ADDITIONAL DRIVING AID FUNCTIONS

Limitation of the system operation
– The radar area should be kept clean and free of any modifications in order to ensure the proper operation
of the system.
– Small objects moving close to the vehicle (motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) may not be recognised by the
system.
– When turning into a bend, the radars may temporarily cease to detect vehicles in adjacent lanes.
– The function may warn you late when two other vehicles are approaching from the rear, side by side in the adja-
cent lanes (driving on a 3-lane road) and at a much higher speed than your vehicle.
– The system may not provide a warning when the other vehicles are travelling at a significantly different speed.
– If the vehicle is being overtaken by a long vehicle (e.g. heavy goods vehicle overtaking at a similar speed to the ve-
hicle) the system may interrupt the warning before the end of the manoeuvre.
– The vehicle is travelling on a winding road.
Deactivating the function
You must deactivate the function if:
– the radar area has been damaged (rear bumper);
– the vehicle is fitted with a towbar that is not recognised by the system.
