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).
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 turn
signal 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 operation 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, sidewalks,
etc.).
Hand 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 presence 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 presence of
hands on the steering wheel from 6 to 15 sec-
onds, 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)

SAFETY

144

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 vehicles,
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, refer to

DRIVER ATTENTION ASSIST (DAA)
S
YSTEM — 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
deactivated 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 conditions 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 hori-
zontal 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 disappear
from the display and the symbol will be displayed
in the dedicated area of the instrument cluster
display until the next engine shutdown. 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.
22_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 144

145

If the driver ignores the warning provided by the
system and does not stop, the message will
continue to remain on the display, along with the
symbol.

NOTE:

In the event of a DAA system failure, an amber
symbol will appear in the instrument cluster
display along with a dedicated message.
If the ABS system activates, “ABS ACTIVE” will
display in place of the DAA symbol and will
remain active until the ABS system
deactivates.
DAA Warning Message
DAA Warning Icon Changing The System Sensitivity
The DAA system intervention sensitivity can be
adjusted through the radio system within the
“Driver Assistance” menu.

NOTE:

If “Race” mode (if equipped) is activated, the
DAA system will be automatically deactivated.
The system sensitivity cannot be changed in
the event of a camera system failure.
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING PLUS
(FCW+) S
YSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
This is a driving assistance system composed of a
radar located behind the front fascia/bumper
and a camera located in the center of the
windshield.
Front Fascia/Bumper Radar Location Windshield Camera Location
In the event of an imminent collision, the system
intervenes by automatically applying the vehicle’s
brakes to prevent a collision or reduce its effects.
The system provides the driver with audible and
visual signals through specific messages on the
instrument cluster display.

When the front seat belts are fastened
The "Alfa DNA Pro" selector is not in RACE
position (if equipped)

NOTE:
If the seat belts of the front seats are not correctly
fastened, the system will not intervene on the
braking system (only audible and visual signals
will be provided).
Changing The System Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the system can be changed
through the Information and Entertainment
system menu, choosing from one of the following
three options: "Near", "Medium" or "Far". Refer to
the description in the Information and
Entertainment system Supplement for how to
change the settings.
The default setting is "Medium". With this setting,
the system warns the driver of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front when that vehicle is at a
standard distance, between that of the other two
settings.
With the system sensitivity set to "Far", the
system will warn the driver of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front when that vehicle is at a
greater distance, thus providing the possibility of
acting on the brakes more lightly and gradually.
This setting provides the driver with the maximum
possible reaction time to prevent a potential
collision.

NOTE:
The “Far” setting may result in a greater number
of FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
With the option set to "Near", the system will alert
the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front when that vehicle is close. This setting
offers the driver a lower reaction time compared to the "Medium" and "Far" settings, in the event of
a potential collision, but permits more dynamic
driving of the vehicle.

NOTE:
The “Near” setting may result in a lesser number
of FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
The system sensitivity setting is kept in the
memory when the engine is turned off.
System Limited Operation Warning
If a dedicated message is displayed, a condition
limiting the system operation may have occurred.
The possible reasons of this limitation are
something is blocking the camera view or a fault.
If an obstruction is signaled, clean the area of the
radar on the front fascia/bumper, and the
camera area on the windshield.
If a fault in the system is occurring, it will still be
possible to drive the vehicle normally, but
automatic braking will not be available in the
event of an impending collision.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to normal and
complete operation. Should the fault persist,
contact an authorized dealer.
System Failure Signaling
If the system turns off and a dedicated message
is shown on the display, it means that there is a
fault with the system.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the vehicle,
but you are advised to contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Radar Indication Not Available
If conditions are such that the radar cannot
detect obstacles correctly, the system is
deactivated and a dedicated message appears on the display. This generally occurs in the event
of poor visibility, such as when it is snowing or
raining heavily.
The function of this system can also be
temporarily 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 conditions of
high reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with reflective tiles or
ice or snow). When the conditions 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, manually
removing the decorative cover trim and cleaning
the radar surface could be required. Have this
operation performed at an authorized dealer.

NOTE:
It is recommended that you do not install devices,
accessories or aerodynamic attachments in front
of the sensor or darken it in any way, as this can
compromise the correct functioning 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 intervention
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 manually
through the Information and Entertainment
system.
If the driver presses 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 deactivated
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 vehicles, such
as bicycles or motorcycles.

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.
Therefore, if insufficient tire pressure is indicated
by the ( ) warning light displaying in the
instrument 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 pressure
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
recommended 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 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 inflation
pressure of each tire, and inflate the necessary
tire or tires to the correct cold inflation 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.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been
established 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
aftermarket wheels and may contribute to a
poor overall system performance or sensor
damage. Customers are encouraged to use
OEM wheels to ensure 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 pressure
always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will
prevent moisture and dirt from entering the
valve stem, which could damage the TPMS
sensor.
22_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 150

151

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.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
equipped with TPMS sensors. Then, drive the
vehicle for up to 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 turn off. The instrument cluster will
display the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
and then display pressure values in place of the
dashes. On the next ignition switch cycle the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message will no longer
be displayed, as long as no system fault exists.

NOTE:

The TPMS is not intended to replace normal
tire care and maintenance, or to provide
warning of a tire failure or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire
pressure gauge while adjusting your tire
pressure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire will
cause the tire to overheat, and can lead to tire
failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsi
-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure using an
accurate tire pressure gauge, even if underin -
flation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS Warning Light.
Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire
pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual
tire pressure in the tire
