The driver will be warned by a spe-
cial display message when the system
is deactivated because the lens is
dirty.
In this case, clean the sensor protec-
tion lens, shown in fig. 150 with a wet
cloth; do not use dry, rough or hard
cloths. Should the dirty lens message
stay on after cleaning, contact a
Lan-
cia Dealership .
If the Radar Cruise Con-
trol went off due to exces-
sive lens dirt, when
restarting the car a few km shall
be covered before switching the
system on again in order to let the
system check if previous condi-
tions (causing Radar Cruise Con-
trol turn off) have been removed.
The sensor is built into
the front bumper: impacts
can therefore damage it.
IMPORTANT Failure to one of the
safety systems connected to the Radar
Cruise Control (ABS or ESP system)
will cause Radar Cruise Control fail-
ure indication.
The Radar Cruise Control
should be switched on
only when road and traffic
conditions allow the driver to drive
safely, that is, when the road is
straight and the surface is not slip-
pery, when the car is driven on a
freeway or motorway, and when
traffic flows smoothly. Do not use
the device when driving in urban
areas or when traffic is heavy.
