Starting And Operating -> Cruise Control for Your Fiat 500 E 4 Door Second Generation (2020-2024)

78 STARTING AND OPERATING  
CAUTION!  
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEMS — IF  
EQUIPPED  
Your vehicle may be equipped with the Cruise Control  
system, or the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system:  
Do not tamper or perform any operations in the  
area of the windshield glass directly surrounding  
the sensor.  
Clean foreign matters such as bird droppings,  
insects, snow or ice on the windshield. Use  
specific detergents and clean cloths to avoid  
scratching the windshield.  
Cruise Control will keep your vehicle at a constant  
preset speed.  
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) will adjust the vehicle  
speed up to the preset speed to maintain a distance  
with the vehicle ahead.  
NAVIGATION SYSTEM INTEGRATION  
Cruise Control Buttons  
The TSR system combines the data captured by the  
camera with information from the navigation system.  
This integration allows it to offer default speed limits,  
such as the general speed limit on highways, and to  
complement camera-based road sign recognition with  
map data.  
NOTE:  
1 — On/Off  
In vehicles equipped with ACC, if ACC is not enabled,  
Fixed Speed Cruise Control will not detect vehicles  
directly ahead of you. Always be aware of the feature  
selected.  
2 — CANC/Cancel  
3 — SET (+)/Accel  
4 — RES/Resume  
5 — SET (-)/Decel  
Only one Cruise Control feature can operate at a  
time. For example, if Fixed Speed Cruise Control is  
enabled, Adaptive Cruise Control will be unavailable,  
and vice versa.  
The navigation system communicates the  
WARNING!  
measurement unit used in the country you're in and  
converts it to match your user-selected preference.  
This ensures that the speed limits suggested by  
the Intelligent Speed Assist system and the speeds  
provided by the Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control  
system are always accurate, regardless of your chosen  
measurement unit.  
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the system  
cannot maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could  
go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose  
control and have an accident. Do not use Cruise  
Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding,  
icy, snow-covered or slippery.  
CRUISE CONTROL  
When engaged, the Cruise Control takes over  
accelerator operations at speeds greater than 20 mph  
(30 km/h).  
The system can also display road signs in accordance  
with the current standards in the country you're  
traveling through. By leveraging the data in the  
navigator, the system can identify various scenarios,  
like highway, urban, and non-urban settings, and use  
the navigator's limits to provide the most accurate  
speed limits. Additionally, it can recognize curves and,  
when necessary, use the limit detected by the  
To Activate  
The Cruise Control buttons are located on the right side  
of the steering wheel.  
Push the on/off button to activate the Cruise Control.  
The symbol on the instrument panel switches on to  
signal that the device has been activated.  
To turn the system off, push the on/off button a second

navigator instead of the one identified by the camera.  
STARTING AND OPERATING 79  
If the vehicle is equipped with Active Speed Limiter and  
they system is active, the Cruise Control button must  
be pressed twice. The first press with disable Active  
Speed Limiter and then second press will enable Cruise  
Control.  
NOTE:  
Control system without erasing the set speed from  
memory.  
Before setting the desired speed, the car must first be  
travelling at a constant speed on a flat surface.  
The Cruise Control can also be turned off when the  
Electric Park Brake (EPB) is engaged, when the braking  
system kicks in (e.g. the ESC system), or in other  
particular conditions.  
To Vary The Speed Setting  
NOTE:  
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed  
Cruise Control cannot be enabled if the vehicle is in the  
Reverse or Neutral driving positions.  
Pushing the on/off button or placing the ignition in the  
OFF position, will erase the set speed from memory.  
When the Cruise Control is set, you can increase speed  
by pushing the SET (+) button, or decrease speed by  
pushing the SET (-) button.  
WARNING!  
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)  
U.S. Speed (mph)  
Leaving the Cruise Control system on when not in use  
is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system  
or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose  
control and have an accident. Always turn the system  
OFF when you are not using it.  
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving  
convenience provided by Cruise Control while traveling  
on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a  
safety system and not designed to prevent collisions.  
The Cruise Control function performs differently if your  
Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will result  
in a 1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent tap  
of the button results in an adjustment of 1 mph.

If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will  
continue to adjust until the button is released, then  
the new set speed will be established.  
vehicle is not equipped with ACC  
page 78.  
ð
To Set A Desired Speed  
ACC will allow you to keep Cruise Control engaged in  
light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant  
need to reset your speed. ACC utilizes a radar sensor  
and a forward facing camera designed to detect a  
vehicle directly ahead of you to maintain a set speed.  
Turn the Cruise Control on.  
Metric Speed (km/h)  
When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, push  
and release the SET (+) or SET (-) button. Release  
the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the  
selected speed. A Cruise Control Set Indicator Light,  
along with set speed will also appear and stay on in the  
instrument cluster when the speed is set.  
Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will result  
in a 1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent tap  
of the button results in an adjustment of 1 km/h.  
NOTE:  
If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will  
continue to adjust until the button is released, then  
the new set speed will be established.  
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will  
apply limited braking or accelerate (not to exceed  
the original set speed) automatically to maintain a  
preset following distance, while matching the speed  
of the vehicle ahead.  
If necessary, such as when passing anothr vehicle,  
you can accelerate by pressing the accelerator pedal.  
When you release the pedal, the car will return to the  
previously stored speed.  
To Resume Speed  
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES button  
and release.  
Any chassis/suspension or tire size modifications  
to the vehicle will affect the performance of  
the Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward Collision  
Warning system.  
When driving downhill with the system active, the car’s  
speed may temporarily go slightly above the set speed.  
To Deactivate  
A tap on the brake pedal, or pushing the CANC button,  
or normal brake pressure will deactivate the Cruise
