Maserati Ghibli 2019, Owner'S Manual

Page: 264 / 384

Setting options are described in the
following paragraph.
When FCW status for some reason
changes to off, the corresponding
amber warning light on instrument
cluster will light on.
This warning light informs the driver
that FCW is disabled. This warning
light will light even when the
activation of another driver assistance
feature or drive mode (example:
(ESC OFF)) disables the FCW.
NOTE:
The FCW system setting is kept in
memory from one key cycle to the
next.
Changing FCW Sensitivity and
Active Braking
The default status of FCW Sensitivity is
the “Medium” setting. When the
active braking function (“Forward
Collision Warning Active Braking”)
setting is on, the system warns you of
a possible collision with the vehicle in
front of you when you are farther
away and it applies limited braking.
This gives you the most reaction time
to help avoid a possible collision.
Changing the sensitivity status to the
“Near” setting, allows the system to
warn you of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front of you when you
are much closer. This setting provides
less reaction time than the “Far”
sensitivity setting, which allows for a
more dynamic driving experience.
“Medium” is the intermediate status
between the two described above.
NOTE:
• The default values shall appear at
every new ignition cycle: Sensitivity =
“Medium” and Active Braking = on.
• FCW may not react to irrelevant
objects such as objects not in the
path of the car, stationary objects
that are far away, oncoming traffic,
on cross traffic vehicles, or leading
vehicles with the same or higher rate
of speed.
• The active braking (autonomous
braking/braking aid) will not be
provided in case of potential collision
with static object such as guard rails,
walls, etc..).
• FCW will be disabled like ACC (refer
to chapter “Adaptive Cruise Control -
ACC” in this section.
Changing the active braking status to
“Off” prevents the system from
Driving
