Alfa Romeo Giulia Owner's Handbook Manual page 126

IMPORTANT The driver is fully
responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.
"STOP AND GO" STRATEGY
The "Stop and Go" operating strategy
allows you to maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead until the car has
completely stopped. It will also restart
the car automatically if the vehicle ahead
moves off within two seconds, otherwise
it is necessary to press the accelerator
pedal or the RES button to restart.
DEACTIVATION
The device is deactivated and the set
speed is cancelled if:
if the button on the Active Cruise
Control is pressed (with the device
enabled or paused);
the ignition device is in the STOP
position;
RACE mode is activated.
The device is cancelled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
when the device is paused (see the
"Activating / Deactivating Active Cruise
Control" paragraph);
when the conditions shown in the
"Setting the desired speed" paragraph
occur;

SYSTEM LIMITED OPERATION
WARNING
If the dedicated message is shown on the
display, a condition limiting the system
operation may have occurred.
The possible reasons of this limitation
are something blocking the camera view
or a fault. If an obstruction is signalled,
clean the area of the windscreen
indicated in fig. 112 and check that the
message has disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to normal
and complete operation.
Should the fault persist, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
PRECAUTIONS WHILE DRIVING
The device may not work correctly in
some driving conditions (see below): the
driver must control the car at all times.
Towing a trailer
Use of the device is not recommended
while towing a trailer.
VEHICLE not aligned
The device may not detect a car travelling
on the same lane but which is not aligned
along the same direction of travel or a car
which is cutting in from a side lane.
Sufficient distance from the cars ahead
may not be guaranteed in these cases.
The non-aligned car can weave in and out
of the driving direction causing the car to
brake or accelerate unexpectedly.
Steering and bends
On bends fig. 119 with the device set, it
could limit speed and acceleration to
guarantee vehicle stability even if no
vehicles are detected ahead.
When leaving the bend, the device resets
the previously set speed.
119
IMPORTANT In case of narrow curves,
the performance of the device could be
limited. In this case, it is advisable to
deactivate the device. Moreover,
remember that the device only limits the
speed DURING a bend and not BEFORE
it, so always take great care.
