Parking Lights
To turn on the parking lights and instrument
panel lights, rotate the headlight switch clock-
wise to the position. All of the parking lights
will turn on for eight minutes, and opening the
door activates an audible warning.
To leave only the lights on one side (right/left)
illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel)
to the side that you want to remain on. With
the parking lights on, the indicator light on
the instrument panel will illuminate.
To turn off the parking lights, rotate the head -
light switch back to the O (off) position.
Headlight Off Delay
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the “Head -
light Off Delay” feature will leave the head -
lights on for up to 90 seconds. This delay is
initiated when the ignition is placed in the OFF
position while the headlight switch is on, and
then the headlight switch is cycled off. Head -
light delay can be canceled by either turning
on the headlights or side lights, or by placing
the ignition in the ON position.
The function can be activated from the radio
system by selecting the following functions in
sequence on the main menu:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Lights.”
3. “Headlight Off Delay.”
Rear Fog Lights
The rear fog light switch is located within the
headlight switch.
Push the button, located in the center of
the headlight switch, to turn the rear fog lights
on/off.
The rear fog lights turn on only when the head -
lights or parking lights are also turned on. The
lights can be turned off by pushing the
button again or by turning the headlight switch
to the O (off) position.
When the engine is stopped with the rear fog
lights on, they will be off the next time the
engine is started.
Adaptive Headlight System (AFS) — If
Equipped
This is a system combined with Xenon head -
lights (Bi-Xenon 35 W headlamp, if equipped)
which directs the headlights horizontally, and
continuously and automatically adapts them
to the driving conditions around bends or
when cornering.
The system directs the headlights to light up
the road in the best way, taking into account
the speed of the vehicle and the bend or
corner angle, as well as the speed at which the
steering wheel is turned.
The adaptive lights are automatically activated
when the vehicle is started.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down to
activate the turn signals. The arrows on each
side of the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation.
The or turn signal will blink on the instru -
ment panel.

moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal
will flash five times then automatically turn off.
To turn off the flashing before the end of the
cycle, move the lever in the opposite direction
until the first click (about half way).
INTERIOR LIGHTS
Courtesy lights are turned on when the front
doors are opened or when the dimmer control
is rotated to its farthest upward position. The
glove compartment light turns on automati -
cally when the glove compartment is opened
and turn off when it is closed. The door cour -
tesy lights illuminate when one of the front
doors is opened, and turn off when it is closed.
The liftgate courtesy lights turn on automati -
cally when the liftgate is opened and turn off
when it is closed. All of these lights turn on and
off regardless of the ignition status.

Overtake Aid
When driving with ACC engaged and following
a vehicle at a speed greater than 45 mph
(70 km/h), the system will provide an addi-
tional acceleration up to the ACC set speed to
assist in passing the vehicle. This additional
acceleration is triggered when the driver
utilizes the left turn signal and will only be
active when passing on the left hand side.

The system detects the direction of traffic auto -
matically when the vehicle passes from left
hand traffic to right hand traffic. In this case,
the overtaking assist function is only active
when the reference vehicle is overtaken on the
right. The additional acceleration is deactivated
when the driver uses the right direction indi -
cator and returns to the original lane.

“Stop And Go” Function
The “Stop and Go” operating strategy allows
you to maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead until the vehicle has completely
stopped.
In the event that the ACC system brings your
vehicle to a standstill while following the
vehicle in front, if the vehicle in front starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle
coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume
motion without the need for any driver action.
If the vehicle in front does not start moving
within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will have to push the RES/
SET switch upward to restart.
Deactivation

The system is deactivated and the set speed is
canceled if:
The on/off button is pushed (when the
system is on or paused).
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
RACE mode is activated (Quadrifoglio
models)
The system is canceled (the set speed and
distance are stored):
When the system is paused

Úpage 108
When the conditions shown in the “Activating
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)” section occur
Úpage 108

