STARTING AND OPERATING
 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 automatically
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 situation occurs, Active Park Assist will
not work. The rear sensors are automatically reacti-
vated when the trailer's cable plug is removed.
 In "Search in Progress" mode, the system could incor-
rectly 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 impos-
sible 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 vehicles
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.

ANAGEMENT
The Active Lane Management (ALM) system uses a
forward facing camera to detect lane markings or road
edges and to measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries. It also uses the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
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
approaches (or crosses) the lane marking with no turn
signal applied, and the blind spot zone is not occupied, the
ALM system provides warnings to prompt the driver to
remain within the lane boundaries. These warnings
include a visual warning in the instrument cluster along
with steering assist torque (if configured in Uconnect
Settings).
If the driver crosses the lane marking, the system will
either guide the vehicle back to the center of the lane,
provide a vibration in the steering wheel, or both,
depending on radio settings.
When both lane markings are detected, and the driver
uses the turn signal to indicate a lane change, and a
vehicle is detected in the BSM zone on that side of the
vehicle, the ALM 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.
NOTE:
 The system will suppress visual warnings, steering
O
vibration (if selected in radio settings), and steering
PERATION
assistance (if selected in radio settings) when the
driver activates the turn signal, the blind spot zone is
clear of vehicles, and a lane change is occurring.
 If the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system detects a
vehicle in the adjacent lane, and the turn signal is
applied in that direction, the BSM LED on the mirror will
flash. If the driver continues to attempt the lane
change, steering wheel torque will be provided to keep
the vehicle within its lane markings.
The driver may manually override the steering assist
warning by applying force to the steering wheel at any
time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver
drifts across the lane marking (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.
