SAFETY
112
an automatic car wash with an obstacle in
the front part (e.g. another vehicle, a wall or
another obstacle), the system may detect
its presence and activate. Therefore, in this
case the system must be deactivated.
66) If the iTPMS system signals a pressure
drop on the tyres, it is recommended to
check the pressure on all four tyres.
67) The iTPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; it is not even to be
considered a replacement system for
maintenance or a safety system.
68) Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed value,
but repeat the check when tyres are cold.
69) The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (for example when a tyre
bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle, braking
with caution and avoiding abrupt steering.
70) The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate them.
71) Insufficient tyre inflation increases
electrical energy consumption, reduces the
tread duration and may affect your ability
to drive safely.
IMPORTANT
25) The system may have limited operation
or not work at all in weather conditions such
as, low sun, heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy
snow.
26) System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
27) Operation can be adversely affected
by any structural change made to the
vehicle, such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier than
standard load of the vehicle.
28) Incorrect repairs in the zone where the
camera is mounted may interfere with its
field of vision and reduce its performance
(e.g. application of fillers or glues to remove
scratches). Go to an Alfa Romeo Dealership
for any operation of this type.
29) Do not tamper with nor operate on the
camera on the windscreen. In the event of
a sensor failure, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
30) The camera may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow,
formation of ice layers on the windscreen
glass.
31) Camera operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the windscreen
glass, by traffic conditions (e.g. cars that
are driving not aligned with yours, car
driving in a transverse or opposite way on
the same lane, bend with a small radius of
curvature), by road surface conditions and
by driving conditions (e.g. off-road driving).
Make sure the windscreen is always clean.
Use specific detergents and clean cloths
to avoid scratching the windscreen. The
camera operation may also be limited or
absent in some driving, traffic and road
surface conditions.
PEDESTRIAN ACOUSTIC
WARNING SYSTEM
72)
During electric operation mode,
children, pedestrians, cyclists, animals
and other road users may not hear
the vehicle, because the normal noise
produced by the heat engine is not
present: this represents a hazard of
accident, especially at low speeds, such
as in parking areas. Adapt your driving
style to traffic conditions. Observe
traffic conditions and actively intervene
according to the situation.
The car is equipped with a pedestrian
acoustic warning system, located on the
right side of the engine compartment,
fig. 121, capable of reproducing the
noise of the heat engine while driving in
electric mode, thus alerting people in the
vicinity of the car that it is approaching.
The intensity of the acoustic warning
varies depending on the speed.