Limited Operation Warning
If the dedicated message is shown on the
display, a condition limiting the Adaptive
Cruise Control operation may have occurred.
This could be due to an obstruction of the
vehicle’s sensor or camera. It could also be
due to a fault in the system. If an obstruction
is detected, clean the area of the windshield
opposite the interior rearview mirror, where
the camera is located, as well as the area of
the front fascia/bumper where the sensor is
located. Then check that the message has
disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system func -
tions end, normal operation will resume.
Should the fault persist, contact an authorized
dealer.
Precautions While Driving With ACC
In certain driving situations, ACC may have
detection issues. In these cases, ACC may
brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs
to stay alert and may need to intervene. The
following are examples of these types of situa -
tions:
Towing A Trailer
Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC.
Offset Driving
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane
that is offset from your direct line of travel, or
a vehicle merging in from a side lane. There
may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle
The driver is fully responsible for holding a
safe distance from the vehicle ahead
respecting the highway code in force in
the respective country.
WARNING! (Continued)
WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the
driver must ensure that there are no
pedestrians, vehicles or objects in the path
of the vehicle. Failure to follow these
warnings can result in a collision and death
or serious personal injury.

HIGHWAY ASSIST SYSTEM
(HAS) — IF EQUIPPED
The Highway Assist System (HAS) is a driving
assistance system that is only available when
driving on highways. The system operates up
to speeds of 90 mph (145 km/h) when hori -
zontal signs are detected.
The system uses information from the front
camera and radar to help keep the vehicle in
the center of the lane and at a constant speed.
The HAS system combines Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) functions with lane centering
logic to control the trajectory of the vehicle.
The HAS system requires the driver’s hands to
remain on the steering wheel.
Once HAS is activated, a dedicated screen will
appear on the instrument cluster display.

NOTE:

When the HAS system is turned off, the
symbol on the display turns red and then
grey.
Hands on the steering wheel are detected
by a capacitive sensor installed in it.
When the automatic suspension conditions
are over, HAS will be automatically reacti -
vated.
Operation
The HAS system only operates when the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel.
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 114

115

If the system detects that the driver’s hands
have been removed from the steering wheel,
the system will alert the driver to place their
hands back on the steering wheel

Ú
page 115.
If the vehicle crosses the lane boundary, the
steering wheel will vibrate and the dedicated
screen will appear in the instrument cluster
display.

NOTE:

The HAS system may take up to five seconds
to turn on once all conditions are met. During
this time, a grey indicator light will appear on
the instrument cluster display and the system
will automatically activate as soon as all of the
conditions are met with no intervention from
the driver.
The following conditions must be met before
the HAS system turns on:
The HAS system must be enabled by
pushing the button on the steering wheel
The vehicle must be on a highway
ACC must be activated
The right and left lane boundaries must be
visible
The vehicle speed must be between 0 and

The camera, radar, and radio system must
be functioning properly
The road lane width must be between 8.5 ft
and 13.7 ft (2.6 m and 4.2 m)
The turn signals must not be activated
The HAS system must be functioning prop -
erly
Other operating limits:
If the speed of ACC can be set to a higher
value (top speed 110 mph (180 km/h), HAS
is only available as long as the vehicle
speed is equal to or less than 90 mph
(145 km/h).
When the ACC speed is reduced and the
vehicle speed is less than 90 mph
(145 km/h), the system will automatically
reactivate.

If the ACC speed is set to 90 mph (145 km/h),
traveling downhill may increase the vehicle
speed. The HAS system will deactivate until
the speed returns to 90 mph (145 km/h).

Indications On The Display
The HAS system status can always be viewed
in the instrument cluster display.
The system status is indicated by the color of
the symbol on the display.
The HAS system uses sensors in the steering
wheel to detect if the driver’s hands are on it.
If the driver’s hands are not on the steering
wheel, a series of warnings will appear in the
instrument cluster display to alert the driver to
reposition their hands on the steering wheel. An acoustic signal will also sound. After a
period of time, the HAS system will disable if
the driver’s hands do not return to the steering
wheel.
After a period of time, the HAS system will
disable if the driver has not repositioned their
hands on the steering wheel.

TRAFFIC JAM ASSIST (TJA)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) system can be acti -
vated 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
surrounding 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 automati -
cally 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.
