Full Brake Control System; Deactivating The Blind Spot Assist Function - Fiat 500X Owner's Handbook Manual

During "RCP" operating mode, the
system emits acoustic and visual
indications if the presence of an object
is detected. When an acoustic warning
is sent, theUconnect™ volume is also
lowered.
Deactivating the Blind Spot Assist
function
When the system is deactivated ("Blind
spot alert" mode at "OFF"), the BSA or
RCP systems will not emit either
acoustic nor visual warnings.
The BSA system will store the operating
mode running when the engine was
stopped. Each time the engine is
started, the operating mode stored
previously will be recalled and used.
IMPORTANT The system is an aid for
car driving, it DOES NOT warn the
driver about incoming cars outside of
the detection areas. The driver must
always maintain a sufficient level of
attention to the traffic and road
conditions and for controlling the
trajectory of the car.

The car can be equipped with the "Full
Brake Control" system. This is a driving
assistance system composed of a radar
located behind the front bumper
fig. 57 and a camera located in the
middle of the windscreen fig. 58.

In the event of an imminent collision the
system intervenes by automatically
braking the car to prevent the impact or
reduce its effects.
58
The system provides the driver with
acoustic and visual signals through
specific messages on the instrument
panel display.
The system may lightly brake to warn
the driver if a possible frontal accident is
detected (limited braking). Signals and
limited braking are intended to allow the
driver to react promptly, in order to
prevent or reduce the effects of a
F1B0720
potential accident.
In situations with the risk of collision, if
the system detects no intervention by
the driver, it provides automatic braking
to help slow the car and mitigate the
potential frontal accident (automatic
braking). If intervention by the driver on
the brake pedal is detected but not
deemed sufficient, the system may
intervene in order to improve the
reaction of the braking system,
therefore reducing vehicle speed further
(additional assistance in braking stage).
