cruise control Lancia Thema 2013 Owner handbook (in English)

Narrow Vehicles
Some narrow vehicles traveling near
the outer edges of the lane or edging
into the lane are not detected until
they have moved fully into the lane.
There will not be sufficient distance to
the vehicle ahead.
Stationary Objects And VehiclesACC does not react to stationary objects
and stationary vehicles. For example,
ACC will not react in situations wherethe vehicle you are following exits your
lane and the vehicle ahead is stopped in
your lane. Always be attentive and
ready to apply the brakes if necessary.
NORMAL (FIXED SPEED)
CRUISE CONTROL MODE
In addition to Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol mode, a normal (fixed speed)
Cruise Control mode is available for
cruising at fixed speeds. The normal
Cruise Control mode is designed to
maintain a set cruising speed without
requiring the driver to operate the
accelerator. Cruise Control can only
be operated if the vehicle speed is
above 32 km/h.
To change modes, press the MODE
button when the system is in either the
OFF, READY, or SET position.
“Cruise Ready” will be displayed if
the system was in ACC READY or
ACC SET position. “Cruise Off” will
be displayed if the system was in the
ACC OFF position. To switch back to
Adaptive Cruise Control mode, press
the MODE button a second time.
WARNING!
In the normal Cruise Control mode,
the system will not react to vehicles
ahead. In addition, the proximity
warning does not activate and no
alarm will sound even if you are too
close to the vehicle ahead since nei-
ther the presence of the vehicle
ahead nor the vehicle-to vehicle
distance is detected. Be sure to
maintain a safe distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Always be aware which mode is
selected.

To Set A Desired Speed
When the vehicle reaches the speed
desired, press the SET-button and
release. The EVIC will display the set
speed.
NOTE: You must observe the
display when setting or changing
speed, not the speedometer.
To Vary The Speed Setting
There are two ways to change the set
speed:
 Use the accelerator pedal to adjust the vehicle to the desired speed and
press the SET -button.
 Tap the RES +or SET -button to
increase or decrease the set speed in
1 km/h increments respectively.
Hold the RES +or SET -button for
5 km/h increments.
To CancelThe system will disable normal Cruise
Control without erasing the memory if: You softly tap or depress the brake pedal.  You press the CANCEL button.
 The Electronic Stability Control/
Traction Control System (ESC/
TCS) activates.
To Resume
Press the RES +button and then re-
move your foot from the accelerator
pedal. The EVIC will display the last
set speed.
To Turn Off
The system will turn off and erase the
set speed in memory if:
 You push and release the ON/OFF button.
 You turn off the ignition.
 You switch off ESC.
If the Cruise Control system is turned
off and reactivated, the system will
return to the last driver setting (ACC
or Normal Cruise Control). FORWARD COLLISION
WARNING (for versions/
markets, where provided)
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
warns the driver of a potential colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you
and prompts the driver to take action
in order to avoid the collision.
FCW monitors the information from
the forward looking sensor as well
as the Electronic Brake Controller
(EBC), wheel speed sensors, i.e., to
calculate a probable rear-end colli-
sion. When the system determines
that a rear-end collision is probable a
warning message (both audible and
visual) will be displayed on the EVIC.
When the system determines a colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you is
no longer probable, the warning mes-
sage will be deactivated.
NOTE: The minimum speed for
FCW activation is 16 km/h.

"Messages" main menu item. As long
as there is a stored message, an "i"
will be displayed in the EVIC's
compass/outside temp line. Examples
of this message type are "Right Front
