STARTING AND DRIVING
164
150)
The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
151) 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.
152) 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 Co-Driver systems is strongly
discouraged as this system could detect
the entire carriageway as single-lane
dividing lines.
153) 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.
154) Many unpredictable situations can
arise, affecting the performance of Co-
Driver system. The driver must be ready to
react immediately and take control of the
car in place of Co-Driver system.
155)
If the car approaches a bend that is
too tight with respect to the current speed,
the Co-Driver 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.
156) The Co-Driver system uses a hands
on steering wheel detection sensor:
the driver must keep his hands on the
steering wheel at all times. If the hands
are removed from the steering wheel
for a certain period of time, the system
disengages.
157)
When using Co-Driver system, hold
the steering wheel and consider the
road conditions and surrounding traffic.
The driver must therefore be ready to
immediately regain control of the car
at any time. Failure to observe these
instructions can cause severe injuries with
even lethal consequences.
158) The Co-Driver 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.
159) If the windscreen must be replaced
due to scratches, chipping or breakage,
contact exclusively a Fiat Dealership.
Do not replace the windscreen on your
own, risk of malfunction! It is advisable to
replace the windscreen if it is damaged in
the area of the camera.
160) Driving the car on urban routes could
significantly change the sensitivity of the
system, due to the limited and/or lack of
vertical and horizontal signs and variable
traffic conditions.
161) External factors and conditions
may affect the proper operation of the
Co-Driver system: damage or obstructions
caused by mud, ice, snow, etc., damaged
or misaligned bumpers, interference
with other equipment that causes
electromagnetic waves.
162) The maximum breaking applied by
the device is limited. The driver may apply
the brakes in all cases if needed.
163) If the device predicts that the level
of braking is not sufficient to maintain
the set distance, the word “BRAKE!” or
a dedicated message on the instrument
panel display warns the driver that the
vehicle ahead is too close. An acoustic
signal is also emitted. In this case, it
is advisable to brake immediately as
necessary to hold a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead.
164) The driver is responsible for ensuring
that there are no pedestrians, other
vehicles or objectives along the direction of
the vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious accidents
and injuries.
165) The driver is fully responsible for
holding a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead respecting the highway code in
force in the respective country.
166) The device detects the direction of
traffic automatically when the car passes
from left-hand traffic to right-hand traffic.
In this case, the overtaking assist function
is only active when the reference vehicle
is overtaken on the right. The additional
acceleration is activated when the driver
uses the right direction indicator. In this
condition, the device no longer provides
the overtaking assist function on the left-
hand side until it determines that the car
has returned to left-hand traffic conditions.
167) The device cannot apply the
maximum braking force: the car will not be
stopped completely.
168) It is dangerous to leave the device
on when it is not used. There is a risk of
inadvertently activating it and losing control
of the car due to unexpected excessive
speed.
169)
The device can take the car to a
standstill but the driver must always be
ready to apply the brakes, if necessary.
