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

106 STARTING AND OPERATING  
CAUTION!  
If the vehicle continues to drift beyond the lane  
boundary without any driver intervention, a warning  
light will illuminate on the instrument cluster display,  
urging the driver to steer the car back into the lane’s  
boundaries.  
CHANGING LANESENSE STATUS  
The LaneSense system has settings to adjust the  
intensity of the torque warning and the warning zone  
sensitivity (early/medium/late) that you can configure  
above or below the sensors will not be detected  
when they are in close proximity.  
The vehicle must be driven slowly when using  
ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when  
an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that  
the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using  
ParkSense.

ð
NOTE:  
The LaneSense system is operational at speeds above  
37 mph (60 km/h) and below 93 mph (150 km/h).  
The LaneSense system uses a forward facing camera  
to detect lane markings and measure vehicle position  
within the lane boundaries.  
NOTE:  
Once active, the system will operate when the following  
conditions are met:  
The driver maintains at least one hand on the  
steering wheel at all times.  
LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED  
TURNING LANESENSE ON OR OFF  
The vehicle's speed falls within the range of 37 mph  
to 93 mph (60 km/h to 150 km/h).  
LANESENSE OPERATION  
The LaneSense button is located on the end  
of the turn signal stalk, located on the left  
side of the steering column.  
The lane is marked on at least one side.  
Visibility conditions are appropriate.  
The LaneSense system utilizes a windshield-mounted  
camera to identify lane boundaries and determine the  
car’s position within those boundaries, ensuring it stays  
within the lane.  
To turn the LaneSense system on, push the  
LaneSense button once. A “Lane Sense On” message is  
shown in the instrument cluster display.  
The road is straight or with wide radius bends.  
The turn signal is not engaged in the same direction  
as the lane departure.  
When one of the lane markings are detected and the  
driver drifts out of the lane (no turn signal applied),  
the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning in  
the form of torque applied to the steering wheel to  
prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries.  
If the driver continues to drift out of the lane, the  
LaneSense system provides a visual warning through  
the instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to  
remain within the lane boundaries.  
To turn the LaneSense system off, push the LaneSense  
button twice within 5 seconds.  
NOTE:  
The system will not apply torque to the steering wheel  
whenever a safety system engages. (Anti-Lock Brakes,  
Traction Control System, Electronic Stability Control, Full  
Brake Control system, etc.).  
On some models, when LaneSense is disabled, a  
message along with a warning light will be displayed  
on the instrument cluster display.  
NOTE:  
LANESENSE WARNING MESSAGE  
The LaneSense system alerts the driver when the  
car drifts out of its lane by displaying symbols and  
messages on the instrument panel display.  
The system will retain the last state (on or off) that  
was active during engine shut down. The next time the  
engine is started, the system will either be active or  
stay off.  
NOTE:  
The torque applied to the steering wheel by the system  
is sufficient for the driver to notice it, but always limited,  
so that they can easily override it. The driver may  
manually override the haptic warning by applying force  
to the steering wheel at any time.  
While the system is in operation and hasn't detected  
the lane boundaries, the lane lines appear in grey, and  
a specific icon is displayed in the dedicated upper  
section of the display.

NOTE:  
Single Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected  
NOTE:  
Based on the various conditions it detects, the  
system can grab the driver's attention by modifying  
the characteristics of the lane identification lines on  
the display. Specifically, it can change their color  
(from white to yellow and vice versa) and make them  
flash. Additionally, the system adjusts the color of  
the car icon displayed on the screen as needed.  
When the system is active and has detected only  
the left lane, the car icon is displayed in the  
dedicated area of the screen. In this state, the  
system is prepared to deliver visual warnings in case  
of unintentional lane departure to the left (with no  
direction indicator activation).  
The LaneSense system operates with similar  
behavior for a right lane departure when only the  
right lane marking has been detected.  
The system will only provide visual warnings and will  
not make steering corrections to realign the car's  
path.  
When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift  
situation, the left lane line turns solid yellow. The  
LaneSense telltale changes from solid green to solid  
yellow. At this time torque is applied to the steering  
wheel in the opposite direction of the lane boundary.  
As the system detects the car's proximity to the lane  
line, the left lane line on the display turns yellow,  
and the car icon displayed also turns yellow. If the  
system detects that the car is approaching the lane  
line and is about to cross it, the left lane line (in  
yellow) flashes, and the car icon displayed also turns  
yellow.  
Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected  
When the LaneSense system is on, the lane lines  
turn from gray to white to indicate that both of the  
lane markings have been detected. The LaneSense  
telltale is solid green when both lane markings have  
been detected and the system is ready to provide  
visual warnings in the instrument cluster display and  
a torque warning in the steering wheel if a lane  
departure occurs.  
For example: If approaching the left side of the lane  
the steering wheel will turn to the right.

note will disappear. The ParkView camera is located on  
the rear of the vehicle on the boot tailgate.  
Once the conditions restricting the system's functions  
are resolved, it will return to its normal and complete  
operation. However, if the fault continues, it's advisable  
to get in touch with an authorized dealer for further  
assistance.  
No Hands On Steering Wheel Detection  
When the system detects the absence of hands on  
the steering wheel during active system intervention, it  
will initiate a series of escalating visual and acoustic  
warnings. This process will span 15 seconds, with the  
goal of prompting the driver to place their hands back  
on the steering wheel.  
Lane Sensed (Solid  
Yellow Line/Solid Yellow Telltale)  
When the LaneSense system senses the lane  
has been approached and is in a lane departure  
situation, the left lane line flashes yellow (on/off).  
The LaneSense telltale changes from solid yellow to  
flashing yellow. At this time torque is applied to the  
steering wheel in the opposite direction of the lane  
boundary.  
Back Up Camera Location  
If the driver does not return their hands to the  
wheel within this 15-second window, the system will  
disengage and issue an additional warning lasting 5  
seconds.  
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with  
camera delay turned off, the rear camera mode is  
exited and the navigation or audio screen appears  
again.  
System Fault  
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with  
camera delay turned on, the camera image will  
continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds unless  
the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the  
vehicle is shifted into PARK, or the ignition is placed  
in the OFF position.  
If the system deactivates and displays a message on  
the instrument cluster display, it signifies a fault within  
the system. It is still possible to drive the car, but it is  
strongly recommended that you contact an authorized  
dealer.  
For example: If approaching the left side of the lane  
the steering wheel will turn to the right.  
System Limited Operation Warning  
If a dedicated message appears on the display, it  
could indicate a condition that limits the system's  
operation. Possible reasons for this limitation include  
an obstruction blocking the camera's view or a system  
fault.  
A touchscreen button to disable the camera is available  
when the vehicle is not in REVERSE. Display of the  
camera image after shifting out of REVERSE can be  
disabled via Uconnect Settings.  
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA  
The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera allows you to see  
an on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your  
vehicle when the gear selector is put into REVERSE.  
The image will be displayed on the touchscreen display  
along with a note to “Check Entire Surroundings”  
across the top of the screen. After five seconds this  
If an obstruction is detected, clean the area of the  
windshield near the interior rearview mirror and verify  
if the message disappears. Even if the car can still be  
When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on the  
image to illustrate the width of the vehicle and its  
projected back up path based on the steering wheel  
position.
