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 may temporarily react to a
vehicle that is passing through the radar
sensor's operating range at right
angles.

Warning!
06016S0007EM
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 consequence 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
deactivation is signaled by the dedicated
warning light/symbol switching on in the
instrument panel (refer to the instructions in
the "Warning Lights And Messages On The
Instrument Panel" in "Getting To Know Your
06016S0008EM
Instrument Panel" for further information).
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
(TPMS)
This 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.
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 pressure
molded into the tire sidewall. Refer to
