System Monitoring on TFT
Display
Whenever the ABSA system is enabled
by the user, an specific indicator is
displayed in the left upper corner of
the TFT display (area 24). This indicator
can take on different colors depending
on the system status:
stand by status (white icon);
active status (green icon);
intervention (amber icon).
In Case of Intervention
ABAS shall apply a torque on the
steering wheel when a vehicle is
detected in blind spot. If driver's hands
are off the steering wheel, a graphic
pop-up shall appear on TFT display to
invite you to keep your hands on the
steering wheel. In this case, a single
audible chime is repeated until he/she
will take the control of the vehicle
again.
RCP - Rear Cross Path
Operation
RCP operation is the same as described
in chapter "Blind Spot Assist - BSA".
The visual or audible alerts from
RCP subsystem will also be present
when ABSA is turned off from MIA
"Settings" menu of the "Vehicle"
page.
When ABSA is turned on with any
setting, RCP subsystem shall respond
with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected vehicle or object is
present. Whenever an audible alert
is requested, the radio (if on) is also
muted.
Right/left turn/hazard signal status
is ignored; the RCP status always
requests the chime.
Driver Assistance Systems
System Temporarily
Unavailable
The blind spot system will become
temporarily unavailable and the
instrument cluster display will show
the message "Blind Spot Alert
Temporarily Unavailable" when the
vehicle enters a radio quite zone
(example the areas around radio
telescopes).
The warning light on the outside rear-
view mirrors will be lit up and stay lit
until the vehicle exits the zone.
System in Faulty
The ABSA system cannot properly
operate either due to a fault of its
components, or because the area on
windshield where the forward-facing
camera is located or on the rear
bumper fascia where the radar sensors
are located is dirty. In these cases the
amber warning light and the related
message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster.
