The sensors may not detect objects of a partic-
ular shape or made from particular materials
(very thin poles, trailer beams, panels, nets,
bushes, anti-parking posts, pavements, rubbish
bins, motor vehicles, etc.). Always take great
care to check that the vehicle and its path are
actually compatible with the parking place iden-
tified by the system.
The use of wheels and tires that are different
size to the original equipment could affect the
operation of the system.
The operation of the rear sensors is automati-
cally deactivated when the trailer's electric plug
is inserted in the vehicle's tow hook socket,
while the front sensors stay active and can
provide acoustic and visual warnings. If this situ-
ation occurs, Active Park Assist will not work.
The rear sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer's cable plug is removed.
In "Search in Progress" mode, the system could
incorrectly identify a parking place to carry out
the maneuver (e.g. by a junction, driveways,
roads crossing the direction of travel, etc.).
In the case of parking maneuvers on roads with
inclines, the performance of the system could
be inferior and it may deactivate.
If a parking maneuver is being carried out
between two parked vehicles alongside a curb,
the system may cause the vehicle to drive up
onto the curb.
Some maneuvers at very tight bends might be
impossible to be carried out.
Take great care to ensure that conditions do not
change during the parking maneuver (e.g. if
there are persons and/or animals in the parking
place, moving vehicles, etc.) and intervene
immediately if necessary.
During parking maneuvers, pay attention to vehi-
cles approaching from the opposite direction.
Always abide by the law and road regulations.
NOTE:
Correct system operation is not guaranteed if
snow chains or the compact spare tire are fitted.
The function only informs the driver about the
last appropriate parking place (parallel or
perpendicular) detected by the parking sensors.
Some messages displayed are accompanied by
acoustic warnings.
ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM —

ANAGEMENT
The Active Lane Management (ALM) system uses a
forward facing camera to detect lane markings or
road edges and measure vehicle position within
the lane boundaries. It also uses the Blind Spot
STARTING AND OPERATING
Monitoring sensors to detect vehicles in adjacent
lanes while the driver is preparing to change lanes.
The system is operational at speeds above 37 mph
(60 km/h) and below 112 mph (180 km/h).
When both lane markings are detected, and the
vehicle drifts out of the lane (no turn signal
applied), the Active Lane Management system
provides a visual warning in the instrument cluster,
as well as a steering assist torque (if configured in
Uconnect Settings), to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries. If the driver continues
to drift out of the lane, the system provides a
flashing visual warning through the instrument
cluster display as well as a haptic steering wheel
vibration (if configured in Uconnect Settings) when
the vehicle crosses the lane boundary.
The warning will be in the form of a vibration in the
steering wheel, and/or automatic steering
assistance to direct the vehicle back toward the
center of the lane.
When both lane markings are detected, and the
driver uses the turn signal to indicate a lane
change while the system detects another vehicle in
O
the Blind Spot Monitoring zone on that side of the
PERATION
vehicle, the Active Lane Management system
provides a warning in the form of steering assist
and/or steering vibration (depending on radio
settings) to guide the vehicle back to the center of
the lane.
