Active Cruise Control Activation/Deactivation; Active Cruise Control Pausing / Deactivating - Alfa Romeo giulia Owner's Handbook Manual

167
The device further enhances driving
comfort provided by the electronic
Cruise Control when on the motorway or
out of town with light traffic.
Important notes
If the sensor does not detect any vehicle
ahead, the device will maintain a fixed set
speed.
If the sensor detects a vehicle ahead, the
device automatically intervenes by
braking (or accelerating) slightly in order
not to exceed the original set speed, so
that the vehicle keeps the preset
distance, seeking to adapt to the speed
of the vehicle ahead.
In the cases described below, the system
performance is not guaranteed, it is
therefore advisable to turn the device on
by pressing the fig. 168 button:
driving in fog, heavy rain, snow, heavy
traffic and in complex driving situations
(e.g. on motorways with roadworks in
progress);

driving near a bend (winding roads), icy,
snowy, slippery roads or with steep
climbs and descents;
entering a turn lane or on a slip road;
towing a trailer;
when circumstances do not allow safe
driving at a constant speed.
