WARNING It is dangerous to leave the
device activated when it is not used.
There is a risk of inadvertently activating
it and losing control of the car due to
unexpected excessive speed.
Deactivation
With the device active, to deactivate it
press and release the button (1) fig. 157.
The icon (1) fig. 158 disappears.
SETTING THE DESIRED SPEED
The device can be set only with speeds
above 30 km/h (or 20 mph for markets
with instrument panels giving mph) and
with a maximum limit of 130 km/h (or 81
mph for markets with instrument panels
giving mph).
The maximum speed value that can be
set can be limited by Speed Limiters
approved in certain countries or by the
Speed Limiters set by fleets.
When the car has reached the desired
speed, turn the ring (3) fig. 157 towards
SET + or SET - and release to set the
speed to the current speed: the display
will show the set speed and the icon will
turn green (device ready) (1) fig. 158 will
turn green (device ready). Then take your
foot off the accelerator pedal. When the
dedicated screen is not shown on the
display, the icon is replaced by the green
triangle (1) fig. 159.
Press the accelerator pedal to make the
car go faster than the set speed. While
the accelerator pedal is pressed:
a graphic on the display will make
the Adaptive Cruise Control warning
light flash if the target car ahead is not
present. If the car in front is detected by
the sensors, a graphic of the detected car
will be displayed and flashing;
the device will not be able to control
the distance between the car and the
vehicle ahead. In this case the speed will
be determined only by the position of the
accelerator pedal.
The device will return to normal
operation as soon as the accelerator
pedal is released.
The system cannot be set:
when the brake pedal is pressed
when the brakes are overheated
when the parking brake is engaged
when the gear lever is in P (park), R
(reverse) or N (neutral)
when the engine rpm is above a
maximum threshold
when the car speed is not within the
settable speed range
when an intervention of the ESC
system (or ABS or other stability control
systems) is in progress, or has just ended
when the ESC system is off
when the Autonomous Emergency
Brake Control system (where provided)
is braking automatically
when the Speed Limiter is active
in case of failure of the device itself
if the engine is off
in case of radar sensor obstruction:
in this case, clean the sensor position in
the zone shown in fig. 155. Use a clean
cloth for cleaning. Do not use solvents or
abrasive paste
In case of system set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system with times that may vary
according to the conditions.
WARNING The device is not deactivated
when speeds higher than those set (130
km/h) are reached with the accelerator
pedal pressed. In these conditions, the
