WARNING!
The maximum breaking applied by the
system is limited. The driver may apply the
brakes in all cases if needed.
If the system predicts that the braking
level is insufficient to hold the set
distance, either "BRAKE!" or a dedicated
message is displayed to warn the driver of
approaching the vehicle ahead. An
acoustic signal is also emitted. In this
case, it is advised to brake immediately as
necessary to hold a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead.
The driver is responsible for ensuring that
there are no pedestrians, other vehicles or
objectives along the direction of the
vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious accidents
and injuries.
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" Function
The "Stop and Go" operating strategy allows
you to maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead until the vehicle has completely
stopped. It will also restart the vehicle auto-
matically if the vehicle ahead drives away
within two seconds, otherwise it is necessary
to press the accelerator pedal or move the
RES/SET switch upward to restart.
WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver
must ensure that there are no pedestrians,
vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in
a collision and death or serious personal
injury.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated and the set speed is
canceled if:
The on/off button is pushed (when the
system is on or paused).
The ignition is in the OFF position.
RACE mode is activated.
The system is canceled (the set speed and
distance are stored):
When the system is paused (refer to "Activa-
tion / Deactivation" in this section).
When the conditions shown in the "Setting
The Desired Speed" section occur.
Limited Operation Warning
If the dedicated message is shown on the
display, a condition limiting the Adaptive
Cruise Control operation may have occurred.
This could be due to an obstruction of the
vehicle's sensor or camera. It could also be
due to a fault in the system. If an obstruction
is detected, clean the area of the windshield
opposite the interior rear view mirror, where
the camera is located, as well as the area of
the front bumper where the sensor is located.
Then check that the message has disap-
peared.
When the conditions limiting the system func-
tions end, normal operation will resume.
Should the fault persist, contact an authorized
dealer.
Precautions While Driving
The system may not work correctly in some
driving conditions (see below). The driver must
control the vehicle at all times.
Towing A Trailer
Use of this system is not recommended while
towing a trailer.
