LASER SENSOR

The system includes a laser sensor, located in the
upper part of the windscreen fig. 114.

IMPORTANT

WARNING

The system is an aid for the driver who
must never reduce attention while

driving.The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the traffic
conditions for driving in complete safety.The
driver must always maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front.

WARNING

If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during

system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).

The laser sensor 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.

Sensor operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the

windscreen, by traffic conditions (e.g. vehicles
that are driving not aligned with you car, vehicle
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 sensor operation may also be
limited or absent in some driving, traffic and
road surface conditions.
