi (193 kPa),
a temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will
decrease the tire pressure to approximately
24 psi (165 kPa). This tire pressure is low
enough to turn on the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Warning Light.” Driving the vehicle may cause
the tire pressure to rise to approximately 28 psi
(193 kPa), but the TPMS Warning Light will still
be on. In this situation, the TPMS Warning Light
WARNING!
The system has not been designed to
prevent impacts and cannot detect
possible conditions leading to an accident
in advance. Failure to take into account
this warning may lead to serious or fatal
injuries.
The system may activate, assessing the
trajectory of the vehicle, for the presence
of reflecting metal objects different from
other vehicles, such as safety barriers,
road signs, barriers before parking lots,
tollgates, level crossings, gates, railways,
objects near road constructions sites or
higher than the vehicle (e.g. a fly-over). In
the same way, the system may intervene
inside multi-story parking lots or tunnels,
or due to a glare on the road surface.
These possible activations are a conse -
quence of the real driving scenario
coverage by the system and must not be
regarded as faults.
The system has been designed for road
use only. If the vehicle is driven on a track,
the system must be deactivated to avoid
unnecessary warnings. Automatic deacti -
vation is signaled by the dedicated
warning light/symbol switching on in the

will turn off only after the tires are inflated to the
vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure
value.Insufficient Tire Pressure Indication
If an insufficient pressure value is detected on
one or more tires, the warning light in the
instrument cluster will display alongside the
dedicated messages, the system will highlight
the tire or tires with insufficient pressure
graphically, and an acoustic signal will be
emitted.
In this case, stop the vehicle, check the infla
-
tion pressure of each tire, and inflate the
necessary tire or tires to the correct cold infla -
tion pressure value, shown on the display or in
the dedicated TPMS menu.
TPMS Temporarily Disabled:
TPMS Check Message

When a system fault is detected, the TPMS
Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds,
and then remain on solid. The system fault will
also sound a chime. If the ignition is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, provided that the system
fault still exists. The TPMS Warning Light will turn
off when the fault condition no longer exists. A
system fault can occur due to any of the
following:

Jamming due to electronic devices or
driving next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals.
Packed snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS
sensors.
After the punctured tire has been repaired
with the original tire sealant contained in the
Tire Kit, the previous condition must be
restored so that the warning light is off
during normal driving.
TPMS Deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated by replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with wheel and tire assemblies that do not
have TPMS sensors, such as when installing
winter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.

To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The
TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on. The instrument cluster will display
the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure
values.

Beginning with the next ignition switch cycle,
the TPMS will no longer chime or display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message in the
instrument cluster. Instead, dashes (--) will
remain in place of the pressure values.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the orig -
inal equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been estab -
lished for the tire size equipped on your
vehicle. Undesirable system operation or
sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. The TPMS
sensor is not designed for use on after -
market wheels and may contribute to a
poor overall system performance or
sensor damage. Customers are encour -
aged to use OEM wheels to assure proper
TPMS feature operation.
Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) sensor to become inoperable.
After using an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle
to an authorized dealer to have your
sensor function checked.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres -
sure always reinstall the valve stem cap.
This will prevent moisture and dirt from
entering the valve stem, which could
damage the TPMS sensor.
