Driving








Blind spot sensors

A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:


-
immediately, when being over taken,

- after a delay of about one second, whenover taking a vehicle slowly. This drivin
g assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as thispresents a potential danger.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpersmonitor the blind spots.

This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver'sresponsibility to constantly check the traffic, to asses the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
The blind spot sensor system can never replace the vigilance and responsibility of thedriver.

Activation of the system is done in the " Driving assistance
" menu, with the ignition on.
)
Press this button to activate the
function; the associated indicator lamp comes on.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
