LASER SENSOR

The system includes a laser sensor, located in the
upper part of the windscreen . fig. 73

DRIVING IN PARTICULAR CONDITIONS

In certain driving conditions, such as, for example:
❒ driving close to a bend;
❒ vehicles with small dimensions and/or not aligned

in the driving lane;

❒ lane change by other vehicles;
system intervention might be unexpected or delayed.
The driver must therefore be very careful, keeping
control of the car to drive in complete safety.

IMPORTANT In particularly complicated traffic
conditions, the driver can deactivate the system
manually with the Setup menu (see paragraph “Menu
items” in this chapter).

Driving close to a bend

When tackling a wide bend, the laser sensor may
detect the presence of a vehicle in front of the car,
but not running on the same driving lane fig. 74:
in this case, the system may be activated.

Vehicles with small dimensions and/or not
aligned in the driving lane

The system cannot detect vehicles in front of the car
outside the range of the laser sensor and cannot
react in presence of small vehicles, such as bicycles
or motorcycles fig. 75.
