System limitations

The Front Assist has certain physical limita-
tions inherent to the system. Thus, in certain
circumstances, some of the system's reac-
tions may be inopportune from the driver's
standpoint. So pay attention in order to inter-
vene if necessary.
The following conditions may cause the Front
Assist not to react or to do so too late:
● In the first few instants of driving after
switching on the ignition, due to the system's
initial auto-calibration.
● On taking tight bends or complex paths.
Pressing the accelerator all the way down.
●
● If the Front Assist is switched off or dam-
aged.
● If the ASR has been disconnected or the
ESC activated in Sport mode manually

If the ESC is controlling.
●
● If several brake lights of the vehicle or elec-
trically connected trailer are damaged.
