the lane from kerbside are not detected
until they are fully in the lane.
Sufficient distance from the vehicles
ahead may not be guaranteed in these
cases.

Stationary objects and vehicles
The system cannot detect the presence
of stationary objects and vehicles if
you are travelling at a speed exceeding
60 km/h. For example, the system may
not operate if the vehicle ahead leaves
the lane and a car stopped on the lane
ahead of if. Pay the utmost attention at
all times and be always ready to press
the brakes if needed.
Objects and vehicles moving in
opposite or crosswise direction
The system cannot detect the presence
of objects or cars travelling in opposite
or crosswise direction fig. 176 and
consequently will not be operated.

WARNING
132) Pay the utmost attention while driving
at all times and be always ready to press the
brakes if needed.
133) The system is an aid for the driver,
who must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests
with the driver, who must take into account
the traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
134) 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.
135) The device is not activated in presence
of pedestrians, oncoming vehicles in the
opposite direction of travel or moving in
the crosswise direction and stationary
objects (e.g. a vehicle standing in a queue or
a broken down vehicle).
136) The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
137) The device does not always fully
recognise complicated driving conditions
which could cause incorrect or non-existing
determination of the safe distance to be
held.
138) When driving on two-way roads where
there is no lane dividing centre line (e.g.
on country roads), the use of the ACC and
Active Driving Assist systems is strongly
discouraged as this system could detect the
entire carriageway as single-lane dividing
lines.
139) Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel (e.g. steering wheel covers of
any type or material) which could interfere
with the capacitive hand detection sensor
on the steering wheel.
140) Many unpredictable situations can
arise, affecting the performance of Active
Driving Assist system. The driver must be
ready to react immediately and take control
of the car in place of Active Driving Assist
system.
141) If the car approaches a bend that is
too tight with respect to the current speed,
the Active Driving Assist system turns off.
The driver must therefore be ready to
immediately regain control of the car at any
time. To avoid this situation it is important
that the car speed set does not exceed the
current road speed limit.
142) The Active Driving Assist system
uses a hands on steering wheel detection
sensor: the driver must keep his hands
